rsheinly,

I can definitely understand why it would be frustrating. Our Hopper has 3 tuners built in. Once those 3 tuners are being used, you can only view one of the other tuners. To change channel, select one of the tuners being watch and then proceed to change the channel.

If you have any other questions or need any other assistance let me know!
