5.0 Resume/Audio issues
I have the same problem with the video. Turning off "start in live TV" in power options got rid of the freezing wheel, but you need to hit the live TV button after coming out of standby to refresh the picture. That gets you back online right away when using the secondary player, which works better than the default. I believe this is being looked into.

Are we the offline conversation with BuxxTV?

Thanks nbs. I sent them a polite e-mail saying that I followed their suggestion to contact stbtalk, and they referred me back to BuzzTV, as was their app that needed fixing. Unfortunately, they can't fix it, as they are using a free weather service from an outside source. I will pm allaboutbuzz later and see what he thinks. Thanks to all for your help. Regards, Dave J.

Did their weather app guys supply the beta team with the app? If so I will send them a copy of the transcript and see what they have to say.

If it's part of the beta I'm sure it will be resolved at some point. It is one of those small details that might not show up often since it is location specific. Thanks.

Just updating this post. I e-mailed BuzzTV support to follow up on my April 13th chat with them on this issue, and they've now told me that I should contact stbtalk about help with this. Seems I'm back to square 1. Is the weather app (widget) part of the Buzz5 beta?

Screen Saver
Thanks for your reply. Under PVR Options, I don't have the Auto Shut Off feature on version 5.0.701. I do have the shut-off feature under the menu / configuration, and from your comments I now understand how that works. When I turn the system on after recording the night before, I'm usually tuned to the live TV channel that was recording (which auto changed from the live channel I was watching prior to going standby). Should I assume that after I do a scheduled recording that the system no longer is using the internet until I push the LiveTV button?

I gave it a try; no luck. Set the recording and powered off the box. At the scheduled time box powered up, and recorded the show. When the recording was finished, the box did not power off, or go into standby. That was not the result I wanted.

Got it! I'll give that a try. Thanks nbs.

Screen Saver
What I am trying to do for recording when I am away from home is automate that process. The screen saver feature would appear capable of doing exactly that. The question is, is this a working feature on the box, or is it something that hasn't been implemented?

Is there a setting that will do that if I'm away for the weekend?

Screen Saver
Good afternoon; On the BuzzTV 5 beta settings there is a screen saver feature which would allow for a screen saver to take affect after a set time of inactivity, or put the device to sleep after a set amount of time. I haven't been able to make this feature work, and I believe it would be great for putting the box in either standby or off after recording with the PVR. Setting record will bring the box out of standby at the set time, so going back to standby when finished would save wasting data when away from home. Can someone please comment or advise? Thanks.

Update: I conversed with Buzz on this issue, and in a nutshell, they feel that the app is getting its info for Georgetown CA from an incorrect source. Their dev team have sent this info to the weather app creators to check on this. Once they establish the right source for the weather information the problem will correct itself. BuzzTV's service is very good to deal with!

I noticed on the Home Screen that my location in the weather screen is shown as Georgetown CA, instead of Georgetown ON. It shows the current temp as +27C, but in Georgetown CA it is +2C, and at my location it's +12C. Is there a way to set the weather location on the box to match my true location? Thanks.

Audio Stream Question
On two occasions I've turned on my xrs4500, and the audio stream starts, then the live TV with audio starts. I have two audio streams at the same time; the first audio about 3 seconds behind the audio with video. If I change the channel I get the new audio and video, but the first audio doesn't stop or change. I'm using the Buzz5 beta, live TV set to default player, VOD on secondary, power on set to start in live TV (but off in configuration/settings). I can't figure out what's causing this, does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Live TV Secondary Player Issue
I upgraded my xrs4500 to BuzzTV 5 beta, and everything appears to be working with the exception of live tv. If I use the secondary player (this was the default setting on the box), when starting the box the channel bar opens, but the stream doesn't load (spinning circle). When I switch to the default player the channels load properly, but there is a noticeable delay when changing channels; almost like a short freeze in the stream. I have done a hard reset, cleared all the caches, but I can't resolve this problem. Does anyone have any suggestions?
