  2. I am using a xrs4500 box and when I set my video on demand to use external player (mx player) the movie is not marked as played after I watch it. This is a problem for TV series as I need to remember which episodes I have already seen. Any idea why this doesn't work.

  3. I am using a xrs4500 box and the screen saver kicks in when I'm on the home screen but never activates when I'm watching live TV or vod. I often need to pause live TV or a movie, sometimes for a long time while I handle a phone call but the screen stays active while paused. Any thoughts on this?

  4. Hi all. I am having a problem that I cannot seem to resolve. I moved recently, just 2 doors down, same apartment complex. Literally, the neighbor on one side is still my neighbor- i'm just on the other side of them now. I forgot to change my address with ATT but I just brought my router with me and plugged it in and everything seemed ok. Then it stopped working. I called, had to stop service at my old place and set up and completely new account. Did so. They sent me a new router, connected, everything worked. Except it has their weird alphabet soup name for my network and equally clumsy password. I changed the network name and password and now I am c…

    Hello I'm having issues with the Buzz TV 4 app that's integrated into The BuzzTv XRS 4500 Android Box in which everytime I connect to one of my IPTV services about 10 minutes later I get disconnected along with receiving a error message that stats that the app is unable to communicate with the server. However everytime this happens all of my connections gets disabled as well meaning that i'm unable to use any other app like Tivimate unless I wait 7 minutes. Also I'm using the streaming line option along with using http://app.streamztv.watch:8080

    Firstly, I am a noob with these boxes ... I am running an XRS4500 with FW: V20220919 and IPTV version: 5.0.906. After watching for a few hours I get glitching or freezing ... by the 3rd period of a hockey game it is almost unwatchable. I have tried other channels but it is the same. After a restart of the modem, and the BuzzTV box itself it is good again for another few hours again. Has anyone else experienced this? Suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    Since the new update, 5.0.893 one of my servers refuses to load. I keep getting message above. Checked with provider, and the person taking care of my account has no issue. I've rebooted even done a factory reset. Just won't load. Any suggestions?

    A friend recently bought a 4500 from the Global website. It came with a BT-300 remote and she asked me how to get the backlight to work. Once she connected it via bluetooth, she now has to remove the batteries everytime she wants to turn it on. Once on, it works perfectly. Not sure what the issue could be? Is there a button she may have hit or do I need to tell her to contact buzz support? Been about 6 weeks since she bought it. Thanks

    Hi , I have xrs4500 max and it's remote has suddenly stopped working. I have tried every possible thing to fix it.

  20. I just reinstalled my XRS4500 on another TV and was trying to download my downloader app onto the device. I use to have it on here but after and update it quit working sometime ago. Now it says that it will not work for this device. Does anybody know why? It downloads on my X5 just fine and all my other devices.. There are other versions of downloader available but I am needing the Downloader aftvnews version.

  21. Hi. I have used my xrs4500 boxes for over a year. When I press the guide button. The guide pops up and lists the channels. But the fields that populates what is playing on each channel at each time slot loads slowly. The information would load each channel at a time, it would take about 1 second to load the information on each channel. So when this happens I press the guide and watch and wait as the information for each channel loaded. If I scroll down or up, the new channels that appear display information loading. And the information for each channel would take 1 second to load and they load 1 at time. As you can seen it takes a long time just to scroll through a s…
