  1. I am not finding how to force my X5 to update to the latest firmware via a USB. Their chat said it is possible. I am not having luck finding a step by step process.

    When I try to schedule a recording past midnight, it will give an error when over 00:00. Example if PVR starts at 23:30 and ends at 00:30. It will not accept 00:30. This was corrected in a previous update, but the new one has the problem again. There is still a problem with SCHEDULING over 1/2 hour. It will only record 30 minutes.

  3. Hello, I hope that I put this topic in the right place. I have a BuzzTV X5 Special Edition device, and have tried everything that I am aware of to get my channels to load from my playlist. It has worked intermittently, however whenever I restart my device I cannot get the channels to load again. The screen briefly says "loading channels", then I receive an error message, Which I have attached pictures of below. My provider told me to uae, XC API, which I have done, and I've also tried the M3U method with the same sporadic results. I really like the device, but I purchased it primarily for its Live TV app, which so far I have hardly be…

    I set a new X5 up for my parents and it will not power off when they push the power button. Everything has the latest versions. I even tried turning cec off and no change. Any ideas? It affects their epg unless they do a refresh everyday, plus it should be powered down when not being used. Thanks in advance.

    Hello, There is a problem with the sound going all the way and can’t be controlled with the remote. A message pops up saying to use a tv remote to adjust volume. Notice this happens on channels with a 5.1 sorround sound. Running the latest update.

  7. There are specific sports game we (try to) record. We schedule the recordings for the future, and then suspend the box. After the game has aired, we check on the recording, and for around half of the recordings we make, the recordings are cut off far sooner than it's supposed to. For example, we set it to record a 2.5 hour game, but it will only record the first 0.5-2 hours of the game. We are using XC (single stream in a premium service), recording to a fast and new external TF SD card. Side note: Strangely, the other day we tried recording 2 different sport events (airing at the same time on different channels) and both recordings worked (recorded both events succe…

    Does anyone use a universal remote that works with a Buzz X5 and can control at least 3 other devices. ? My Harmony universal IR remote, which I have been using successfully with the Buzz X5, A/V Receiver, and TV for many years has failed (and Harmony has now exited the universal remote business). I have ordered a couple of high-rated universal remotes on Amazon, but they do not have Buzz as one of their many media streaming devices in their code library (none allow you to view their code library before purchase). I'm sure the Buzz X5 might respond to the code for one of the other streamers, TVs or other media devices controlled, but trying all the availab…

    Hi everyone, Just wanted to mention that the BuzzTV X5 128AI has made a great step front. Since last update we now can pause, rewind,forward. That is great news, but regarding recording we have to view the channel we are recording or lived it open overnight for recording. Is it me not understanding the settings or it's the way it is. Thanks Gilles

    Hello all, I'm having an issue I'm hoping someone can shed some light on. A few days ago, I made some PVR recordings that were saved to Micro SD. I checked the recordings afterwards, and they seemed fine (they played back when you click on them, can fast-forward, etc). Using the Files app, I noticed that the recordings were saved on the Micro SD in the Android/Media directory. Today, I wanted to transfer the recordings to my desktop. In the PVR, the recordings are still listed, but there is no thumbnail, and when I try to play the files I get a "stream not available" message. I checked the Micro SD, and the "media" directory is no longer there. Does anybody…

    We're getting some intermittent "stuttering" on our box. By stutter I mean when watching a streamed video on Kodi, every 5 minutes or so, the video will freeze for a second (then resume). Sound is unaffected. This occurs regardless if the stream is high or low quality. I checked online and someone suggested to set Kodi Adjust display refresh rate to “on start/stop”, but that didn’t help We also have the same thing occurring for VOD/TV-SERIES, but I don't know if that's a separate issue or not. I've been unable to fix these issues, so advice is requested. Thanks in advance!

    I have removed all paired devices except the remote and bluetooth speakers. The only thing I do with this box is watch videos in Kodi - not streamed, they're all downloaded. So, Kodi is the only app that I've loaded and run, the box still keeps skipping audio. I have an Amazon Alexa Echo Dot in the same room, it does not exhibit audio skipping. I've paired multiple bluetooth speakers to the buzztv, they all have audio skipping. When the buzztv starts up it shows a window that says "IO Exception". I don't know if this has any bearing on my bluetooth issue. If this device truly has bluetooth 5.0 installed, I should see great signal performance in my 20' room,…

  19. I'm on a trial with a supplier and I'm setup to get timeshift. On all its channels I can't do rewind forward pause. It respond ( Stream is not available try again later) On XC/API some channels are not accessible but a lot are ok. So how does that work?? Is a supplier have access to choose what if we want to use timeshift. Or the channels as the ability to decide if we can use timeshift or not? Just to be sure I have included 2 pictures to show my settings. Thanks for your help

  20. I bought and am trying to set up a BuzzTV X5 64 AX-C with an Ethernet connection. When I am trying to set up the connection via Setup/Network & Internet menu. The Ethernet screen shows "Not Connected". I have also installed a MoCA network as shown in the attached file. The MoCA device (Hitron HT-EM4) does show that the ethernet is connected to the X5. The X5 is currently connected to and working on the WiFi network without issue. Just a little slow. Any troubleshooting or connection advice is appreciated.

What's the difference between them because what I've seen the first one doesn't have a backup/restore option and the other one does. I thought they were the same. I just did an update on the first one the newer one (mentioned up top) and in the configuration settings app settings the backup & restore option is not showing up but it is on the second one which is 1 year older than the first one mentioned
