  6. So my neighbour was having video issue with freezing on live TV (*****). This is only happening on certain TV brands, one being Sony the other LG both smart. All of his other neighbour with different brand are fine. We tried switching video format in configuration from Automatic to TS and it works well now. Question is should I tell him to run HLS or TS. I am wondering if it's certain TV's don't work well with the Automatic feature?

    I cannot figure out (not tech savvy) how to get the tv guide up and how to search for tv channels and save as favorites inside the tv guide. And, when I click LiveTV I get options like MAC! I don't have a clue what this is! Thanks

    VOD and TV Series have been showing the same programs for the last week. Not showing any programs that have aired since then (i.e., new episodes or movies from the last week or so). Have checked for updates, rebooted and cleared cache.

  11. I'm running into an error both on live TV and vod. I have a BuzzTV 5 and am using the default buzztv app. Checking online they were recommendations to switch from primary and backup for live TV or VOD (under settings > configuration > livetv/vod). I tried both with no success. I have also rebooted the box multiple times, cleared cache, rebooted my router and again no success. Confirmed that the box is running on the latest update. Current firmware version: V20240918 Current IPTV version: 5.0.938 The problem just started in the last month and started off as intermittent. I would run into the error one day and not the next. But now for the la…

    I have an XRS4900 box. I'm receiving a message at the the bottom of my screen that says. "Media format is not supported." I'm unable to watch LiveTV. However, I am able to view VOD. I've contacted tech support. They sent an system update. But, the update didn't solve the problem. Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, any suggestions on how to resolve this issue.

  13. Is there a digital/printable user manual available for the B5 and/or remote?

    I want to save a show that i missed yesterday. But I don't know where is the option to save a show inside BuzzTV5 after it's been aired, or to play the show via media player. And i refuse to pay for a TiviMate license to do that because I can't get the server to work properly. I tried to record the catchup show, but it just records to the live TV and NOT the catchup.

  15. I see the keyboard but starting off the "t' on the keyboard, I can only move left for about 3 letters left of the t and sometimes on level down form the t the left a few spaces thus O can;t enter anything into it thus I can't search for what I am looking for. Seems like a bug...maybe a bad remote download? Keyboard works everywhere else.

    Hello, I recently purchased 2 BT-350 remotes for my Buzz TV classic boxes. For some reason when you click the microphone button it doesn't do voice search. Instead it loads the search section. If you click the search button it doesn't search or do anything. Any ideas?

    Looking to get a reasonably-priced buzz box. I noticed that most Buzz boxes include either 2 GB or 4 GB of RAM. Does 4 GB make a lot of difference in terms of box performance? The box would mostly be used for watching subscription service. Maybe will stream some Kodi too.

    I have an X5 with all the latest updates. A few days ago, my wife's favorite channel started asking for a password to unlock it before it will display. Also, a new entry list right under Favorites appeared labeld Locked Channels which contains 1 channel (wife's favorite). The channel plays fine in TiviMate, so I assume this is a Buzz constraint -- maybe a parental control. We have never setup any parental controls as a 2 adult household, so have no known password to unlock it. Is there a default P/W in case something was done inadvertently to lock the channel ? Is there any way to remove the lock on this 1 channel without knowing the password ? Any help would…

    I recently purchased 2 X5 buzz TV Boxes and have tried to install only the first one and I'm doing so I had forgotten my password and tried entering what I thought was my password! During the setup now it'll find my wifi network but to move on further it keeps saying invalid password! I now have the correct password but I'm not able to input it as it will not ask for the password! I haven't tried installing and activating the second box as I would like to get the first one operational before doing so! Need help? I contacted buzz tv via email help line they haven't been able to help and have not replied recently!! Frustrating

    The buzztv app is opening multiple connections to my iptv server (like 7 at a time), and I’m being kicked out of my iptv server because I cannot have more than 2 connections at a time. Everything says I’m updated to latest updates on the box. Anyone know it’s opening multiple instances of itself in the background?

    (I read all the caveats of the effort to add externally mounted storage, but still asking…) I’ve grown to two U5s now. I’ve moved to usb-networking the backup and restore to keep program guides and preferences syncd. as a step 1: it would be really nice if all your stbs could share their backup somewhere in the cloud. At least to keep my shows syncd etc. as a step 2: more ambitious would be accessing and storing or backing up to a nas for external access. maybe I just haven’t spent enough time in android and there is a way to do this that isn’t perfect but would work using off the shelf apps? Thanks!
