Once loaded 

portal not supported 

we seen this before 

My bad wifi not connected it’s unable to see 5G now 

reboot modem/router

settings/advanced settings/powerkey definition

not power options in buzztv utilities

also what powerkey setting are you using?

and are you using the power supply that came with the 4900?

when you press the green power button does it turn tv off?

I "thing" the beta list on 4000 devies was reset at one point (I think after buzztv 5 was no longer considered beta for the 4000 series).  I was on beta on my 4900 also for ages, and now it is also at public (.799).   My X5 however is on latest beta (so way past .799)

 

ya I'm 89 versions higher...lol

send pm to allaboutbuzz and provide him your Mac address.

so your 4900 is higher than 5.0.799?

this was already covered but they chose to ignore it...lol

Having the same issue. With or without VPN. 

I got a reply on their end saying that there is nothing wrong.

that error says different

here's an idea

tell your service to contact buzztv since this site and those behind it don't support iptv

the one service I have charges(4 connections) for 2 months the same as what he pays for 12 months(1 connection)

they don't care really address complaints

I wonder why

you get what you pay for

I have no issues on any of the services I use

but then again they're not budget services and listen to their customers

You know, it IS possible to release incremental updates that are tested and stable more frequently like most other tech companies do. Not criticizing their release schedule but the excuse of testing for stability being the cause of longer intervals isn't necessarily valid.

how is not valid?

you complain about no update

how many would complain if an untested update was pushed?

I agree with you. There should be more updates for these boxes. It's like they pop a couple updates out and just leave it that way. There is alot of stuff that I would change or new stuff I would do. I think they abandoned this box.

what's stopping you?

I think when vlc was created it was for mac,linux and windows os

libvlc is so it can be added to any platform or app so of course features will change according to developer since vlc is open source as in buzztv app or an android app

I am pretty sure that primary is not the same version of vlc that comes preinstalled in apps

I can't remember but I think it's libvlc

Thanks for the feedback,  my 4900 unit has same 5.0.799 so at this point I will contact BuzzTV techs and see what they suggest, I do want to say also that when trying to watch VOD movies using the Primary Player, the same error message appears " Media format not Supported" . Switching to "Backup" Player for the VOD,s correct the issue. 

So now i'm curious if your unit is also using Backup Player for VOD movies or is the Primary setting working.

 

 

I use primary for livetv and backup or external for vod/tv series

backup is a default setting for vod/tv series and primary is default for livetv

why mess with default settings?
