Hi :)

Are you able to make it so we can dial down the font a bit inside the Live TV app or scale the whole screen a bit smaller?

Trying to read some TV channels is hard, like the channel is "Cat Sports 3 FHD" But all I can see on the app is "Cat Spor...." because it's too long and the font is too big?

Thanks! 

What model do you have?

not a buzz app issue

you missed a step in setup

Buzz E5

Its mostly just in the “Guide” section, when I press the OK button that guide there looks fine but the text in the guide for channels is huge 

As you can see all I can see is Fox Sport…

 

character amount is capped

Just hit the info button Hit it again to go back to guide

Info is also at top

On Android 13 boxes (like the X5 SS which I just checked) there is an option under Device preferences->Display options for "Text Scaling".  It has some fixed values to choose from (85%, 100%, 115% and 130%).   However this option does not exist on previous version (Android 7, 9 or 11) boxes as far as I know.

It does help a little, but you still get a limited number of characters.  Keep in mind that this is an OS option and this setting affects EVERYTHING on the box, not just the guide. 

I would have liked to keep mine at 115% (getting older) 🙂   But with that I would have liked to change the Guide view to be something like 5-6 rows (instead of 8 ), and instead of seeing 4 (30 minutes slots) to seeing only 2-3, to give each column a little more room.  Making configurable would have been nice.

Not going to speak for Buzz, but I think new features for BuzzTV 5 are not really a very high priority.  Dynamic scaling for these things can be very tricky, so it can open a whole new can of worms.  New boxes are coming now with BuzzTV 6 and I am sure the priority is on stabilizing that and adding new features to BuzzTV 6.    I may actually make a request for this scaling feature for the guide for BuzzTV 6, so maybe one day it'll be added, but I am sure it is not a huge priority any time soon.
