Buzz 6 with my provider is still having issues (live channels now have strange repeating instead of streaming error messages) so I am using Buzz 5 until fixed.  Just pointing out differences I thought could work on 5 without going back to my 4900😞

that just brings me to my iptv service that I added. it doesn't upgrade me to buzztv6 firmware

I would like the Bluetooth to be fixed. I was able to connect my Sony headphones, but the sound still comes through TV speakers or Audio system. Never through Bluetooth connection.

And this is NORMAL.  "V20240816" is the latest "firmware".  5.0.915 is the version of BuzzTV 5 installed.  And that is fine, since BOTH buzztv5 and Buztv6 "software" are installed.

For Home screen, you seem to have changed to the "BuzzTV Media Player 2" Home screen.  To Launch BuzzTV 6 on that one (assuming you have not created a shortcut), you will need to select "ALL APPS" and you will see BuzzTV 6 on the second row, right next to BuzzTV 5.  But BuzzTV 6 is a little different, when you select it, it will take you to the BuzzTV 6 home screen.  Do youself a favor and just switch to the Buzztv 6 home screen to BuzzTV 6.

So in summary.. V20240816 (as of today) is the latest firmware for the P6.  BOTH buzzTV 5 and 6 software are installed on the P6.  As of today. BuzzTV 5 version is 5.0.915 that is installed on this box.  BuzzTV 6 version can vary (not going to go into details), either 1.0.16 or 1.0.17. 

To get updates to BuzzTV 6 (just like BuzzTV 5) software, you can go into menu->settings and select "check update".  You can see the version that is installed on your device, when you hit the menu button, on the bottom left.  If you see 1.0.xx then you are in buzztv 6, if you see 5.0.xxx you are in buzztv 5.
