onlt the brave Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 I've read through a lot of the posts and see an awful lot of unanswered questions and correct me if I'm wrong little if any response from Buzz Tv employees (techies). Am I not reading this right? Here's my question. I just purchased the 4500 series after having numerous issues with a 3000. Superior (4500) in many respects but I've seen manuals for inserting batteries into toys that were more detailed than the Buzz. Further some functionalities I liked with the 3000 seem to have gone by the wayside with the 4500. For example and this is really the question I would like answered is the TV shows I follow and are marked as favorites used to, with the 3000, reappear whenever a new episode did at the top of the favorites list. This does not happen with the 4500. I do not seem to be able to make this happen. Does anyone else know how to resolve this? Gratefully awaiting suggestions Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onlt the brave Posted April 7, 2021 Author Share Posted April 7, 2021 Hi I have owned 2 different Buzz 3000's One black, the other Gold. Both seem to have different attributes in some ways. The Gold 3000 will show which of my favorites have updated with new episodes. I know it's it probably a programming thing in setup somewhere. My point is that not being a "Techie" and having to rely on my Very limited knowledge about how these things work, a more detailed manual on setup would be wonderful. I'm 71 so I'm not literate when it comes to programming. I'm learning by myself. I have tried Googling for a manual, I get lots of how great the 4500 is, how to plug it in etc. Unfortunately I could use more. Can anyone point me to a manual? Thank You Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbs. Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 All the 3000s should be using the same software Some did get stuck updated from 1.6 to 2 While in live tv hit the menu button and post the version numbers at bottom You will not see manuals on how to set up servers on the box from buzz as that would bring to bear legal issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank You Try this When in Live TV Press Menu Go to Configuration Scroll down and Turn on Server Favorites Do a reboot of the box. This should fix the issue you're having. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for info on servers? That I get! Also on my 3000 my daily updates of my favorites shows, 3 more of my favorites have new episodes all listed by date (newest first). On my 4500 the same favorites have updated but I have to search through all my favorites to see which have updated and which have not. I'm looking more for configuration.

Since posting last I've read a lot of the threads on the 3000 and the 4500. Many (not all ) of the issues people ask about I have experienced, I've also noticed that many of the threads get either no or very few replies and it appears that a lot of those replies come from members. How much time would it take for a moderator to simply reply to a posted question? The sites name is "STBBuzz" is it not? In my business, if I get an email with a question? I reply. If I don't have an answer I'll reply with an update on when they could expect an answer. I know this world is different than mine was. I see it even in the way people end their emails. No salutation, no ending, bang take it or not. With respect, JR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
