I recently picked up the Clasic AI, was hopeful, but not impressed. Bug city, I have the random reboot issue, that others are complaining about, my box also freezes on the guide screen, and has to be rebooted to get out. It randomly reboots about every hour or two max. The only setting that I have changed, is turning on Timeshift. With Timeshift on it freezes on the guide screen nine times out of ten, and has to be rebooted. None of these issues have anything to do with my service, or me changing any settings, it is solely to do with hardware and Buzztv 6 software. I also have two other Buzztv boxes, a B5 and a Buzztv Saro GT-5000, both will not do Timeshift, if I activate Timeshift very shortly after I get this error "timeshift error stream not available". The GT-5000 randomly ejects the external drive making recording hit and miss at best. I bought these boxes solely to stream IPTV, not to game or run other apps.

Yes, I know that the B5 is more entry level, we just wanted to test the service and the equipment before we make a bigger commitment. I am new to the IPTV thing, but have no problem stepping up to the latest and greatest that Buzztv has to offer. I am getting the service thru a good friend, that owns an ISP, so I am paying nothing for the service and have unlimited connections. I am suspicious that I have some settings not correct as it worked perfectly for a few weeks, before this problem. I did try a factory reset with no luck. I will try a high endurance microSD card, and report back. Thanks to all for the input, I appreciate it.

I don't get a chance to rewind, the stream freezes the error pops up, and the stream becomes unwatchable as it freezes over and over again followed by the error. Eventually, it may start to stream normally, but if we try to rewind(after20+ minutes of continuous play) it jumps back a few seconds and that's it, then we get the error and more freezing. If we pause, it will pause but when we resume it plays for a few seconds and jumps to the current time.

It does not.

Fully updated B5, tried an 1 terabyte ssd, a 64 gig jump drive, all formatted by the B5. Live TV won't timeshift, and freezes after a few mins and flashes "timeshift error stream not available". Only had the box about a month, time shift worked great first 2 weeks, now not at all. Live TV works flawlessly with timeshift off. Checked the forum here, tried all the recommended fixes, but still no luck.
