you want your backup on external

transfer from internal to external

if you were to do a reset and only had backup on internal you would lose it

also on your 4500 did you do a factory reset and see if restore worked or not?

Emporium,

I just did a backup on the XRS4500 and when I hit restore it show up as being able to restore.

On that same USB drive the XRS4500 MAX is also on it, but that backup is not shown when I try to restore it on the XRS4500

This seems to be telling me I CAN NOT USE the backup of the XRS4500 MAX on the XRS4500 like dishuser thought I could do.

Am I correct in assuming you can only use a backup on identical Buzz boxes?  (Example XRS4500 to another XRS4500 and XRS4500 MAX to another XRS4500 MAX)

it's not what I thought it could...lol

it actually works and is interchangeable with the buzztv 5 software

did you use a file manager?

cause I just used my 4900 backup on my x5 and had no problems

and that's why I use the backup from my x5...lol

that's why if you need a ps replacement order it from buzz

Thank you dishuser!

You are lucky it was in that direction.  DO NOT use the U5 power supply on the older boxes (except the xrs4900).

The U5 and XRS4900 use a 12V power supply (due to the internal HDD), most (if not all) of the other Buzz boxes use a 5V power supply.  Do it in the other direction and it may be a "smokey" experience.

 

 

due to internal hdd?

every device has that

are you using the power supply that came with it?

My Samsung TV kicks in screen saver after 2 hours, so not very useful 

wow

my skyworth screen saver setting starts at 1 minute if I want

it may have got overlooked in an update

I'm positive it will get resolved in a few weeks

the devs are busy with android 13 and buzztv 6 right now

I never noticed because I haven't used screen saver in over 2 years so who knows when it stopped working

So there's no chance this might be changed in a future release?

you never answered my question

actually if I remember correctly it only worx on home screen

when do have screen saver set to start?

after wipe data factory reset it reboots

so to pick those other options you would need to do a pin reset again no?

do like nbs. said and wait for allaboutbuzz to pm you back

did you send him your server id?

is youtube up to date

I just took another update yesterday or the day before

menu

what version shows at the bottom?

Hi, I have an XR4000. I

When I did my reset, the version of the box stays at 5.0.766 (Firmware V20220919)

It does not get the latest version. I did try hitting 2015, and it says, No beta updates available for you.

Also a weird thing, when I am on Live Tv, I saw an overlay that said, "New update has been installed. Buzz 5 v5.0.919"

But when I got to my update screen, it still says 5.0.766 no matter how many time I restart my box or how many times I hit "Check Update".

 

How do I get the latest update?

stick to one thread

less confusing

Hi, I have an XR4000. It worked fine for sometime.

Lately I get "Media format not supported" error for 90% of my Live TV channels. And 100% error for VOD and TV Series.

Even the stuff I watched before get this error now.

I tried, changing to secondary player and even external VLC Player, still the same issue.

I have been with the same provider for a while now.

I did a soft reset and also a hard reset (tooth pick) and still the issue remains.

 

Version

It does not get the latest version. I did try hitting 2015, and it says, No beta updates available for you.

I did DM @allaboutbuzz and asked if a new version can be pushed to my device. Awaiting response.

What are my options now?

are you updating from menu or home page?

do a hard (pin) reset

have you tried a different hdmi cable or a different port on tv?

are you using the power supply that came with it?
