    Hello, I am a newbie to buzztv, so please bare with me. I have recently bought a buzztv X5 box. I have always had firecubes and used kodi to stream. I am having a bad problem with my X5 and streaming. Anything I stream has terrible blooming & artifacts. I am using good streams from real-debrid & I have very high download speed. I can play the same streams on the firecube with excellent quality. I spent the money for the X5 for an upgrade. If someone could please help, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you

  8. I have three U5's that have been working perfectly. Suddenly yesterday, 2 of them are throwing a bad username/password error when trying to get on to my MAC server. The thing is the server uses the MAC addresses of my devices to authenticate, NOT usernames and passwords. I emailed the provider and they say nothing changed on their end but they reset my account nevertheless. No improvement. Any ideas?

    My XRS4500 buzz box recently updated to Buzz tv 5. Since then, I am having issues streaming with Peacock tv and Disney + apps. buzz box kernel is 4.9.113, Sept 16, 2022 build V20220919.20220919 test-keys peacock version is 4.7.11, released July 12, 223 Error message is “Player Error unexpected fatal error :CVF_VSF:AMCR:4:1:2” my XR4000 is running Buzz TV 4, same version of Peacock and it works great. I have replicated the sound setting from the XR4000 but it made no difference.

    Every time I change stations using the BuzzTV 5 app I get this message : Timeshift error: not enough storage space on the default storage. I have the 128GB model, which has 115 GB free, so storage space shouldn't be an issue. What's up with this, and how do I make this warning go away? Thanks!

    I have had the BuzzTv X5 128gb for over a year now. But since yesterday when I turn it on it keeps flickering the "buzztv 5 logo". That's all it does. I think my hard drive is full thats why it's happening. How do I reset my box? There are no buttons on it. Thanks

    have an X5 running the March..23? 28? version. It'll boot up, I can watch tv for about 5 minutes, when it will just reboot. No error message, no warning at all. Even if i leave it sitting at the dashboard/home screen, after about 5 minutes it just reboots. My handler/provider (aka the guy I bought the box from) said it sounds like it got a bad update or got rebooted mid-update. I tried erasing all data and reinitializing. No love. I'd try re-flashing the basic image, but no idea where one downloads that or what the process is, and my guy is busy this weekend so I can't just swing down to his place and have him re-image it... Any suggestions? Thanks Ma…

    Anyone else having issues with their box shutting down and restarting, over and over, can’t even press anything. I’ve restarted and tried to unplug for a few seconds, but it keeps happening, then it will stop. (Happens at random). I have a xr4500 version 5.0.796, I’ve had nothing but problems since switching to buzz5, any help on to why the shutdowns and start ups keep happening?

    I have set recordings for two daily shows Monday to Friday by pushing the record button while the show is on and editing the days and times. My sever runs a bit long on shows about three minutes and I am missing the end of the shows. Is there a way to edit these scheduled recording times or to remove and redo these daily scheduled recordings? I have an XR4500 running BuzzTV 5. Any help would be appreciated.
