Hello everyone, I wanted to know if it was possible for one of you to share the APK of BuzzTV 6 and the BuzzTV Launcher, thank you.

It's a start, but measuring actually means nothing. It could be perfectly 5V without a load and as soon as a load/box is connected, it may drop down quite a bit. And even if the Voltage is good, it may not be able to provide enough current. 5V power supplies are typically common (and most with Center positive), so if you have another 5V power supply (rated at least 2A), you can try to swap it (assuming barrel fits).

if a hard resset doesn't work it's most likely pooched

Ok. Cool. I did some reading and didn’t see that. Good to know. Thank you

Thanks Buzz are aware of the bug Just hit the buzz logo on remote for now

Try recording to internal so that you can rule out if something is wrong with the usb

Not a buzz issue

buzztv 5 is not a box post in the section for your model

Not happening...lol

Are you scheduling to record these in the future, or are you selecting something that has already started ? If you "schedule" something to record that "started" in the past, it will not trigger a record. Let's try a simple task first. If you enable the One button record. Then while you are watching a show full screenm and you press the "RED" button, does it start a recording (with red icon on top right of screen) ? IF so, let it go for 30 seconds and then you can press the red button again to cancel it. Then go into your PVR->PVR Recordings.. IS it there ?

I come from a tech background, I am quite familiar and will check this out thanks for the suggestions folks

it even shows what the red and green power buttons are for on the face of remote

You can't control if your internet provider decides to start blocking. That is independent from your router and out f your control. Turning off security does not control what the ISP does on their end to block connections. And when they block it will not be everything. Often it is just certain destinations/services. Your box provider is far from helpful. And from his reply, he really does not seem to care or know much. The RED power button on the IR55 (which comes with the L1) is a programmable button (to be able to control TV Power, soundbar, etc..) . It is NOT designed to do anything on the buzz box by default. The Green button is the actual power button for the Buzz Box. I am not in front of my L1 now, but I am pretty sure there is an option in the menus (Powerkey definition) to have the green button work as standby/suspend, or shutdown. I always use shutdown to ensure a clean boot all the time. The L1 literally takes less than 5 seconds to load, so why bother with Standby. To program the RED button to mimic the button of another remote, you can follow the instruction for the remote's manual. PS: Did you try what I sent you yesterday in Direct Message ?

have you tried wipe cache partition first before factory reset?

I tried last night using an Anker Soundcore BT speaker, another cheap chinese no name brand one, and my Poly Voyager 2 headsets, and with all 3 the result was the same. When using BuzzTV 6, things were all slightly out of sync. Watching same programs/streams On BuzzTV 5 (on the P6), everything was perfectly in sync. Also Tested on some VOD, and using the internal player of BuzzTV 6, movies were slightly out of sync also, but using external player (I used MX Player), everything was in sync. I will try to test a few more BT devices on the weekend.

I'm not in front of my device right now, but have you gone into the settings, apps, and looked for the playstore app and then brining it up and doing a "clear storage" on it ? It's not like you will lose anything on it Maybe there is something corrupted in it's app storage.

WHAT !!!! The only situation where play store is "needed" is when you have purchased an app and you want to install legit version. Nearly EVERY app can be downloaded from piles of different APK mirrors. I install EVERY app directly from APK versions stored on my NAS server. In some cases you need to use custom installers since they are xapk files now, but it can all be done.

why would it not allow you? https://gizmodo.com/download/google-playstore-179-download just did it from here with zero issues

usb stick, flash drive, or external drive.

version 9.2.0 build 5 62250 is what comes with the p6 and you asked in the wrong section

OK.. I think at this point, the best option would be a hard factory reset. You can use the backup & restore option in the configuration menu of BuzzTV to backup your server and favorites (to avoid redoing them all, if you have spent time customizing them). Put the backup on a USB stick. Backup is tiny. Verify that there is a small ZIP file on the stick if you want to make sure backup worked. Then proceed to a hard factory reset. Here is a video in case you need it. Different model in the video, but process is the same:

instead of posting pics just read what versions are shown

very possible maybe just the power supply is pooched

Yes nibs i am doing just that

You are holding button down then powering up unit?

Upgraded from an older Samsung led tv to a new 83" LG C5, new 2.1 certified HDMI cables new LG S90TY Soundbar all new correct length network cables etc. For some reason when watching any content on the PS 6 after sometime 20 mins or so the LG screen goes blank and shortly indicates no signal, if I hit the middle round button on the BT 500 remote it comes back on and continues playing just fine. I have all power saving functions turned off on the TV and PS6. This is really frustrating knowing I could have bought a much cheaper Android based hardware box for how it performs and now this which is making the device unusable in my opinion. Hooked my old Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 up and no issues at all. Any thoughts?

Glad it is back up. But just curious, is it an XC type login that you are setup for,or a MAC type login. If you are using a MAC type login on your device/sub, then it is quite possible that your reseller needed to simply do a device reset on his panel (which should have been his first reflex). Anyhow, it's done. And feel free to program your RED power button on the remote.

try it in buzztv 5

Ok thanks Ryu I will have a great day

I would say contact buzz support team and you may have to send them to take a look.

Hi Ryu thanks for your reply. No I didn't and will check that tomorrow watching hockey game.

Hello everyone, I am also experiencing this same issue. Just started a few days ago. I have a Google TV streamer connected to my TV, and YouTube videos are crystal clear. Buzz TV box same videos, not so much.

I am away from home right now, but there is typically an option in the settings, which is essentially "Force MAX Volume". Find it in the settings, or buzz utilities and disable it. Then the box will output variable volume and allow to be controlled by the remote.

Most google boxes I know do NOT have a power off function. Most is just automatic standby. But the issue you were having is probably just some HDMI signal than needs to go low to allow your TV to detect that the device is not fully powered. Not sure what control Buzz would have over the individual HDMI signals. Instead of requesting a full power off option, I think what is needed, is more of a way to force the HDMI to go into a lower disconnect state so external devices can detect a true "no signal" when it is in sleep mode.

nbs, thanks for your help. My wife is going to be the primary user and is unwilling/unable to deal with the complications the PS6 presents compared to other boxes. Unfortunately, I packed it up and returned it yesterday. I'll wait and see the details of the new G-Series box. If it doesn't have a Power Option, I'll probably just get a Ugoos AM9 Pro. I'll continue using my X5 until then. Thanks again to everyone who advised me along the way. I think my setup may be a special case.

no shutdown yet

I have it connected to my p6 using bluetooth and use optical for my x5ss to save time pairing it

Thanks You have it connected to Bluetooth compatible TV as well?

I have no issues using primary with a 2.1 sound system

Message allaboutbuzz with all your info

Just tried mine on both VOD and tv series and worked perfectly You may want to Save your settings and servers and do factory reset

Hi there, As many others, I have this error for a month now. m3u is working without problem but for a month now (it worked for almost a year), xc api refuse to load. I checked with my provider. He gave me another url and suddenly it worked.. for 10 sec.! When I left app then get back, same error! Tried with / without vpn it's working with other apps (Tivimate / Implayer) it worked for almost a year then stop working recently (app update?) Cleared data / cache So it definitively comes form the app/box, not my provider Any ideas? Fred

Try using Fast Login for Login Type instead of Default

The Lon.TV YouTuber just posted a highly critical review of the P6 (the low-end version, not the Unlimited). Aside from perseverating on the lack of support for certain audio and video codecs (features that are lost on me), ignoring the Power Station’s purposeful design as an IPTV player, as well as overlooking the plethora of admonitions about using Netflix, Disney+ and Plex on the Power Station, he does make a potentially useful observation that the last security update for the Power Station (according to him) was in August 2023. Is this correct, and if so, does Buzz TV plan on improving the frequency of the security updates for the Power Station? On a related subject, the YouTuber Triple M recently posted a review of the Power Station that was taken down by YouTube. Does anybody have any information about the content of this review?

P6 runs on Android 13, which is actually one of the few mainstream media boxes that has such a later version of Android. And DU mentioned above, security updates end in 2026. One of the other big media box manufacturers released their "latest box" last fall (Sep 2025), and they released it with Android 12, which google discontinued security updates on Android 12 since March 2025. There are a few generic boxes which advertise Android 14, but but they are generic boxes which you can't compare, since most don't even get any updates after delivery. Most people do not use these boxes for very sensitive tasks. No banking, or browsing the IRS/CRA or other sites which they would be afraid of being compromised. They are primarily for consuming media, and typically behind a router using NAT anyhow, so rarely facing the outside world. So unless you sideload some sketchy app or addon for some package, there is very little risk of anything. And if you suspect something, a simple reset, will clear it to factory settings, if you were smart enough to take a backup of your servers/favorites,etc.. you can restore your backup and be back up in less than 10 minutes. So there is really nothing wrong for these purpose built devices to run older versions of Android (Andoid 9 and 11 are also very popular for media boxes). And unless you have a "certified" box for netflix, disney, etc. you will always have to jump through hoops unless you sideload custom mods. And you say "plex" ? What is wrong with plex. Not a huge fan of it, but it works. I have Plex server running on one of my synology, and plex client on most of my buzz boxes and it works. It all comes down to what you want to do with the box. But as a media player there is no super critical need to have latest security fixes. How many new Android TVs out there are still being sold with Android 13 or lower ? You'd be surprised.

security updates ends this year
