Ryu Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) TimeShift setup on BuzzTv 5 1. Connect your usb stick to any of USB port. (USB 3.0 works better if you have available) 2. Go to settings 3. Click storage 4. Click on your usb stick 5. You should see option erase and format as removable storage. So click on it. (If you dont see this option then format your usb first and once done dont use usb as a internal storage. Just click on move later and start from step 3 again. Now you should see erase and format as removable storage option. 6. Click format 7. Once done, now you should see usb as removable storage. 8. keep pressing back until you get to home screen 9. Now click live tv 10. While watching live TV press menu 11. Go to PVR 12. Go to PVR Options 13. Turn on Timeshift 14. Click Timeshift Cache Storage and select your USB and go back 15. Timeshift Cache Size (up to as much you want, 2 GB is good enough) 16 Now when you go to live TV and you should see TS option lid up on bottom right next to CC REC and HD info. If not press info button to see it in bottom right corner. 17. Now you should see white solid line on top of blue line indicating you can go back up to that time. You should be able to use pause and rewind function now. 18. If you dont see TS option in info bar that mean you won’t be able to rewind/pause this channel or stream Edited April 4, 2023 by Ryu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dishuser Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 unless the channel has catchup follow Ryu's instructions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilles1945 Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 Thanks Ryu for helping it's very appreciated. Now I did it but it's not working and it could be my fault. I used the SD card instead of usb. That could be the reason why it didn't work. I have included a picture of live TV. And what is funny is the channel I used to rewind. There's no sound while there is a picture. And went no picture I have sound. But I see the TS to the left of CC REC HD 20230405_101814.heic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryu Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 also, while downloading are you staying there until it finish downloading or you just exit out screen while it downloading? you have to wait for it to finish download if you are not waiting.
