@Emporium Ok, I followed all those steps and tested, and the issue is resolved. The volume stays at the level it was at when I shut it down. Thanks, @nbs.@sea157@dishuser, as well, for your help with this. No more yelling at my kids when they forget to turn down the volume when turning the box on

Ok, I came back to the tv and it was in the Android menu. Took a really long time to get there. Did a hard reset, now the box boots up like 10 times faster. Restored and I'm not able to connect to my server so I'm waiting on my guy to respond for that part, then I'll be able to test the volume and let you guys know. Thanks for all your help so far. I think this is going to work. The box is responding so much quicker now already.

Ok, thanks for your help so far. I backed up everything to a USB thumbdrive. Now I'm trying to reset and there is nothing in the menus to do that, so I'm trying a hard reset (I've done this before on other boxes). For some reason, the hard reset isn't working as expected. I unplug the unit, press in the reset button and hold it while plugging the unit back in and keep it this way, but it only ever shows a BuzzTV logo screen and nothing else. Am I missing something for the hard reset?

Yeah, I agree it's really strange. Super irritating. Ok, I will try that. Never backed up a box before, how do I do that?

This setting was set to off already. The only thing that changed when I turned it on was that it did not allow me to change the volume at all. When I turn it off, the box still starts up at max volume, but I can durn it down from there. Thanks for suggesting this, but it's not fixing the issue.

Where is it? I can't find it anywhere.

This issue has been happening for a few weeks now, and I can't link it to any event, such as a firmware update. When I turn it on and go to LiveTV, the volume is at the Max setting. It startles everyone in the house! It's getting really annoying, and I've looked everywhere in the settings and can't seem to find anything that fixes it. I would really appreciate some help. Thanks! Here are specs on my box: U5 128 Firmware Version: V20230815 Current IPTV Version: 5.0.935

Thanks everyone for your help! Managed to get the files off using ES File Explorer.

How do I transfer them onto a USB? I'm on v5 and my box is a 4500

I can't figure out how to get PVR recordings from my BuzzTV and onto my Computer so that I can use them in other ways. Can this be done? Anyone with experience doing this? TIA
