How to turn off the HDMI2 popup that keeps happening every 15 minutes?

I purchased a LG OLED TV in December 2017.  It is great, except for one annoyance. Every 15 minutes, a  HDMI2 popup appears in the center of the screen. It disappears after a few seconds.  This repeats ad infinitum.  My TV connections are  very simple.  One coax cable input to the Cable Box.   HDMI output from the Cable Box  to the TV's HDMI1 input.   The coax output from the Cable Box is connected to a Magnavox DVR.  The DVR is connected to the TV's  HDMI2 input .   The DVR is "off" when we watch normal TV on the HDMI1.   I've searched the internet for a solution, without success.  Any ideas?

That pops up when a devices screen changes, which is connected to hdmi2. I am not to sure how to turn it off but it might be the dvr sending some sort of Audio or visual output. Turn off the dvr at the plug and it shouldn’t do that.

      For the love of... please allow me to turn off that annoying remote pointer on the tv
      By u84six
      I haven't searched this forum, but there has to be others who find that tv remote pointer to be extremely annoying. I'm actually surprised that we still can't turn that feature off. Having the cursor/pointer feature isn't even close to the importance of being able to shut off. I mean, how hard is to put one checkbox in the ui to toggle the feature on or off? It seems like a no-brainer, big bang for the buck change that many users would appreciate

      LG TV keeps logging me out
      By sbal
      So sick of this stupid piece of crap TV. Every couple of days, the TV logs me out of my LG account and I can't use the IPTV channels.
      Besides how incredibly and utterly stupid it is to require a f'in "account" to watch TV, when I go to log back in on the TV or the app (again I can't believe I need to download a f'in app to watch TV) it doesn't work. I need to change the location to Canada, reboot the TV, change the location back to US, reboot the TV, and then I can log in and am presented with the "terms and conditions" I need to accept (for the love of God why in the f'ing world do I need to accept terms and conditions to watch f'in television!?!?!?!). Then I click "Accept All" and everything works, for a few days, until it logs me out again for no reason and I need to go through the entire circus again
      The TV is hard wired to Ethernet, so it's not a wifi issue. It's on a battery backup so it's not a power interruption issue. Anyone know how to fix this? This last time I went into the menu and the account and clicked the "Check Terms and Conditions" and there was a entry on the bottom with the green check mark so I clicked "Accept" on that one, I'm hoping that does it?
      Needless to say there is no way I would ever consider for even a second buying another LG product, I will never give another dollar to a company that makes products so incredibly hostile to customers. but I spent a lot of $$ on this TV and I'm going to be stuck with it for a while so I am hoping this is fixable, despite how utterly ridiculous neededing to have an account or accept terms and conditions to use a device I bought and own

      Homekit won't turn TV on
      By yippie_kiyay
      My new LG TV (65UM6900PUA) running WebOS 04.71.25 works great with HomeKit, with the exception that it is not reachable while it is turned off. If I try to turn it on in the home app, it says "No Response."  I have changed the 'Turn on via Wi-Fi' setting to on, and it will turn on from the 'LG TV Plus' app, but not from the iOS home app. Is there a specific setting or something I need to change?
