It tries to keep recording for 2 minutes if a stream buffers or becomes corrupted
The issue with most servers is they use Dynamic URLs, so if the stream buffers or disconnects on the server side for more than 2 minutes.
When it fixes itself, it creates a new Dynamic url, therefore the recording cannot continue and finishes.

Do you know which servers available that don't use dynamic URL's, is there a way for us to find this out?

I set up to record a 2 hour show it recorded 1.39 hrs, it was on again at midnight so I set it to record again through the guide and it recorded 1:10:51 so for me a problem still persists. I also installed a new 500gb ssd a couple weeks ago.

5.0.765

I've set up a recording for later today so I'll see if this works any better.

I have the 4900 and many times it doesn't record a full program, even when the red (rec light) is on the whole times. Other times it will record and if you hit rewind or fast fwd it goes back to the beginning every time. There are times it works perfect and it all works the way it's supposed to but more time it doesn't and I can say I honestly don't trust it.

ok only your suggestions are qualified then

How long are you on the home screen?

Instead of not only having the weather on the home screen which is used probably the least, how about adding it to the info bar and there's also room in the guide as well?

How come were all not getting these updates then? Do we have to ask for them every time, how do we know when there's an update?

January 6th  is the last time the 4900 had an update and that was the beta firmware V20220106. I've seen more updates for the es and x5 since then. Before January I'd agree with you. And when the 4900 first came out you could save fav list and they took it out.

in all fairness buzz_guy is not wrong.

Yes we were told to update at our own risk because it's beta. But we've seen two boxes come out since the the 4900 and updates rushed out for those and it seems like the 4900 has been forgotten.

In any case I've been having problems with one of the two 4900's I have. I did a factory reset yesterday hoping to rectify the few problems with the having to switch to default player once a day and then back to secondary to get a picture or for the guide to update properly. Now that I did the reset I can't have my fav list in the order I want them in. All I get is numerical, alphabetical and favorites.

Would also be great to bring back the ability to save our favs to a usb so we could load them on a next box if anything or like how I had to do a reset.

Press the Menu Button

Go to configuration

Change the Player from Secondary to Default

See if that helps.

Done, I'll let you know how this works later. Thanks!

The two servers I have, have their own app for their server, the app works without the mac address, it allows you to put it on multiple devices . It's ok but all the remote buttons won't work with it and the guide is nowhere near as nice,  so I'd much rather use the buzztv app.

Since update I've been experience quite a lot of buffering on two different servers. When I switch to their app it works fine, when I go back to the LIVE TV (Buzztv app) the buffering starts.
