  5. Hi all. I hope you can help me with my problem. As the title alludes, my unit freezes, plays a second or two, freezes again, plays a couple of seconds, freezes, continually. On most channels. I only watch rugby (South Africa and New Zealand channels) and news channels, but it's doing this for all channels. I've restarted the box over and over again. Thank you for your help. Incidentally, is there a tips and tricks thread somewhere that I can peruse so that I don't have to start a thread for each issue? Thanks again.

    We have 2 remotes and we cannot get either of them to communicate with the box. Both have new batteries, bluetooth on, have tried to reprogram, neither remotes seem to have any effect on the box. Will work with our old box in a different room. Can get mini keyboard to communicate, but uses the little usb chip to do so. Not sure what to try next? Any suggestions are appreciated.

    I am struggling to get HDMI-CEC to work. I want to be able to power on/off my TV using the Buzztv remote. I have enabled CEC Switch on the XRS4900 but it is still not picking up my Samsung TV (55” QN94A Neo QLED 4K HDR Smart TV 2021) I've also tried enabling CEC on the Samsung TV to see if that helps, but still nothing. Are there any tips or tricks you can recommend?

    Hello, Recently got an XRS4900 and have to say I am loving it. Such a huge upgrade over a Firestick for IPTV. I'm a Buzztv convert. Question I have is about the optimal display settings for my model of Samsung TV, a 55” QN94A Neo QLED 4K HDR Smart TV (2021). The Samsung manual says it supports YCbCr444 on HDMI port 4, which I have the Buzztv box plugged into. Is there any reason why I shouldn't set the Color Space Setting on the Buzztv box to YCbCr444 in that case? The goal is to get the most out of the TV and the box but I don't know a great deal about color settings in particular so some advice would be much appreciated. I have also set the HDR polic…

    Does the XRS4900 have a backup / restore feature? And if it does where do I find it?

    Using the provided Primary Player selection results in some channels not to load, some local channel links as in ABC Baltimore. Error comes up "Timeshift Error Media Not Supported" If you select the Backup Player selection, the error goes away and you can view those channels now, however another issue developed on this Player option which is an Audio Loss intermitting if the stream pauses for a second or during a fast action video event the audio disappears, video stays. If you change channels and come back, the audio is restored. Same issue with my U5 too. Firmware 2.220914 connected direct to router via cat5

    I have an issue with my XRS4900 since the update. I’ve paired the remote and it works when the box is on. But if I power off the box (using the remote) I can’t turn it back on. The only way to turn it on is to unplug the box, and plug it back in. Then it boots up and the remote will work for everything else. But if I turn it off, I have to repeat the same unplugging replugging cycle. I never had this issue before the update. Any suggestions? Thanks
