I've messaged you a site where you can discuss services

Thanks eveyone..... Emporium thank you... I was looking at the X5 because it was only $10 more.... But now, classic will be my choice. I know a few mentioned the issues with stalker, and I have tried probably 10 or more 1 month subs to find another provider and nothing has come close to my stalker sub... I Know it is frowned upon to talk about providers, but if anyone private messages me another provider to test that is the "Best" I will be willing to give them a 1 month test Thanks all

I haven't had a chance to update the L1 yet, but on the P6, I checked earlier and mine says max 2, active 1. I would have expected it to say active 2 (since wife was also watching upstairs on the 4900). I am wondering if it is just reporting (active connections -1). Did you guys have any other boxes streaming at the same time ? I haven't checked a sub with more than 2 max connections, but I can check that tomorrow night. Due to the fact that I increased the text size on the P6 (yes, it's called old age) , there seems to be some minor overwrite (due to text wrap) on the text in the account info screen, but you can easily tell it is active connections 1.

Ok I think other users reported this issue where after a multi day recording worked the first time It won't work again afterwards We will fix this on our next update.

In menu Account info It tells you how many connections you have and how many are connected It always says 0 for how many are connected So does the P6 on buzz 6 for that mater Edit Sorry says Max connections and active connectins It is active that always shows 0

Where does it say not connected? And you mean account info shows 0 connections?

The Classic and one of my 4900 are my recorder and they just work. The Classic it is the box I always recommend to friends who are looking to get a buzz. Still the best bang for the buck in my opinion. It's also the box I tend to lend to friends when they want to try a buzz box before they buy one, and they typically get hooked right away and always end up ordering one. But X5 or Classic, you can't go wrong. However having said that, recording from MAC server can be tricky. If the app is still running in the background and it is still has a stream open, then it may fail because it will try to fork another stream, which MAC server only supports a single stream and can get disconnected. I don't know all the logic for the recording stream, but if it is always going to be recording the same channel, you "may" increase the odds of success if you change to that channel that will be recorded before exiting.

to record, I set the time... scheduled several hours after I go to bed, I rarely shutdown the buzz. So it may need to change channel,, but it is on. it is a multiday recording, same time everyday. Add a couple of minutes before and after normally I get from 5 minutes to 20 minutes of recording If I just wait for show and press record, that works hence the need for catch-up. NBS, glad to hear about X5.... I will order one, and hope it works as well as 4500 as far as catch-up is concerned. I will store away the P6 and hope for a better future. thanks steve

sorry meant 0 connected...lol

Oops wrong buzz...lol

My account shows 3 connections which is correct

still shows not connected to wifi same with account it shows 0 connections other than that it worx great

How are you trying to record exactly? As MAC Servers only have one connection, so you can basically only record what you're watching.

Only the dev can answer your question regarding the p6 I haven't done any recording on the p6 yet but plan to test it You don't provide any info on your recording. I only recorded a little on the 4500 and had no issues doing any recording from epg I've done lots of recording on the classic ,x5 x5ss and it's been flawless I'm sure the p6 will join them

So far the biggest mistake I have made was selling my Buzz 4500 before getting a chance to use the P6. I ordered mine the very first week, and It has brought no extra functionality, but has brought along a long list of bugs. Now it may be my provider, but I have never had all these issues with the 4500. If a Mod wants to know what provider I am using, please private message me, it is a stalker only provider. I know you will not let us know what provider you are testing on, so it will be hard to measure Apples to Apples... but here are my gripes: PVR never worked well on the 4500 (Buzz4 or Buzz5) but it is no better on P6 (Buzz5 or Buzz6) lacking PVR, my next best way to watch shows in the past is catchup. That worked 95% of the time with the 4500, I am lucky if it works once in a week on the P6. Always getting stream error. I regularly talk to the guy I sold my 4500 to and another friend with the same 4500, and all three of us are on same provider.... And only the P6 is having all these issues I never get buffering on either of the units (4500 or P6), and I have pure fiber internet, and I am running through a dedicated VPN. I am seriously considering an older Buzz that may be a bit more mature. Maybe a Series 5 or even an older 4500, and wait a few years for the P6. I know you guys are working hard on this, but for the price... It has been a very frustrating experience. Thanks Steve

You didn't need to revive and 8 month old post ? Could have started your own thread. A little more info would help. What model box do you have ? When you press buttons on the remote, is there any LED or sign of life on the remote. Have you changed the batteries with a fresh set ? Check the Remote factory reset section and try to reset the remote: https://buzztv.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/BT400-300_manual_MOBILE_v6_Compress.pdf

System was working fine for two months. Now the remote has stopped working. Turn tv on and buzztv home screen appears but cannot not navigate

The remote manufacturer made the key code for search and mic the same So were waiting on them to provide us a software update for the remote to fix the issue

Yup What he said

It's called "crooks". I've seen it locally also, with some of the asking prices by bundling everything together and getting clueless customers to fall for it. I personally don't even want to sell people a box. I give them the link to buzztvglobal, tell them what they should buy and then I set them up with a service.

I still fail to see how it was almost $300 for a classic with 1 month of service

Buzz sells hardware only. They do NOT sell services. If you bought the box with a promise of service, you got scammed, consider it a lesson, and move on You will need to visit a different forum to find another service, since this forum does not discuss services. If you paid more than you would have from the web site below, then you obviously overpaid. And with current holiday promo, the prices are pretty good. https://buzztvglobal.com/collections/buzztv-boxes
