How can I hide channel categories, or can I? Also, is there a way to sort them from how they are listed by default? 

 

TIA

to change categories press the blue button after pressing green button

it tells you this at the bottom

They are closed till Monday so you won't get an answer till then

they're available on saturdays now

also what button on the remote did you use to learn the mute function?

If you would just read the first line of my post .... "You can add the TV remote mute button turns the channel to "9"".

then it isn't adding it correctly

buzztv sells many different remotes

some have a mute button

That's the problem, I can't find them!

you have thousands of channels in uk category?

I find that hard to believe

Then why wouldn't you just answer and say the classic? You really don't seem to give good advice there dishuser

then that would make you stupid

I never said the classic was the best

it depends on a users needs

I replied go look at the chart

To answer your question, looks like x5 and u5 have the best specs

compare that to the specs of the classic

I do not know the channels. There are a bunch of UK shows that I enjoy watching and it's a hassle to try and find them. 

then add them to your favourites list

This is definitely an option that I would love to have. It's available on the Formuler boxes and it's super useful, not having to search through thousands of channels to find a program. Get with it Buzz!

why are you searching thousands of channels to find a program?

you know the program exists but don't know what channel carries it?

you're a troll

you agree with someone who got issues resolved by calling it a piece of shit

go away troll

far,far away

Hi all.

 

I hope you can help me. I am going to bed after posting this as I work in the morning and am losing one hour of sleep.

I'm getting a repeat error message "Google Services Framew ... keeps stopping." I am also intermittently getting  a "Buzz TV5 keeps stopping" error message.

 

I have tried putting a toothpick in the hole to reset it. Nothing.  Remove the power cord, re insert it and immediately do the toothpick in the little hole. No joy.

Resetting the box (hold power button on remote) no joy.

It's been doing this since about mid day Saturday. I was watching the England/ France rugby game when it glitched and it's been continuous since then. I disconnected power and went to watch the Dallas Reds playing against Dallas Athletic Rugby Club, ran some errands, came back, Connected power. Same message. 

Was hoping to record Ireland/ Scotland in the morning (going to work right about halftime) but I guess that's not going to happen at this rate. 

I would really appreciate your help. Thank you for your consideration.

have you tried clearing cache or data for those apps?

If you hide the category it should hide the channels in the category It doesn't for me

ya you still have to scroll thru locked channels

it's been driving me nuts cause a guy said he could remove a channel in tivimate so I said lock the channel and hide locked category

but it still appears in parent category

I locked a channel in usa and ca and locked never showed

but a reboot fixed it

thanx

using 5.0.775

doesn't exist on my x5 using same server

I know what you mean It'll hide the category but the channels are still 8n guide

nope

you can't hide a category that doesn't exist

so why have it in the organize list?

this is what I'm talking about

The way I interpreted this option is: that if you have any manually "locked" channels in any category, if you decide to "hide locked channels", they would not show up in channel list or EPG matrix.

This could be handy if there is a category which for the most part has channels you like, but there are 2 or 3 channels which either don't work, or you don't care for.  You could just "lock" the individual channels, and then if you have selected to "hide locked channels", it would not be in the list of channels as you scroll through them. 

Could be quite handy for those who don't use the "favorites" option.  I personally just flag all the channels I want as a favorite, and use that for the most part.  But categories like premium movie channels, at least on one service, there are close to 100 channels, so I don't tag them as favorites, I just switch to that category.  This would be a way to hide individual channels in that category if I know they don't work or just not something I'd ever consider watching.

However as interesting as a feature as it may be, I think there is another issue that needs to be looked at before this (which has been discussed before).   On one of my services for example, I have 3 categories that are "locked" by default (Adult, Adult Premium, and Adult Swim).  And yes, if I select that category and select a channel, it will ask me for a password. Enter password, and it will unlock the channels for a period of time.  And by default, it will NOT add them to your "recent channels list". 

BUT...  Got to "All Channel" and scroll through to the channel range of any of these "locked" category channels, and you can select them and watch them without any password requirement.  And it even adds them all to your "previous channel" list...  So it kind of defeats the locked category    

Not an issue for me (since my kids are grown adults), but I do have a few friends who have commented about it.

 

 

 

once unlocked they stay unlocked for an hour

Both of mine have locked channels on organize

yes on organize but but not in category list

whether I hide it or not it doesn't show

so if for example you don't want to see every global in CA category you still have to scroll through locked channels

but if I don't want to see every category I just hide them

there is no locked in category like others say usa or african
