January 1Jan 1 I bought this unit about 3 or 4 weeks ago. From the beginning it said YouTube is not supported on this device. I've seen a lot of other models with the same issues and perhaps they're being fixed perhaps or not. But I would like an update on this particular model when this will be fixed. We phoned in gave them our Mac address. Told him about the issue. We're told they'd get back to us and we've heard crickets. We were going to return it and support convinced us that this would be a non-issue. BTY I also have a classic and it works just fine. Edited January 1Jan 1 by UNGI Added more information

January 4Jan 4 If you are logged into to the google play store (I never do on any of my boxes), then there is a strong possibility that google coincidently pushed an update for some google services or framework, which affected youtube.

But like you said, YouTube is controlled by firmware so we shall wait until a fix is sent by the Buzz team. Thanks for the solution bro. 😊
