set up recording, on any channel. Or one button recording or manual set up.

buzz5 bug?

server no problem, no glitches etc..

thanks 

I was testing some recording on the X5SS last night and had no issues doing 3 or 4 recording, full recording time including the extra time added in the PVR options.  And it is BuzzTV 5.

However since that is an Android 13 box, I just setup a few recordings on the Classic (Android 11) to see what it does.

Take one box (the classic for example), can you let us know what version of firmware/software you are running ?  Also, are you recording to internal or external storage ?  If using external (usb stick or HDD) are you plugged into a USB 3 [blue] port (and not a USB 2 one) ?  And have you tried  different USB stick.  If the USB stick has very slow write access, it can be an issue.  For testing, you may want to try recording to internal, to remove the media from the equation.

Also, does you account allow more than one connection, or single connection ?  MAC or XC ?

What type of stream do you have configured (Automatic, HLS/M38U or TS) ?

Essentially A little more info would help.

Nope 

so I set the configuration 

real time streaming to on

its working recorded 18 mins before I stopped it 

playing back just fine !!

I don't use MAC often.  But Using XC login, I scheduled a 30 minutes recording from 6:30pm to 7pm, with no extra in PVR options, and it recorded perfectly for 29m52s and wife was also streaming upstairs on the xrs4900.

You say now that it recorded for 18 minutes before "you" stopped it.  So what is the problem ?  Went past the 10 minutes that you mentioned previously.

Also depends on the streams.  I have seen streams that are so "discontinuous" and redirecting constantly, even though they seem to play smooth.  This will kill recordings for sure.

It would only record max 10mins on any channel 

set the streaming to real time in the configuration and it’s working now 

what benefits using XC to MAC connection?

MAC is tied to a single box, and limit to  single connection at a time.

XC uses a URL but with username/password, so you can install it on as many devices as you want (not tied to a single box).  And depending on the service you subscribe to you can be allowed to have multiple connections simultaneously.  I presently have a 2 connection sub, so I can have any 2 of my boxes streaming at the same time, and no issues (Wife watches in one room, I watch in the other and all on the same sub).  Also if you have more than one connection available, you can also be recording one channel, while you watch another.  If I am not mistaken, dishuser (on the same service), he has up to 6 simultaneous connections.

So XC is a lot more flexible.

not with the service they use

one connection only

and normally have to reset if you use a different device
