November 26, 20241 yr I had to boot to recovery on my Classic (fw 20240927, BuzzTV 5.0.940), and the screen is split in half (aspect is way off). Thought I read about this somewhere but I can't find any info. Can anyone offer any suggestions?
November 26, 20241 yr not sure if I read correct use tv remote control to adjust picture size and then use recovery options to do whatever you want to do.
November 26, 20241 yr Author A soft reset will wipe the box to factory condition, but it doesn't involve the Android recovery like a hard reset would. That's where I found this problem. I haven't tried changing the aspect ratio / screen size in the BuzzTV app, as I would assume that the Android recovery screen video output would be different from the app. Never experienced this on my 4500's, so I'm curious why this has happened.
November 27, 20241 yr Do a soft reset first like nbs suggested and then you can do a hard reset if you want 🙂 I've hard reset it many times, and never had an issue. But then again, my classic is connected to a computer monitor.
December 16, 20241 yr Author Forgot to update this, Ryu was correct in that you need to adjust the resolution down on the box before doing a hard reset in order for the recovery screen size to be correct. This is different from my old 4500's on Android 9, but no big deal. Thanks everyone.
December 17, 20241 yr I've done a hard reset many times without adjusting resolution. Most times users don't have access to settings before doing hard reset

Most times users don't have access to settings before doing hard reset when I reset mine recovery screen was smaller but was manageable once it rebooted it was fine since default resolution is auto
January 6, 20251 yr unplug the power push the button on the box and hold down hook up power release button when recovery screen appears select wipe data/factory reset
