Do you have tunneled playback or RTS turned on in the configuration menu? And Backup Player is libvlc, so it going back to the home screen means the player is crashing on that stream. And the stream format feature, is just there to show what the server offers Its default to Auto Most servers only offer TS or HLS Auto plays HLS first and if that doesn't work it uses TS We can't add more, as every provider offers it themselves, and it doesn't work the way you think it does Some servers offer RTMP, but its rare.

I should have know to do that brfore making this post. That been said a big thank you for the reply and it fix the issue. Have a great weekend

These steps resolved the issue Go into Android Settings Go to Device Preferences Go to Display and Sound Go to Advanced sound settings Go to Select Formats I think you have it set to none:never use surround sound Switch it to None And it should fix Primar player with the unknown stream error issue We figured this out via PM

Thanks for your help! My box is back up and running!

The error message you're getting is a CloudFlare error. And since you're using a VPN, CloudFlare blocks a lot of IPs from VPNs as you're not the only one using that IP address Usually trying different cities etc on your VPN will resolve the error. And rebooting the box as well.

Absolutely Awesome...Thank You it worked like a charm!

Go into the bluetooth menu and unpair the remote completely from the box. Then (using IR) go into the the remote screen and pair new remote again and re-pair the remote. Factory resetting the remote alone is not enough. It needs to be unpaired from the box, for the box to "forget" it.

Google remotes allow almost no changes They gave us a guide of what buttons we can choose from and where we can put them Same goes for the App Icon buttons Google has very strict rules We won't be designing any newer remotes for awhile, as R&D and tooling costs are very expensive. For now our main remotes will be G20 BT500 BT350 BT400 IR200 BT250

Hence why it is always a good idea to use the backup feature that is within the BuzzTV app (menu->settings->configuration) and select backup/restore. Save it to a USB stick (file it generates is tiny, so perfect reuse of those tony old USB sticks). I have some tiny 128MB sticks lying around from ages ago from some promo item thingy, and that is what I use to back all my units up. If you accidently delete data or need to do a factory reset due to a bad update or something, you always have your server info on the USB stick, including all you favorites saved for a quick restore. Back up and running in a few short minutes.

Hi Joe, thanks for posting this and keeping it constructive. On the security patch date, yes, the P6 is currently on an older Android security patch level. That’s a valid callout and we agree it should be more current. I’ve already flagged this internally and we’re pushing to improve the security patch cadence on P6 going forward. On Netflix, Disney and home theater style Plex use, it comes down to certification and licensing. P6 is Android 13 AOSP, not Google TV certified Android TV. The TV versions of apps like Netflix and Disney require certification and DRM compliance to run properly and to support features like 4K, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. Also worth noting, Google does not certify every chipset. As powerful as RK3588 is, it cannot be Google TV certified, which is why P6 remains an AOSP performance and IPTV focused device. On the Triple M video being taken down, we don’t have any official information from YouTube or the creator, so I don’t want to speculate. Appreciate you bringing it up. Cheers

Give buzz all your info so they can look at the issue

App and firmware are updated all together ? Not necessarily. The app is updated typically more frequently than the firmware. Your Firmware is dated 2025-11-27, and App version 5.0.956 was on 2025-12-15.

I'm assuming you tried unplugging the power, waiting a few seconds and then plugging it back in ? Tried changing HDMI cable ? Tried plugging into a different HDMI port on the TV ? If all else fails, you can attempt to do a complete factory reset.

I'll contact you next week about this via PM Thanks for the information so far.

yesterday got some time to update my classic and it started to download firmware and during download it also started to download and install buzztv 5 update. during that time I got black screen with buzztv 5 logo which started to flicker. I did not panic and left it alone until firmware got completed. once that completed I got Home Screen and all good. so far so good. thank you

Thank you for the quick response. My mistake, using the wrong button! Thanks again

app update is menu/settings/check updates

You're using the exact same account on tivimate? As that app stays logged in, even in the background The error message you're getting is a cloudflare error, its basically kicking the app connection We have no control over this

which option did you pick in recovery screen?

I do and all my boxes have youtube working

Make VERY VERY sure you have the portal typed in perfectly! MANY MANY times when I typed the portal in I missed a letter, or had a space where there should not be a space, or something simple like that.

Completely forgot about that. Damn, I feel old. The last time I was at CES was in Chicago in the summer of 1991 What an experience. And the Penthouse pets walking around the floor was nice too

ces is next week

Wipe data factory reset

Once you set up your favorites the way you want them, it is a good idea to go ahead and do a backup of your configurations. It backs up your server details, favorites, and even app settings. From BuzzTV (like when you are in LiveTV), press Menu->Settings->Configuration and scroll down to backup & Restore. Make sure to back it up onto a USB stick and not internal. That way when you reset your box, you don't delete the file it generates. The file generated is typically a tiny zip file. Perfect use for those old tiny USB sticks which are typically too small to hold anything else Cheers, and happy new year to all.

that version worx for me check app permissions including google

Youtube works fine on my ss

Was it working previously ? Did they confirm that the subscription is not expired ? A few weeks ago, my wife was complaining about the same thing, and I tried a few things (with and without VPN), only to realize a few minutes later that I had forgotten to renew my own sub Needless to say, I did not say that to the wife. Told her it was a glitch which was fixed. As a test, have you tried installing something like IPTV Smarters app or even tivimate and try using that to connect to your service ? To see if it is software related ? Or if you have another device (or even on your phone), try to connect to the service ? Have you checked to make sure that there is no typo, extra space in URL, http vs https, case sensitive on user/password ?

To Receive the Update, just Press the Home Button on the Remote and wait 60 seconds it should appear I found just press AND HOLD the Home Button on the remote and wait it did appear and installed. Thank You!

Edited my post

You dont .You have to re-input your server info

Not enough room ? Has he checked under settings and storage to see if it it really nearly out of storage ? Do they use the internal storage for recording or downloading media ? If so, maybe delete a recording or 2 ?

Yes regular, name brand batteries not rechargeables updated the firmware to V7 also deleted and re-paired. I will see what happens. Just seems like the remote was malfunctioning. i will keep using and will update. Thanks for the advice.

How to Re-Pair the ARQ-200 Series dongle: i. Press and hold OK + TV Power buttons for 4 seconds ii. Let go of both buttons & a red light will be blinking at the top of the remote iii. Hookup the USB dongle to your BuzzTV Device. iv. You should be paired after this General steps for color button programming: There are 4-colour buttons which can be programmed to control shortcuts within the BuzzTV Device i. Find and open the settings from the Home screen ii. Next click BuzzTV Utilities iii. Then Choose Remote control iv. You will be able to set your colour button shortcuts from this menu

I don't use Google play store on any of my devices including my cell phone and this almost 10 years running

This is the number one reason. Hence why I always add my portals by using the web interface, and in that way, I can just use cut&paste from the email I got, so guaranteed did not type an "l" (Lowercase letter L) instead of a "1" (number 1) or even an "I" (uppercase letter I) ; an "O" (uppercase letter O) instead of a "0" (number 0) or added any spaces accidently. Depending on google keyboard settings, it can sometime auto add spaces after a "." as you enter the URL. And I've seen bugs on some software (not saying buzz necessarily), where they don't trim the URL or user/pass and if you add a leading space or trailing space, it will cause an error also. And sometimes just a genuine typo of uppercase vs lowercase, or just the wrong letter. I have stared at passwords sometimes for so long convincing myself that they are "correctly" typed, yet there was 1 letter off Best option if you have multiple boxes, why not just do a backup on the known working box, using the buzztv5 backup&restore option, and then restore it on the box that is acting up.

check using a file manager

youtube is controlled by firmware not software who's laughing now?

If you have a backup with your old URL, Username and password you could still use that one. All you would have to do is edit that backup once restored, with your new URL, username and password. That way if you had all your channels backed up in your old backup all your channels and favorite channels would be restored. I just went through this with one of my servers that changed to a new URL.

can not load portal does not mean its no longer useable. did you contact your service provider?

great feedback. I forgot to mention the scaling issue with no full screen.

All electronic items can go defective. Doesn't take much. One bad bit in a memory chip can kill any device. And it can happen for a variety of reasons. Even a simple static discharge, if you are unlucky, can do it. My E2 (and many other buzztv boxes I have) has taken dozens of updates over the years, and so far I have not had any issues with any of them.

I recently bought 5 e2's for great price and they all got updated without any issue and working rock solid

watched episode 7 of landman last night no issues using primary

look at buzztv power station section. https://stbtalk.com/forum/114-powerstation/

Guess it was muscle memory. Where the back button is on the BT/IR 100/200 remotes, is now the GUIDE/EPG button on the BT250/350 remotes. Guess it would explain why you see the EPG screen. Cheers
