The Guide button on all of our remotes is a Universal Remote Button Which means its programmed to open the Guide of the Buzz app from anywhere on the box Lots of users use this, and the remote + box + app are fully designed around the Buzz app. We have no plans to remove the way the Guide Button is programmed on our remotes. So if this doesn't satisfy you, I would suggest getting a different remote for the box. Making the change you're requesting would upset a ton of more users than it would please, as we would be changing user behavior that has existed for over 6 years. no combining multiple EPG sources to prioritize against a single provider feed to fill gaps and manually assign missing info, no EPG channel logo editing for streams, etc. We have plans to add this in the future, but no set timeline. As currently more than 95% of our users do not use this and only use 1 provider per box, either MAC or XC Login. Hopefully this answers your questions

At the moment there is no other box that is announced that will be retrofitted with BuzzTV 6. And just to clarify, BuzzTV 6 is not an OS, it is an application. The OS on the P6 is Android 13, just like the OS on the X5 AX-C is Android 11. The design issue for the power connector was taken. For whatever reason it was taken (technical, financial, mix of both, whatever...), it is done. Also, I don't know what ORANGE color you are referring to. So far on Buzz Web site, there are only 2 options (not even 4 like you mentioned in your first post). The 8GB model is (Black/Black) The 16GB model is (Green/Black) The only Buzz box I recall having any Orange was the xrs4900 (great box, still my daily driver). And you can't satisfy everyone for colors. Some people will like it, and others won't.

Good for you. I am also from Québec, and I speak 3 languages fluently. And you want to talk about arrogance (from your comments in the previous post), feel free to look in the mirror, since YOU were the arrogant one, making assumptions that it was the box that was at fault and no matter what anyone said (to try to help and guide you to the source of the issues you were experiencing), you would get upset and continued expecting a fix/patch for the box. Buzz is usually pretty quick in issuing fixes for minor issues that needs fixing. Hell, I've even gotten fixes pushed withing hours of reporting issues (and I'm sure many other here have also). If you know everything, then I don't see why you even bother asking questions, especially when you refuse to accept any guidance. We all have lives outside these forums (you are no exceptional god - sorry to burst your bubble). With at least 15 buzztv boxes in our possession and access to multiple services, many of us have seen and experienced a little more than the average iptv user. So when possible, we try to help people as much as possible. And if the issues are found to be legit buzz box hardware or software issues (which your issue was not), and we can reproduce them, they are put in the queue and depending on the criticality of the issues, they gets addressed by buzz in upcoming loads.

1. Reproduced and will be fixed on the next OTA this month 2. In our testing. 98% of all TVs worked via CEC. If they had CEC. We did find that some TVs settings required CEC to be turned on. 3. Android 11 doesn't support this. So we removed it. 4. Reproduced and will be fixed on the next OTA this month. Thanks for the comments.

Future Feature Request: Mounting and RECORDING/DOWNLOADING to an network shared folder One nice thing to see would be the option to mount an SMB or NFS share (like on a NAS) and use that as a destination for Recordings/Downloads. Also, if in the same directory or subdirectory it can include whatever file (xml or whatever...) is needed to be able to get the show info (show name, epg description if there was any, channel, etc..). That way if you have more than one Buzz box, they can point to the same directory, and everyone can share everyone's recordings/downloads. A huge bonus would be to also have the filenames something more informative (like first 20 characters of show description, followed by date/time of recording). That way when you look at the directory, you have a good idea of what the media files are. Right now, they look like random names, but I am sure it has something to do with the stream URL. Thanks.

That won't get added until Q1 of 2025

Currently we have a Release Candidate being tested So hopefully it passes soon and we can release it

So somehow this was taken out of System apps on the last Firmware updates Were not sure how it went unnoticed We have it added back for the next Public Firmware update Me personally, I prefer using File Browser to side load apps, as it shows file names better than App Installer In case you have multiples of the same apps, but different versions on your USB

New P6 Official Firmware + Buzz 6 App Update Aug 19th OTA Changes: Firmware Changes: - Fixed Guide Button - CEC OTP enhancements - Replaced File Explorer Buzz 6 Changes V1.0.14: - Added auto-checking for updates - Fixed a rare issue when the app wouldn't send login and password on MAC servers, so such servers wouldn't load - Fixed a crash on MAC servers when user entered an invalid URL (without server name, etc) - Removed buttons from the top of server info menu which are not implemented yet - Fixed empty movie lists in some VOD categories on MAC servers - Fixed release date formatting for some movies - Update sort options for MAC servers, fixed sorting - Updated audio/cc track names, should now show 5.1/7.1 in track names. - Fixed clicking on an adult channel would reset channel list to the last played channel - Fixed sorting feature in channel list - Fixed channels wouldn't load on some MAC servers (Channel List Empty - Fixed weather in launcher - Changed default sorting order for movies to Default (aka as it is on server), update the way the app sorts movies on XC server with the default sorting order - Fixed Favorites - Fixed highlight colors in PVR and configuration menus - updated Stalker, XC and TMDB APIs to fix some issues with some data not being loaded - Player now reconnects to server when the server sends corrupted stream packets - Fixed audio decoding message issue - Updated Audio/CC track names to show more information - Added a CC track to live tv channels which don't have one - Fixed reconnecting to server when a server issue happens

Were not capable of upgrading OS via OTA, due to Amlogic changing how partions work for each new OS/SDK they release on every Chipset. They have been doing this since Android 5 basically.

I tried using 2 different SATA SSD (1 intel, and one Samsung) using various adapters. The basic USB to SATA simple adapters, which are 1 or 2 USB pigtails off a SATA connector, at least the 2 models I have do not work at all. They just don't see any drive. In Storage under settings, you don't even see a blip when you plug it in. I suspect this has to do with the way the USB bridges in these units handle the drives. Then I tried with a few different powered USB disk docks (2 models from Startech). With drives configured with MBR and formatted as single exFAT partition, the drives are seen, but as soon as you plug them in, they show up under the storage settings menu, but then go to "safely ejected" immediately. I even tried to do a "full format" instead of just quick format, and made no difference. Then just out of curiosity, I decided to reformat the drives in NTFS (the only other available option on my W10 machine) and then put them back in the dock and they were seen, and I even added them as my PVR destination and recorded on them without an issue. I'm surprised that Android box preferred NTFS over exFAT, but it could have something to do with kernel modules, so not sure. USB storage is definitely pickier on the P6. But some do work fine. The compatibility of more USB media, is surely something for them to work on in future firmware.

Numerated items above: Powerstation box HDMI Cable Power supply Cable for power supply Silicon plugs (Green/Yellow) to plug any unused ports on the box, should you wish. Energizer AA batteries (as usual, no cheap batteries here) extra retaining rubber plug for NVMe Buzz BT500 remote Connectors on both sides of the box Front side: USB3, USB2, and USBC along with the green power button with the buzz logo on it. Back side: Power connector, TF (MicroSD), Optical connector, HDMI and gigabit Ethernet port. (Not pictured) There is a small LED bar on the top of the box (under one of those hex patterns) And it is Green when power on, Red when in suspend (I assume will be same when powered off), and nice touch, you can turn the LED BAR off all together from within the menus. Cover comes off the bottom, to reveal an NVMe slot. There is already a single rubber retainer in the 2280 size location. However you can surely install 2230, up to 2280 NVMe drives, and either move the existing plug to support it, or use the spare one if you are using something smaller than a 2280. Power supply is a universal 100-240V, 50/60Hz with c(UL)us certification markings. Unlike previous Buzz power supplies, this powersupply has a separate 2 pin power cable going to it as you can see. No ground and does not take up more than one plug on an outlet or any power bar. I received the North American version so the power cable has the standard NEMA plug on it, but for other countries, I assume buzz will either include a universal plug adapter, or a different power cable to connect to the power supply. The included power cable connecting to the power supply is about 2.5ft long, and the power supply with the cable going all the way to the barrel is about 3.5ft long, giving you a total length of about 6ft. For those who care about the power supply other specs, it is rated as 12V 3A. The barrel connector at the end has a 5.5mm OD, 2.1mm ID (pulled out my calipers to confirm) and is Center Positive. This box is quite a bit bigger than other buzz boxes. It measures roughly 6 inches (~15cm - front to back) x 5 inches (~ 13cm side to side) x just over 2 inches high (~5cm). measurements are approximate

it looks a lot better the UI is awesome

We have no way to detect if a movies been played on external player You can mark it played manually though.

New Update Buzz 5 V5.0.919 Feb 13th, 2024 Sent to All Buzz 5 Users running V5.0.906 Changes: - Fixed Crashes. - Minor Bug Fixes - Fixed some TMDB Bugs on VOD + TV Series - Fixed some crashes in many menus (VOD, search, PVR) - Fixed Timeshift playback bugs on some streams - Fixed missing movie images on some servers. - Fixed wrong category and channel positions in their lists when the positions were updated on server - Fixed a Crash in VOD when opening categories. - Updated Android Libraries to Improve app performance - Fixed a bug with PVR and HLS Streams and it would not record anything - Fixed a bug when categories you moved manually reset after a box reboot. - Fixed a bug with Recently Watched on TV Series

Linux is quite powerful. Many devices are still based on Linux, including many devices from many manufacturers of well known STB. Nice think about Linux, is that you can have a very light installation which will allow you to run exactly what you want with minimal resources. Not forced to install everything, including the kitchen sink, just because someone says so. There have also been many distributions over the years designed for HTPC use all based on Linux, like OpenElec, LibreElec, CoreELEC, etc.. CoreELEC even has a version which will run on BuzzTV boxes. Let's not forget, that Android is just an operating system, that is based on a modified version of the Linux kernel. So it does share many things. For the L1 player that Buzz is releasing shortly, we do not have much info yet. I am hoping that it will be running some version of BuzzTV, but without any confirmations or details yet, i do not want to start any rumours. We will just have to wait an see what surprise they have in store for us. My understanding is that it is being targeted for the budget conscious consumer.

Home,settings, buzz tv utilities, volume control,turn force max off

I think this was a mistake We currently have 5 or so users with this issue It seems to only happen with users that are using Mesh Networks for their Wifi We cannot reproduce it ourselves though, so it makes it difficult to fix. Were in contact with Amlogic in regards to a solution for this We currently have one in their new SDK, but the SDK has some other bugs so were waiting on fixes for that.

New Update Nov 29th, 2022 Version 5.0.790 Changes: - Fixed multiple non-fatal and fatal bugs - Fixed a bug with servers that have 5 Digit Channel Numbers - Added support for up to 99,999 channels - Fixed a bug when hiding All Categories and not being able to get any categories back - Fixed MAC Server Bugs.

The U5 has as similar housing as the XRS4900 with the distinctive honeycomb pattern on the top cover. The guts are similar to the X5 (except for the internal storage which is 32GB), and features the Amlogic S905X4 chipset. This Quad-core Arm Cortex-A55 processor with ARM-G31 MP2 GPU support up to 4K with the various profiles listed below in the specs. U5 TV Box runs on Android 11 OS with preinstalled BuzzTV 5 app/launcher with quick access to Live TV, PVR+, VOD, and other features. Like the xrs4900 is also has a 2.5-inch SSD / HDD SATA bay for use with PVR, TimeShift or download from VOD. Specifications (taken from Buzz web site) Processing: Operating System : Android OS 11 CPU : Amlogic S905X4 Quad-core 64bit Cortex-A55 GPU : Mali-G31 MP2 RAM : 4GB DDR4 Storage : 32GB eMMC Connectivity: WIFI : 2T/2R Dual Band LAN : 100/1000M BT : 5.0 USB2.0 : 2 USB3.0 : 1 Type C : Data Only MicroSD : 1 Optical Audio : 1 Power Interface : 1 HDMI 2.1 (CEC) : 1 SATA Internal HDD : 1 Slot Video: Output Resolution : 4K (3840 x 2160) Video Decoder : H.265 4K MP-10@L5.1 75fps , AV1 , VP9 4K profile 2 60fps, , H.264 4K HP@L5.1 30fps (AVC) 60fps (MVC) Video Format : TS , MKV , FLV , MOV , AVI , RM , MP4 Audio Format : MPEG-1 Layer 1,2 , AAC-LC , HE AAC V1/V2 Image Decoder : JPG , BMP , GIF , PNG Dimensions: Height : 3 cm Length : 12 cm Width : 12 cm Package Contents: U5 Device BT-400 Remote Control HDMI Cable North American Power Supply 2 x AAA Premium Batteries Quick Start Card And another nice pic I found on another web site: Looks like Buzz will also be releasing an Essentials E5 (E Series) and Basic B5 (B Series) device in the near future. Not sure what the release dates are for these devices, but I guess we will soon find out.

We have a new way for Backup/Restore that were going to offer soon Which is TWRP. We removed our current solution because it wasn't working properly and took way too long to Backup. If you want to be removed from the Daily Betas, please just PM me your MAC and I can do that You're on an Internal Beta, so bugs and crashes can be expected. I apologize that it happened to you though. Sorry if automatic updates isn't what you're looking for, its just how we do it. Not all companies are the same. And we have never advertised that our boxes are rooted, so it shouldn't be implied that they come this way either. If you would have emailed us or asked on this forum, that would have been answered for you right away. Our remotes are designed mainly for IPTV, as that is what our boxes are being promoted and sold for mainly.

This feature was just added internally this week actually It will be added to our next update for all 4 Home Screens.

Thats the last public update Benfica posted a beta issue in the public forum which he shouldn't have.

We will add an ON/OFF switch to the Configuration menu that will allow up to 200% Volume adjustment We should be able to add this within a few weeks in an Update. We will test it first though, as I think VLC for example, only allows up to 125 or 150 because beyond that creates audio distortion

Thanks I’ve done it. So far so good, hopefully stays like that. Thanks.

Something is triggering a black screen overlay we use to black out Debian when no video But in this case it's overlaying on top of video We will get it fixed asap
