  1. I know I posted it somewhere else, but I'll post it here to consolidate the bugs. --ADULT CHANNEL PIN If you go to the adult channel section and select a channel, it will prompt for the "pin". However if you go through "ALL Channels" category instead, and then select an adult channel, it bypasses the PIN request. This was an issues ages ago on BuzzTV 5, but was corrected. Guess similar fix needs to be added to buzztv 6 eventually. -- APPS tab refresh after installing a new app Also I noticed that if you go to "apps" tab, bring up some file explorer (I use solid explorer) then install some app, and exit from file explorer, the app screen is not refreshed to show the newly installed app. You need to switch from the app tab and come back, for it to refresh and include the newly installed app.
  2. The option to adjust picture settings was posted in the "BuzzTV6 Application: Wishlist for New Features and Enhancements" thread. Also, keep in mind that this is a BuzzTV forum. There is no specific support for 3rd party apps. If the issue appears using the BuzzTV apps (LiveTV, VOD, TV Series), then that is a different story and will be eventually addressed. But something that is 3rd party app specific is not.
  3. It's all encrypted to protect you On a serious note, FIRST: From LiveTV Try hitting the menu->settings-configuration and then under Guide/EPG, select the "Clear EPG" option. SECOND, if it does not work, from home screen, go into settings->apps, and for Buzztv 6 try first clear cache and see if that help. THIRD, if it does not work, you'll probably need to go into settings->apps snd do a "clear data" and then recreate the entry.
  4. Should probably PM allaboutbuzz with your provider info (please do not post providers openly). Works fine with w****. Just started 2 different movies, no issues.
  5. I'll start with the easy one. "Is there a way to get powerstation to start in Buzz 5, or must I select the app each time? " I just went into Buzztv 5, went into menu->settings->configuration, and turned on the "Start liveTV at boot" . Then exited BuzzTV 5, pulled the power on my box and then put it back. Glad to report, that it boots up, and then seconds later it launches BuzzTV 5. For the rest, I guess you can test it But the latest update going out today does fix quite a few of the issues with BuzzTV 6. Don't get me wrong, it still has a few issues to be cleaned up, but overall, it can be used for daily watching now (many of the freezing and stream issues have been addressed)..

    BT500

    "For now", it only ships with the Powerstation.

    Update

    When there is, it will be posted It all depends on how many issues they fix to warrant an update.
  8. I just download the files onto my PC and copy them to a USB stick to install. A lot easier. Or I often put them on my NAS and use a software like Solid Explorer (Similar to ES File explorer that is preinstalled, but I have I prefer solid explorer) to browse my NAS share and install from there. I rarely use my google accounts on any of my boxes. I install everything offline. Just easier to have all the APK on a single stick, so if I need to do a reset on the box, all the installers are on a single stick and can install them all in minutes.
  9. This version, seems to install and launch just fine. I don't have an account, so I did not try to log in, but it does install and launches without any errors https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/anker/eufy-security/eufy-security-v4-8-7_2132-release/eufy-security-v4-8-7_2132-android-apk-download/
  10. Glad it works. But surprised that is not the first thing your provider did when you complained it was not working. That is the first thing I do with anyone on MAC sub and complaining it does not work.
  11. Have you tried getting it from Aptoide ? Or downloading the APK and and trying that through app installer ? https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/anker/eufy-security/eufy-security-v4-8-8_3154-release/eufy-security-v4-8-8_3154-android-apk-download/
  12. Ask you supplier to do a reset for your device on his Panel.
  13. Pretty sure if you just unplug the power of your P6 box, then the BT500 would not be paired, and it would emit IR. I am not home now to test, but if it reacts like other BT buzz remotes, it will emit IR, until such time that it pairs with the box again. And from the comments above, I am assuming the BT500 is the same.

    EPG

    example, if you were given the following as URLs M3U URL: http://myserver.xyz:2186/get.php?username=johndoe&password=jdpass&type=m3u_plus&output=ts EPG URL: http://myserver.xyz:2186/xmltv.php?username=johndoe&password=jdpass Then for XC you would use for XC, you could use: URL: http://myserver.xyz:2186 username=johndoe password=jdpass And in some cases, if that does not work, try to drop the :2186 on the URL Regarding using a different EPG URL, you can. But that would assume that the channel IDs used in your provider'/s M3U, would match the IDs in the XML for them to line match. You can change the EPG URL as you please, it should not change anything regarding your favorites. It is literally just for the program guide. It is optional, because your channels will still work, even without a program guide. It is obviously better with one, but it will work fine without one.

    Reconding

    I had no issues setting up and recording over the weekend, one after the other, through the EPG, and they all worked. all 15 minute or 30 minute recordings, but there were just tests so that was fine for now. Out on business trip this week, so not home to run more tests, but you will need to be more specific how you tried to record ? Record button ? EPG ? Channel list, single epg ? During my tests, I did most of them through the full EPG. And since I did not install an nvme yet, it was to internal storage.
  16. Here is fine.. It's just that it was also reported elsewhere, which is why I mentioned it.
  17. It has already been reported and they are aware of it. For now, EPG can be accessed either through the menu, or through the home page. Keep in mind that you can still use BuzzTV 5 on this device (select from home screen). BuzzTV 6 will still have a few issues, and they are slowly being ironed out.
  18. It's not dangerous. It is google, just being google. They don't like another app store On my pixel 7 at least, I can go into the playstore options, and disable "play protect". So it stops scanning everything I try to install. I honestly don't log into the play store on my buzz boxes, since I just have all the apk I need on a usb stick and I sideload them all, so I can't really say if you can turn "play protect" off on the version installed on the boxes, but I don't see why you would not.
  19. You just download the latest apk directly from Nordvpn, put it on a usb stick and install it using appinstaller.. https://nordvpn.com/download/android/ And there is a link saying "Download VPN APK here" I did not check the aptoide on my box, but on the aptoide web site, there is no hit either for nordvpn. https://en.aptoide.com/search?query=nordvpn&type=apps
  20. I did the same thing earlier and it recorded and the light remained red the whole time. I just set another recording to start in 7 minutes, and turned it off. I'll go check later and see if it is still off But this has been like that, even on BuzzTV 5 (at least on Android 11 boxes) for quite a while now. The boxes do NOT turn on to record. I have not tried it on my Android 9 devices in quite some time however. This is not something new on Android 13 or BuzzTV 6.
  21. 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
  22. Mine is "out for Delivery" here in Montreal Should get it later today. Guess I'll have a chance to play with it a little, before my business trip next week.
  23. One thing I would like to see would be, on VOD (and possibly TV series) to be able to override the TMDB entry that something was associated with automatically. Or have other DB available instead of just TMDB (like imdb or something). Similar to what Plex allows you to do. Example, in VOD, if I search for "IF 2024", which is a new movie. It is there, and finds it, but it has the poster and metadata of the Paris 2024 Olympic Opening Ceremony If I use a different app, with the same service, it has the correct metadata. Note, the search issue is NOT necessarily a buzz issue. If you go to the TMDB DB, and search for "IF 2024" it also brings up the Paris 2024 Olympic Opening Ceremony. But if you search for just "IF" it bring up the correct movie entry as first hit. Obviously not a deal breaker by any means, but it would be nice to be able to manually override, or bring up a list of hits from the TMDB (or other) to choose from if it is wrong.
  24. As far as I know, boxes with PVR+ do not even "wake up" as you think. I have one of my boxes connected to a monitor on my desk (in my home office). And when I have recording scheduled, The box stays off (red LED) and it still records in the background. So obviously no need to shutdown afterwards And I don't put my boxes in standby. Power button is always set to "shutdown" in my case. In the past, yes, they used to wake up, record what they had to record and stay on. But pretty sure both my Classic and X5 do not do that now.
  25. Did you GRANT the app permission ? The app requires permission for "Files and Media" at least to be able to manipulate the files. Please post what box model you are using, since BuzzTV 5, runs on Android 9, 11 and 13 boxes. And ideally what version of BuzzTV 5 you are also using.
