I finally got around to doing this today. From Version 4.0.530 2022-07-12 - To Version 5.0.766 2022-09-19 When I got into BuzzTV 5 all of my information was there my Gmail the last time I used apps on BuzzTV 4 it started downloading my apps from Gplay. I was under the impression I would be working on a clean install. I backup to a USB drive and left it in when I updated could that be it? On the home screen if I go to settings and push anything there it goes to black screen and asks if I want to close it or wait, maybe something conflicting from my BuzzTV 4 Install? I can push on live TV and it asked me to setup sever which I could not get from the settings button and TV is working. Also I can pick VOD, TV Series and PVR but none of the other apps/icons on the home screen, I get the crash again . Should I do a reset or hard reset? Do I still need to PM my mac to get updates? Any help would be appreciated.

Will do. Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. This is my only box and I understand the risk my wife thinks I am nuts to buy a new phone and hack it the same day . I don’t use many apps only KODI, Solid Explorer, and Live TV. I have around 3500 video files to import and the SMB can be tricky. I created a backup of the KODI data folder so I am hoping it it will restore my SMB settings as well? I don’t use favourites. I was more hoping to get search and pause Live TV working.

Thank you appreciated. I am used to hacking my phones so I can usually do an update this means keeping all my info, or a clean install start fresh. So I figured an update would keep all previous apps and settings.

Just found this forum last night, I did a lot of reading not just here but can’t find these answers. I have a BuzzTV XR4500 running BuzzTv Version 4.0.530, 07/12/2022 and would like to test the beta 5 but have a couple questions. Is this an update or a clean install? Will the server and other settings still be there? Will apps like Kodi need to be reinstalled? My original remote died but I have a ARQ100 can I complete the setup with only this remote?
