More geared towards sports? Unlikely

turn off bluetooth and try with IR mode for a week and see the result.

How a device recovers from a standby will vary from one chipset to the other. Because of that I never even bother with standby. Just way too annoying with many devices (not just buzz). Hell, even laptops crap out their wifi connections after standby or hibernates. 90% of my devices are now hardwired (does not make them immune to network issues - but it is better). But the one thing I decided many years ago, is that media boxes are just not worth putting in standby mode. Take all of 45 seconds to boot them clean from scratch, and when it is a clean boot, they typically always initialize properly. Instantaneous gratification of the box turning on instantly, just to find out some hardware stayed asleep, is just not worth it. Why not change the powerkey definition from standby to shutdown (which in my opinion should be the default) and save yourself all the headaches for now. If it can be fixed, I am sure Buzz will eventually look at it. If you want to debug/test it any further, then obviously a pin hole hardware type factory reset should be the first thing to do to ensure there is nothing latched somewhere during some previous update.

My X5 has similar issues, just purchased and here are the issues. Every so often the unit gets stuck in Standy Mode will not power wake. Have to unplug the power which resets the unit. This happens at least once or twice a week now. Second issue is in Standby, the X5 drops connection from the WiFi. This has been confirmed I can go to WiFi setings and the signal it was "connected" to now says "saved" You have to actually manually connect again. These 2 issues are annoying and after reading these Posts, there may be a firmware issue. This is not a IPTV Server issue. This is not a Router issue because other Buzz U5s work flawless. I used a U5 in this same connection scenerio with no issues for years. Only the X5 has 2 intermitting problems.

Here is the Buzz 38 button remote. BuzzTV G20 Voice Remote – BuzzTV Direct However being a Google remote, I am pretty sure there are quite a few restrictions on what they can or can't do with this remote in terms of changes.

I would like to invite the devs to consider incorporating a feature like Game Day on the Formula Z, which aggregates the sporting events and schedules and direct links into a single category for easy browsing and access to live sports. I understand the Formula boxes are more geared toward sports, but with the availability of TV shows and movies from VOD services and news and documentaries on ad-free YouTube, a large percentage of live TV users on all devices are primarily paying for sports. With this reality in mind, perhaps a Game Day category would be appropriate in the Buzz TV 6 live TV app.

I am migrating my extended family from the Fire TV ecosystem and I am looking for a remote control somewhat analogous to the 16-button Fire TV remote, with perhaps an added feature or two, but definitely a far more simple remote than the basic 38-button remote that Buzz currently offers. So I would like to suggest to the devs an invitation to consider releasing a very basic remote that might work well for new users transitioning from Fire TVs or for senior citizens who do not play well with a remote that has too many buttons. Also, following the example of some alternative Android boxes, perhaps some new remote model could include a find my remote feature triggered by a USB mic (another hardware accessory suggestion, BTW) and also doubling the amount of hot keys from 4 to 8 by incorporating a long press function for these keys (this last suggestion could of course also be part of a software update to existing Buzz remotes that have hot keys.) In the meantime, can anybody suggest: 1. A very simple third-party voice remote that works well with the Power Station? 2. A third-party USB mic that works well for hands-free far-field control of the Power Station and TV? Thank you

We've really come a long way lol

post in the section for your model the classic isn't your model

what version do you currently have?

This is a new box, it did and update on the initial power up. Ty for your reply.

Can you please tell me where to post this question? I have searched the forum and I cannot find a topic or thread any more relevant than this one. Thank you.

this thread isn't the place to ask

Are third-party remotes compatible with Buzz TV 6?
