Remote problem

Same problem here with some of the boxes. 

Changing the remote didn't work for me, but switching television worked with those boxes I have with remote issues. This just verifies that there is an issue with these boxes that need to be addressed.

I know it sounds crazy as the television has nothing to do with the remote in my opinion. But when I switch  the problem 4000 to a different Tv, voila... the remote works with that television. There is definitely a problem with some of the boxes and Buzz need to figure that one out quickly.

I had a BuzzTV 3000 remote and it worked like a charm with my Samsung tv. Two Buzz 4K remotes ( original and illuminating) both have these issues though the illuminating less than the original. 
A fake buzz remote from Artronix also works without any problems. 

PS

Buying a new tv to fix remote problem is not an option 😉

To confirm hdv’s finding, I moved my buzz 4K to an older, non-smart tv and the original remote works fine. I was flipping through buzz for 10-15 minutes and no delays at all. So, it might be an interference from a tv after all. 
Btw, the tv I was having issues with is a one year old Samsung. 
Hope this helps the Buzz team further troubleshoot this issue.

Do these TVs have LED or fluorescent backlight? LED backlight TVs I have not seen cause the issue. Fluorescent backlit TVs I have seen cause the issue. Depends on the frequency the backlight of the inverter running the backlight.

I have fluorescent backlight on Samsung TV

The remote that came with my XRS4000 was the worst. Scrap #1. I then bought an IR-1000L. It was just as bad as the original. 3 or 4 key presses to get a response. The pretty little red light on the unit flashed with each key press, but that was all that happened. Scrap #2. Then I purchased the ARQ-100, and what a difference. This unit is super responsive ,and each key press produces a quick result.

If you are looking for a super replacement, spend the extra few bucks and buy the ARQ-100. Oh yeah - it also comes with a free keyboard on the back. 😉

It may be, but the same remote was working fine with same TV for few weeks, so it may be something else

Bought the XRS box a couple of months ago, put it on a less than a year old Samsung TV, and oh boy, same issues as described before, press  keys 4, 5 or more times to get it going. FRUSTRATING to say the least.

there are two xrs remotes one for the 4000 ,and one for the 4500

which one do you have?
