Hello! Several questions/issues that I've ran in to. I have the Mi Box for my bedroom, and Nvidia Shield in the living room hooked up to HDHomerun.

Mi Box CEC issue. The chromecast we had hooked up to the bedroom tv would auto turn on the TV, as well as tune to the correct input when casted to. The Mi Box will not turn the tv on at all. On any of the inputs. Cast to it, press the power button, press the back or home buttons. Nothing triggers it to turn the tv on like the chromecast did. It's an LG TV and the only option for CEC (Simplink) is on or off, and it's set to on.

The volume on the Mi Box remote controls volume in every app I've tried, EXCEPT for HDHomerun. I'd like to solely use the mi box remote for volume, so this is an issue when switching between PS Vue app and HDHomerun. Any clue what's causing this?

HDHomerun DVR features. Every night since getting the HDHomerun hooked up to the Shield, it's worked great IN THE LIVING ROOM. But when we go to bed, HDHomerun isn't showing DVR features on the Mi box. So I can only watch live TV, no recordings. Same issue if I check on my phone. When I wake up in the morning, it's working like normal and I can pause, watch recordings, etc. Any clue what may be causing this? It's really annoying if we go to bed planning on watching a recording, then find out we can't. I tried troubleshooting the first night, resetting both devices, and it seems like it just randomly comes back. It makes no sense :(
The Chromecast only turned on the TV when plugged i to the USB port. The mi box connects via HDMI , did you run the USB to the TV too to see if that works?
Try using instaTV instead of HD HR. It's pulls from here but it has a different interface.
