I've seen that screen when trying to run it using the USB in the tv rather than plugging directly into the wall. The screen would "complete" and then it would cycle right back and do it again. I took it out of the tv and plugged it back in and used the wall power and it worked fine. Try it on a different tv maybe and see what happens.

I'll try that. It was initially plugged into a surge protector when I first got it to turn on. Then I plugged it directly into the wall and had the same issue. I do have the stick actually plugged directly into my XBox One and access it through that machine. It worked fine when I first set it up this way. I don't have any other open HDMI ports on my TV so this made the most sense for me. I'll try and connect directly to the TV in the front room as well as another room to see if that makes any sort of difference.

Side question but have you found a good way to do this with OUT using 2 remotes? I have the same setup but with an amazon fire TV stuck in the HDMI IN of the xbox one. My issue is that my harmony remote controls the Xbox but I'm forced to use the Amazon Fire remote if we swap over to HDMI in through the TV Guide app.

First world problems, I know, but still annoying.
