Taking next week out of state to be 100% sure its not on my end an issue. I did this with the 4500 already 2 different states 2 different ISP providers same issue

every time I try to access one particular movie, I can see the ip address of that movie lower on screen when trying the external VLC PLayer which is 31.220.40:132:80 then right after that in the router log a DOS attack shows up from 31.220.41.116:80

No, jumped the gun, the actual ip address of the movie is a little different than the DOS attack but same prefix 31.220

I may have found the issue. I checked my router log and found it is blocking the 31.220.41.116 ip address coming in from the movie, triggering a Denial of Service Attack notice in the log

it was prior to manual Beta Update 5.0.626

Version 5.0.653 updated 01/04/2022

I did a manual Buzz update to V20220106, did not correct the issue. Mac address assigned to sub. / live tv works/ no VOD or TV-Series still I will wait for my ticket to get addressed at this point, I have no idea where the issue is. I have spent hours on this.

NBS what is your model & IPTV version ?

Yes I submitted a ticket. Have not heard a response yet, I just joined yes to see if there was anyone on the Forum that might inject help. I am not blaming support, this is not the first forum I have asked for help, I am intelligent enough to troubleshoot this device if I could fine someone that was knowledgable with the BuzzTV5 firmware and uses the same service I do. As a user I can not blame myself when I have tried 4 different model boxes, and only one the 4500 actually worked for a few try's then stopped. Either its the firmware, settings or server issues. thanks

TS & M3U8 tried both, so Yes to your question

When you say I want to blame the box, I am not, I am blaming the Support for the box, thanks Second, when you say in configuration, exactly what configuration are you pointing to ? under what selection?

Very good questions: Did I try different stream format? : I can not change stream format because it is coming from a paid IPTV Server in MP4. My Dreamlink boxes using same server play VOD fine, all Buzz boxes loaded with Buzz5 firm. will not play the VOD. Live Tv is fine, the issue seems to be with the built in Media Player. I have taken the BuzzTV boxes to another state, connected to a different ISP, same issue. So, this leads back to communication between the Buzz & the Server, selecting Play on any VOD movie results in a spinning circle non stop, if you stop it, the progrsm locks up and error message shows up to close the Buzz app.

Multiple BuzzT V models tested using the #5 firmware will not play any video when accessing the servers VOD or TV-Series sections. This is not an ISP issue. Proven to be a firmware issue using the built in Video Players within BuzzTV5 OS. Other manufacturer boxes connected to the same server and same movie selected have no issues with VOD or TV-Series.
