I'm not quite sure what you mean when you say "working fine". Mine works fine! I watched the video and that is what I do EXACTLY! My point is I'll go to bed some night with approx 40 saved channels, get up in the morning and have 15 saved channels. Where did the other ones go? I look them up using search, they appear, they have the star beside them listing them as a favorite but they don't show in the favorites category. I've tried un-favoring them and re-favoring them, doesn't seem to matter. They stay in limbo. Can't blame the server, two different servers same issue. Has to be a Buzz software issue.

I have an idea of what you are experiencing,used to happen to me a long time ago and they were two reasons for it. 

1. The server is somehow reset during the night/day and it would clear the recent favorite channels you would have set. It's true. 

2. Choosing channels as favorites using a mouse doesn't work or any other setting that has to be toggled on buzz. Try hiding categories using a mouse, when you are done you still see them showing up. It's true.

By chance, are any of the favorite channels in a category that you have hidden?

Anyone know if the stream option can be changed the HLS on BuzzTV 4? Can't seem to find it in settings. It is an option I believe on BuzzTV 5

Do you find this format works better than ts? 

So it has to be a buzztv 4 issue

Experiencing sound lost after service freezes for a while similar to what happens and what's reported in the 4000 section. It doesn't happen on the 3000 neither 4900

Maybe..... But what is it that this buzz cannot do??? Innovation is their strength 

Would be nice but that may depend on the service being used.....where 2 connections are allowed.

That happens to me when I use the default player and then when I switch to the secondary player some streams lag

I experience this both on the 4900 and 3000 using secondary player on wickediptv. It must be a codec issue but I love my secondary player, always have lol

I experienced this but only after the channel I was watching would freeze up. 

Niceeeeeeeeeee

I have a service that has over 30 but only 8 show in list

But you still have to be back and forth and don't tell me you've created a favorite channel list. 

What I mean is the ability to show channels within more than one category..... In one category. 

I noticed the stuttering when using wickediptv service but with LiveTV. I then tried it on a 3000 unit and the same thing happened using all players. Maybe it's a codec issue indeed. 

Hey guys, if it's one feature I would love the buzz team to implement in the buzz 5 app is the option to add a list for favorite groups/categories. Reason being they are alot of services out there that split USA content into various lists (kids, documentary, general, sports, music). Same thing for UK and Canada and some other countries. This means the user has to be back and forth in these categories searching for channels/TV shows to view...... It is a painstaking journey. That's why OK2/OK3 is unique, it's the only service I've seen thus far with an English category that combines USA, CANADA & UK channels altogether. Then a section for sports and kids. 

But this just one service and people use others that's more complicated. It would be nice and easy to place only certain categories in a favorite lists. I've used services that had up to 30 categories, no joke and it's pain navigating them. I would like to read some of the other member's thoughts and I hope it can be implemented soon. Thanks

Seems like he has a partner in the 4500 section about recording. Can you imagine him buying ice cream on a cone and it falls off.....

You don't even know who the mods are.

Geez, he even came here tooo

Ammm, can you guys just close the thread. He can return the unit  and go on with his life. Clearly he is not satisfied because of one feature and you will always find those people. Heck, they are features alot of us would like but we aren't acting like him. Just close the thread guys.

Pretty hard to pair when it wont turn on?

I was thinking that he had already got the unit working. But found himself in a situation where he goes to switch it on after it being off and it would start up. 

Have you paired the remote control to the unit? 

Were you prompted to pair the remote to the device when you were setting it up for the first time?

The built in Default player on the Buzz app is VLC already.

Its LIBVLC

 

We can look at adding a feature to support external players though in a future update.
It will only work if you have other players installed on your box though.

So which player does secondary represent?

It's dead to me.  Literally!

I guess as long as the user knows how to get out of it there is nothing wrong with using it. I do like the options buzz give, different tastes for different people

It really is bright NBS lol. Just last night I did one of those twist and turns and thought my wife didn't turn off the lights. So I switched of the unit via remote and that red light really does the trick

When I first tried this launcher and couldn't get back out. I got so scared lol. Never used it again

Thanks DU, for posting this here.
