Did you try 0000?

Having it boot up every day is the best imo.

When in the TV screen, press the menu button, and it would be on the bottom left.. 5.0.xxx Oh, and do you have you have your box set for shutdown or suspend when you press power button ? ie: when you power up, do you see the buzz logo every time ?

I have issues with EPG as well with this update. This is for an X5 box using XC login . It gives me "No information" with EPG, and scroll to 8 hours later it has a few hours of valid EPG. Weird I tried to clear EPG and change to "server" login and back to XML . Same thing . I installed Tivimate on this box and used same XC login . EPG works fine on Tivimate.

Sorry, but what is you XI server ? An IPTV service ? Is it using MAC/XC or M3U ? Can you connect to this service using another device ? When you say it doesn't connect, can you elaborate ? What message do you get ?

what you have done to troubleshoot so far? more info needed

First of all, it is not a "beta". It has not been a beta for nearly 5 years now What version are you running now (hit menu button, and should be on bottom left). Latest version is 5.0.961 For your EPG issue, have you tried to "CLEAR EPG" to see if it repopulates ? If EPG gets corrupted for some reason, it may fail to subsequently update, so you may need to clear it. Should be in the menu->settings->configuration if you scroll down to the EPG section. After you select "CLEAR EPG" give it 4 or 5 seconds, until you get the message saying it was cleared, before returning to main video screen.

What is your definition of "regular setup stuff". When you boot the new machine, it will ask you basic stuff like language, and to pair the remote, and I believe to connect to network. You can do all these, and the box will then be able to take any updates (firmware and/or software). Then when you give it to your son, he only needs to connect to his wifi (easy enough), and add his IPTV provider credentials. If you want to test it, you can possibly even use your IPTV server credentials to test the box, and then when you are done, you can easily delete the server entry, leaving it blank for your son to be able to enter a new server. I do this all the time for friends and colleagues all the time. These boxes do NOT force you to sign into services like google play, etc...

If you mean cast the Live TV from the Buzz App to another device This isn't possible

clear cache and see if that helps

I had the same issue with both servers. One is Mac and one is XC. I will try the setting suggestion and see. Thank you!

I have always formatted it on a Windows PC as exFAT. But I do believe formatting on the box would also be exFAT in the latest version of Android on buzz boxes. But you if you format on box, make sure to format as "portable storage" not "internal storage". Internal Storage (aka adopted storage) was a nice concept ages ago, but when it fails, it pretty much forces you to reformat the media box, instead or just losing your recordings. Also, while you have it on the PC, check on the WD web site to see if they have (or need) any firmware updates. It's obviously easier to do on a PC, instead of once it is installed on an android box.

Can you post a pic of your screen?

No need to open another thread.. You could have just answered the questions that were asked in your previous thread from a few days ago. You posted, but never replied to the questions. Can't help if you don't reply. https://stbtalk.com/topic/14873-server-error/#comment-41251

They are not targetting the Buzz boxes. All of mine work fine on multiple servers. But many ISPs are blocking certain types of traffic and destinations. You may have to use a VPN service to bypass any blocking being implemented by your ISP. And have you verified that it is not an issue on the server end ? This has nothing to do with you specific Buzz box, and we do not discuss specific services on this forum.

Since this roll out I have lost th ability for my EPG, any reason why?

Try creating a new server entry. You can call it whatever you want (myserver2) and see if this newly created entry will download the program guide.

The BT350 remote does NOT pair/program like the BT400/500. The BT350 has 4 IR programmable/learn buttons, which you can program for TV use. The rest only pairs to the box via Bluetooth. If there is any interaction between TV and Box, it would be through the HDMI CEC.

for tv setup is easy. all he has to open up buzztv smart remote app from Home Screen and follow onscreen instructions. super easy.

As mentioned, it is NOT possible.

As I am saying , I want to mirror the Live Tv app from the buzz android tv box to a Television in a different floor as Casting , is there any way of doing so ? I am not looking to run a new Hdmi cable through the floor/wall .

Well, I just checked and after switching to external player, and selecting a movie and hitting play, it does give me a popup/selection window at the bottom to be able to select one of my installed external players (like I mentioned, I have VLC/MX and HB installed) so I have a choice. If I select "just once" when I choose, it will ask me every time. If I select "always" then it will no longer ask me, and launch the external player automatically. Since I do a lot of testing of different media, I typically select "just once", so if a player has issues, I can easily select another player and try again.
