Sometimes the Device ID changes for MAC subscriptions when you reset Just contact your server provider and ask them to reset the MAC on their side. Should start working afterwards

Thank you. May I never curse an inanimate object again. Or box anyways. lol. Wish I had thought to ask some while ago. Was a post by DU that was a trigger.lol. FYI to readers , this would be good to do even if you have not had any box issue that might be resolved by a hard reboot. You never know when you may need to. Cheers.

You're looking for a Universal Remote The brand All in One makes these, they pretty much cover every brand ever sold Just comes with a list of TV codes and instructions on how to program the remote to start working with your TV I have gotten them and set them up before for my parents Emporium is correct, our Buzz remotes require the original remote to learn the 4 buttons from

Was fixed on E5s and X5s this week via FW update Will be rolled out to the rest of our Android 11 models next week, including the Classic and Classic Anniv

Hello again... Just got an update/answer from cs@buzztv to share here is their answer, "Hello yes we have to stop this update from going out for now as there was some issues so no need to worry we will be sending out the other version soon" I hope it is helpful and thanks again for the help.

Email buzz with your device id and explain the issue

Just be a little more patient They are busy

First of all, this has nothing to do with BuzzTV 6. BuzzTV 6 is the software which is installed on the Powerstation devices and the L1. Is there any question about a BuzzTV box in there ? This is a BuzzTV hardware/software support forum not a TV support forum. If you have a specific box, post under that specific hardware section. For TVs, I don't see the age of a TV being an issue. I am running one of my BuzzTV boxes on an archaic Audiovox TV, and I'm even using the A/V port to connect, since the TV does not even have an HDMI port. If you are having volume inconsistencies of volume/sound between channels, then the problem sounds more like an issue with your iptv service provider (and we don't discuss services here), try using a different service and see if it is just as bad.

953 is latest for Android 9 and 954 is for Android 11 Was one crash that appeared in 11 but not 9 And Buzz 5 app updates have nothing to do with Youtube I already explained this to the user via PM Google is blocking older devices for Youtube, we have no control Were fixing it on Android 11 devices.

Thanks again for the help, I think I have it under control now! Have a great evening and holiday!!

The BuzzTV app is already preloaded on all buzz devices (including the classic). For pure IPTV, you do not need to download any additional apps. If you have not defined anything yet, as soon as you click on LiveTV, it should bring up the server screen (if something was defined, you will go straight into live TV, where you can then press the menu button on your remote, select settings->server setting - OR on the remote you should have a "servers" button which will take you straight to that screen). From there you can choose MAC, XC or M3U playlist type server. You choose the ones you want, then click on add new, and enter the info your provider gives you. If they gave you a portal URL, username and password, then odds are that it is an XC type. If they gave you 1 or 2 separate links (playlist and/or epg) then you'd need to enter in in M3U.

full backup stopped when the 4900 was released

Other way around Resolved with 954

thats server issue. contact your service provider.

They have just done updates on some models to fix youtube The classic fix will come. Be patient

your service probably changed sources and they use different codecs

after update I notice apps navigation much faster than before. so far so good. thanks

Big letters at the top APP SETTINGS What else do they need to say??

all buzz comes with buzztv app and its same procedure with 4500.

You will not see backups for 3rd party apps. That is the responsibility of the 3rd party apps themselves to allow you to export their settings for future import. Buzz already has a backup feature for their BuzzTV app itself, which includes server settings, app settings, favorites, etc... Even on an android phone, it is the app's responsibility to backup it's settings to the cloud. Sure the phone backup remembers what apps were installed and will reinstall upon reset, but unless the app saved it's settings in the cloud somehow, you will have to reconfigure it after it is reinstalled. Hell I remember when google authenticator did not even backup it's entries (or allow you to export) and I lost everything after a reset. That was a pain. I switch to MS authenticator after that, and shortly after, google added cloud sync for their authenticator, but I never bothered going back. Installing the "basic" apps is not a huge effort (I personally keep all the apk for all the apps I use on a share on my NAS (and on a USB stick), and it takes no time to install them if I need to do a reset. Now, if you have something like kodi or streamio installed with piles of plugins, scripts and custom settings, then that is all on those apps to offer a simple way to take a snapshot of the config for easy restore. Buzz boxes are not rooted or bootloader unlocked, so bootloader type backups are probably never going to be an option. Actually Buzz did have a full flash backup ages ago (I think on the old 3000 series), but that turned out to be a nightmare for most average users so it was replaced with the app backup going forward, which seems to suit "most" users just fine.

Different box but same procedure

That looks/sounds like an AI generated response adapted from some other firmware update procedure. I don't know about you, but did you try going to the downloads page ? There is nothing to download there, other than the buzztv logo. I tried with 3 different browsers.

Have you tried a hard reset ? Procedure is the same as other boxes. https://stbtalk.com/topic/14739-new-official-x5-firmware-dec-3rd-2025/#findComment-40394 An no, if you have not backed it all up before it hanging, you are out of luck.

that's why I always make a backup anytime I make changes

wipe data and reset

my U5 and classic just took the update and so far so good.

don't be afraid

I doubt it

under the box you see Mac and s/n so you can provide either one and here's the email cs@buzztv.com

No it does not

there was no update today

The place to ask is at the store

no

@cyrowth Set the P6 up direct to your tv during setup. Then reconnect it the way you want it. After setup, I connected my P6 to my Trinnov via hdmi and it performed flawlessly.

Yes, I visited the page and there was no downloadable content. I didn't try the usb into bt-500 because I didn't have the executable to upload the remote software. However, good news--tech support was able to resolve the problem. The problem was not with the installation of the remote update, but that the remote itself had an issue. Unpairing the remote and re-pairing the remote fixed the problem. I was then able to click the button to install the update. Thanks for proposing workaround and potential solutions--appreciate it!

connect an eternal usb storage or a micro sd card then go to buzz tv app, menu, settings, configurations, back & restore, backup, select on screen options, select servers, click backup, select external storage by using using dpad on remote and click next and thats it. if you don't have an external device you can make backup in internal storage then once done you can remotely transfer from your device to you pc over local network before you reset.

wrong thread bro

yup, just did the factory reset, now i have to reprogram everything, sucks, but it's working, unplug - power off long tooth pick in the AV port until you hear a click plug in - power on wait until you hit the factory reset screen select factory reset

sorry is 946

32gb isn't enough?
