    I am in the process of moving my Favorites TV channels in BuzzTV 5 to different locations to better organize them using the Organize Favorites app. On Buzz TV 4 I checked on a “user preferred” button that was located in Sort, but in Buzz TV 5 I only see By number, Name and Favorites icons. None of those buttons attach my organized channel list to my Favorites EPG list. Is there another location for the user preferred option? Do you know where that icon is located or how to move the organized Favorites to the Favorites TV guide? I was able to successfully move some items in the Categories list.

    Please don't ban me already for this post,,!!! Can Buzztv add features like (HDhomerun DVR or TabloTv units) that allows you to scan and record OTA channels...if course with an OTA antenna and 3.0 tuners. They work with android devices but the add features would allow recording multiple local and OTA simultaneously. I am not sure if this can be added to the Buzz 5 or 6 app or added to a new stb design. Thank you

  9. I was having issue with my BuzzTV XRS4500 running BuzzTV 4, they were software related issues such as lagging, and the app taking up too much storage space. I been meaning to reset it for some time but waited till a good chance. I finally did a factory reset 2 weeks ago. To my amazement, the box downloaded Buzz TV 5 client, This was not my goal but I guess some how it was finally released from beta. It looks different than buzztv 4, some features work much better including the rewind live tv and the recording capabilities. So far it gets my thumbs up.

    Hi, I’m thinking of buying a buzz tv box but have a few queries before I take the plunge? 1. Does the buzz tv app have an auto frame rate option? 2. In terms of buffer limit, what are the options on Buzztv? E.g. can I set it at 0 seconds so there is no buffer or is there a minimum limit? 3. Multiple portals. If I add multiple portals/services, do they all appear together in one list or will I need to switch between them? 4. Does the Buzztv app automatically load/open when powering on the device? 5. Does the Buzztv app automatically load/open when bringing the box out of standby? I ask this as some competing boxes do not have this option, the…

  14. Been having to deal with this very annoying pop up message lately whenever switching or closing apps; "Too many request". Just erased and reset the box, message was still one of the first things to pop up on a complete fresh setup. Also, now the channel menu is bold blue and functions a bit different, guess I'll just get used to it. But the "Too many request" message needs to go. Any suggestions?

    The more i learn all the features and get used to my U5, the more i love it. This is a terrific Streaming box. Even after i buy your newest tech, i will keep the U5 as my standby. At first it was nothing but headaches because i'm a tech idiot. But once i figured out what the hell i was doing, i fell in love with the box. I have forgotten my XRS4500 and my Firestick4k.

    When recording, BuzzTV tells me the recording will stop if I change channels. However, I have max 2 connections with my provider. The account info screen confirms this, and also says one active connection. Is it possible to change channels while recording and does this feature need to be enabled?

  23. Can anyone help me with sounds settings? Background noise is too loud and I can not hear voices. Sound is only coming from my TV. I did increase the treble and lower the bass on my TV and it did help a bit. I also changed from stadium, to music, etc and found the best one there. (I don't have any other settings on my TV like Dynamic range to adjust so that's why I went with treble and bass). In the buzzbox I went into settings and then "audio output". I played around with DTS Sounds and ended up going with 80% and this seems to help. Under "Sound" - system sounds in turned on and I can not toggle any of the other options under "Select formats". Does anyone have any other…
