This was the reply to dishuser and Emporium.

Naw won't work because sometimes the channels I want to group together

are not even sequential  I mean one channel maybe channnel 300 and the next

one of the same TV show maybe 350 or 400 or something else.

So I may have a channel like this

 

304 24/7| The Dukes of Hazzard

Next channel of the same show maybe

467 24/7-EN| The Dukes of Hazzard

And yes this is what is happening.

I dunno how these providers determine how to order their lists but some one

is doing a horrible job at it.

So Ya ordering by number isn't going to work because they aren't sequencial and

they even have different tags before them.  I don't get these brain dead

IPTV providers who organize things like this.

 

This is the problem I am facing. so ordering by number isn't going to help me.

Oh and I can find them but I have very specific needs such as my 24/7 channels

and other stuff so it does make it harder.

 

Maybe not but there could be a way to turn on or off the feature in the settings if a

person doesn't want to use it.  I mean if android IPTV apps can put a feature in like this

then BuzzTV should be able to sneak it in there some where. If you can do this on the

phone.  We should be able to do this on a Buzz TV XR4000 box running Android 9.

Apps like OTT Navigator have it.

 

Ya well filtering out tags would be a great feature for BuzzTV 5.x in the future maybe

providing the CPU would be able to handle it. I mean a lot of apps on android

have that feature already available.  So it should be possible maybe consider

this for a future possibly? An imporvement / feature for Buzz TV 5.x

This is the problem I am facing. so ordering by number isn't going to help me.

So here are a couple examples of tags.

Because It seems like some folks are not understanding

what I meant by "tags"

 

 

See all of the US| tag

 

It isn't bad when they are all the same but sometimes providers have multiple tags

in the same channel group and that is what messes up your sorting..

Some providers are just stupid out there trust me I have found some of the

dumbest IPTV providers out there I think.

 

 

Here is another example notice there are two tags here in the same group

this is what is messing me up on sorting there is

24/7| and  24/7-EN|  all in the same group so it messes up your sorting

why a provider would do this I don't know why not just call em 24/7| I don't

know everything in the group is English  that is already specified by the

group name being 24/7 | English.

This is what I mean about IPTV providers being dumb.

 

There isn'rt much a user can do if the IPTV provider are idiots and can't seem

to get rid of them as with the Buzz TV XR 4000 we can't edit channel names.

So the only other thing we can do is filter them. My question would be is the

CPU on the XR 4000 strong enough to be able to handle doing such filtering

how often is the M3U playlist loaded and would it affect the operation of

the Buzz TV XR 4000 box if something like this was added.

as you said?

posting that you have the latest is useless info

what tags are you referring to?

I told u what tags I was referring to ISP

Put in tags before the channel names

Like VIP or CA or USA or other tags like that before the the channel name that nesses up my channel sorting.

Those are the tags I am talking about

One providers put before the channel
name.

And manually sorting the channels is not an option when it comes to hundreds of channels.

Why I said as I said...

I just put it in another post yesterday or the day before I put it in another post  but it still applies.

as I said dishuser

latest firmware: V20220919

and CUrrent IPTBV Version 5.0919

Buzz TV XR4000

 

The Extra tags providers put in mess up my filtering

and channel odering I would ike to get rid of them.

stead of having to manually oganize hundreds of

channels.  which isn't an option here.

so ho do you do thiis with the Buzz TV XR 4000

How do you filter the tags out on the different channel names

as well as the different channels themselves with the Buzz TV XR 4000

a lot of apps today have an option for this to filter oiut unwanted tags.

whhich messes with your channel sorting.

were they put like 24/7 oir VIP or CA or USA before a channel or into

part of the channel.

 

How do you get rid of these with the Buzz TV XR 4000

 

If you can;t then this is something that would definately be a great

feature for Buzz TV 5.  I am running the latest version of Buzz TV 5

and my firmware I just checked and there are no updates.

 

Thank you,

Because it took forever to do ....   doing it this way unchecking the one

favourite rececking the other favourites groupo

there are hundreds of trhem

 

what I am suggesting is a better way move channels

between the favourites group.

 

I mean you already have a goodf system for

mass organizing channels with your current system

is there no way you can exapand on that  to be able

to mass move channnels across different gtroups

in Buzz 5.x.  Where you can mass select channels from

one favoujrites group and then move them over to another.

 

I am just trying to help improve Buzz TV 5.x

I think this would be a marvelous feature.

 

I mean  I am trying to help here and all I get

is attutide from people here and laughed at.,

The people here seem to be more like bullies.

 

I don't want to have to do a backup and edit a yml file manually you should be able

to move the favourites around  from Favourite Group to Favourite group

easily between them.

 

And it takine about 3 - 4 clicks per edit and to modify the group it is in and havimg

hundreds of channels to do to get out out of "Favourites" now and uncheck it

from there.  That can end up being several hundred clicks and is very time consuming.

There has to be a better design.

 

The way are doing it now on Buzz 5.x is slow and bulky if you are trying to do

several hundred channels.  I think there needs to be a new method put into place

to be able to move favourites across favourite groups like this  to be able to mass select and move them from one

to the other.  This should be alble to be done without having to manually edit a yaml file come on guys

get a grip.  that isn't ans answer for most people. Most people here wouldn't know how to do that

you want a process that everyone can do to mass move favourites from one group to another to select

them and move them across to another group.

 

Dishuser because I have so many channels i want to seperate them out.

That was also going to be my next question Emporioum thanks let me try that I wasa having a

hardf time getting it to be removed from the other categeory.

 

Since I do have a large number of channels to do this is going to be painfully

slow. It would still be way faster with Buzz 5.x if there was a way to

move favourites betwwen the favourites groups

some how.

Can This be a feature in the futire for Buzz 5.x it would make

handlinig moving large lists way faster this is extremely slow

doing it this way!

Ya but they are already in the Favourites Category how can I move

them out of Favourites and into 24/7 favourites without having to reselect

them all you should be able to simpley move saved favourites across different

favourites group.  The way you are telling me to do it is I am going to have to

select them all again and there are a lot of them. Then they would also

end up in both Favourites and 24/7 Favourites.  There must be a way

to just shift them around from different favourite groups so you don't have them

in both groups and then have to go back and delete them from you select again

in the Favourites Group and I will miss some doing it this way too because the list

is extensive.  I really don't want to have to do it again.

 

If your saying that you can't do this right now with Buzz 5.x then can we make

this a possible feature  in the near future?

Stop this harassment now Ryu it won't be on my side I know how to run my network right.

Ok so before we used to have just one favourite's group but it appears now

that you can create another favourites group now. So now I have two.

One called Favourites the 2nd called 24/7 Favourites.

 

So this was done befoere this was an an option and I have all my favourites in the 'Favourites"

category.

But what I want to do is take my favourite 24/7 channels now put them in the 2nd

Favourites group from Favourites and move them over to 24/7 Favourites.

 

But I can't seem to find a way to be able to move favourites across the different

favourite groups.

 

I am running BuzzTV X4000 which is using the latest BuzzTV 5 version

5.0.919 

And the latest Firmware version V20220919 I just did a check and it is telling

me I am running the latest version.

 

So how do you move out of my Favourite Groups and put it into another please

with the Buzz TV XR 4000.

 

Thank you,

 

Actually it isn't on my my side at all.  There is No issues on my side what so ever.

It isn't time for a new box they need to fix the issue.

nor did I mention 4K content either. Most of the

stuff I am streaming is 720P or 1080P

I have just as much if not more knowledge of networks

than most of the people here so don't say

"no wonder I am still working an admin job"

You shouldn't need any where close to 100 Mbit / s

to stream 720p or 1080P content either which is

what I am streaming.

But the speeds should  closer to the max than they are.

This is an issue that needs to  looked at.

It isn't time for a new box they need to fix the issue.

Thanks I will do a 256 GB card then.

I was reading stuff about the sizes of the cards and different type

of cards and stuff  it was all related to my question.

Emporium I have a very good concept of Network design probably more than you ever  will and this this exactly why

I want an admin because I don't want to waste my time arguing with clueless people like you. Please stop

spamming this thread and let the devs respond to the bug report.  This was posted here as a bug report

so please let the developers look into this issue and if the developers have any.

Any I did SSH into the router and it is full duplex and it is still getting extremely slow speeds,

The full potential is a lot more than what it is pulling now. The speeds are horrible that I am getting

now from the Buzz TV XR 4000 box considering the network I am on which is a 1 Gbps connection and

1 Gbps across my whole network. This is a bug issue with the box so please let the Developers look into

this.

Again I am not on wireless this is a hard wired connection plugged right into the router itself.  So wireless

isn't even coming into play here.   When you have a cat 6 cable plugged directly into the Buzz TV XR 4000

box the speeds should be way higher than what I was getting. 

This is most definitely a bug that the developers should be looking at.

One thing for the developers I know that Buzz TV XR4000

box is based off of Android and Android is based off of

Linux but what I am wondering is if the box by default

is set to transmit in full or half duplex that would make a

difference in speed.

If this was one of my Linux servers here I could run a command like

ethtool eth0  and it would show me the all of that.

But how can I do that on the Buzz TV XR 4000 to see if it is connected

full or half duplex because my router I know will connect full duplex by

default if the network card supports it but this would make a difference

in the speeds too if it is setup to only use half duplex by default.

My router will accept either I know that but I can't find a way to check

it on the box is there a way developers on the Buzz TV XR 4000?

Thanks,

Emporium are you a developer if not then why are you responding?

And the connected issue IS still a bug it isn't detecting the connection right and it still

needs to be fixed

And yes I can compare the two and yes I know that the XR 4000 only has a 10 / 100 but with my internet speed

I should be darn close to maxing out that link and it is no where even CLOSE to that.  The speeds are

horrible.  It should be going closer to 90 Mb/s at least.

Even with it having an older processor it still should be able to pull way more than it is.

Why would I try using Wifi it is going to even be slower than a wired connection.  Wifi isn't going to be

any better.

Also toggling Wifi off and on didn't work still says disconnected. Even after me doing that I tried

that after you mentioned that.

I opened up the most recent version of Google Chrome on the the Buzz TV XR 4000

and the speeds are the not that far off from before.  speedtest.net is Ookla and they are known to be good which

is what I was using before.

When I went to https://fast.com/ I got the following for a speed

It it says Your Internet Speed is 30 Mbps

LOL nope not even close My speed is closer to 1 Gbps and I have pulled 700 to 900 Mpps

on this connection.

To compare when I went to that same site on my laptop it said my Speed was 1.3 Gbps

when I went to fast.com from my laptop again.

There are no background apps running as I said I rebooted the box and did all the testing

again and it was coming out to be about the same.

 

Oh FYI Emporium I am a trained Network Admin who has worked in the IT field

I know what I am talking about here.

And no do not have a dlink router or switch this is plugged right into an Asus Router

this isn't a network issue again this is something with the Buzz TV XR 4000 box itself.

And again it does matter for the speeds especially when you are downloading an EPG where

the provider has several thousand channels or even 10s of thousands of channels.

I should be able to get a way better speed out of this box than J am considering the network

I am on.  I know my Network and I built it all myself and I know what it is capable of

and it can do way better than this. This is something with the Buzz TV XR 4000 box

itself.

Again both of these issues need to be looked at and are still an issue please fix both of

them Devs.

Thanks,

So I know the Buzz TV XR 4000 comes with a Micro SD Card slot on it

and I found other articles mentioning this as well

https://blog.iptvinsider.com/buzztv-xr-4000-iptv-box-review/

"AV, HDMI, 3.0 USB, 2.0 USB, Micro TF/SD Card option"

But what i don't know is since the Buzz TV XR 4000 is running off

of Android 9 what is the max size that this card can be is?

How big of a Micro SD Card can you put in these I wanted to

know before I got anything.

'Now is this slot a  MicroSDHC (High Capacity)?  or

MicroSDXC (extended Capacity) what exactly is it on this

device?

If it is a TF  like this person is saying in that article the transflash

AKA Micro SD  card slot then how big can I go? 

If it is only am older SD card then I am reading that it only has a capacity

of up to 2 GB then. That isn't that much space really when it comes to

recording videos on the PVR that would get eaten up fast.

https://www.gearbest.com/blog/new-gear/tf-card-vs-sd-card-what-is-it-and-9-easy-ways-to-help-you-tell-their-differences-6305

Can one of the developers please let me know what the exact

spec is on that SD micro card slot please.

The other question is how do you get the PVR To now record to

that card as well automatically I believe I read some where

it is now possible with Buzz 5 which I have right now.

Thanks,

So you know this is a Buzz TV XR 4000 box that I have here

it is running the latest version of the software being 

Firmware Version V20220105

Current IPTV Version 5.0.769

So I have noticed a few things first thing is when I go into the settings and into Network

in there it says that the Ethernet is not connected but it is. So why isn't the box detecting

that the Ethernet is plugged in because it is.  This connection is wired and has an Ethernet

cable plugged into which goes directly to my router Which is maybe 15 feet at most away

using I believe a cat 6 cable.

When a Network cable is plugged in the Buzz TV XR 4000 box should detect it but it isn't but

I still have full connectivity. It is set up to pull an IP from DHCP which the box has done

as you can see in the picture that I attached.

The 2nd issue I am noticing is wow some very slow speeds coiming from my

Buzz TV XR 4000. Now I am on a very fast connection a Gig-bit connection

My connection caps out at 1000 Mbps now when I run a speed test on the box

using an app that I put on there the speeds are horrible for it being a wired connection

I was getting 23.3 Mbps Down and 90.1 Mbps up.

Now in comparison when I run the same test on my laptop which is also wired

using a network cable I get the following speeds on my laptop.

I was getting 902.59 Mbps Down and 107.17 Mbps up when I ran the same test on the same

network That is much better. So why is the Buzz TV XR 4000 box getting such bad speeds

my network can clearly handle more and it isn't coming close to capping out my network.

https://www.speedtest.net/result/c/e675c1b7-cb94-4a34-a623-c6a993c6fcdf

I even took the network cable off that I was using to my laptop and ran it over

to my Buzz TV Box and plugged it in reran the test again on the Buzz TV Box and

still got low speeds i did that to ensure that this wasn't a network cable issue

which it wasn't I am trying to eliminate everything here. This clearly isn't my

network and is not a network issue here.

So why are the speeds so just terrible on the Buzz TV XR 4000 box

when the network clearly can do a lot more and provide a lot more

bandwidth than what the box is using.

I believe that this is something with the box itself and yes the box was

just reset recently too when I went up  to the Beta this is not an issue

so please don't tell me to reset my box that was just recently done and isn't

the issue here.  

I believe this is something to do with the  Buzz TV XR 4000 box and is a bug.

with it.

Also so you know I have rebooted the box then rerun the test and it doesn't

change the speed either it is still low. So that doesn't fix the issue. 

The images can also be seen at the links bellow

https://ibb.co/XFG3Ktd
https://ibb.co/Xyp9sjW

Can you please look into these issues please.

Thank you,

 

Oh and I can't seem to go back and edit the post anyways it isn't letting me even to remove the MAC and serial

even if I did want to. I can't edit the post it seems. oh well its not a big deal anyways.

I have this hunch that some one used my mac and / or serial to push me some kind of update

that fixed it.  What ever some one did seemed to work.

Thanks again,

As I said I did do a hard reset and it didn't help.  Oh lord its nbs again ....

It doesn't matter about having my mac and serial in here either Ryu not

like anyone can really do anything with it. 

Ok well I was working with the Buzz TV XR 4000 box and it just randomly
started doing an update for the Buzz TV App and then it just started working after it
just did this random update on just the buzz TV app the one that it said was stopping before
so it just randomly started working it seems after this mysterious update that just showed up.

Without the update that it just did though I doubt that it would have started working.  I don't know why

it just randomly decided to update the Buzz TV app which was the one that kept not responding but

it did and it seemed to have worked.

 

Oh Nice UI by the way on the Buzz 5 I will let you know if I have any sound issues on the Buzz 5 update

like I had on the Buzz 4.x version.

 

Thanks,

So over in another thread I was told oh you need to upgrade to Buzz TV 5 oh

you need to upgrade to Buzz TV 5 so I did now I regret it.

https://stbtalk.com/index.php?/topic/4339-buzz-tv-xr-4000-losing-sound-randomly/

I followed the instructions on how to install the Buzz TV 5 from the

other post.  It installed successfully the  box rebooted now it says

Buzz TV 5 and it starts up and then it says Buzz TV 5 has stopped responding

and it just keeps doing that it keeps flashing that up on my screen.

Now because I was instructed by allaboutthebuzz and a another person over in the

other thread I had started about a sound issue I was having.

https://stbtalk.com/index.php?/profile/200-allaboutbuzz/

https://stbtalk.com/index.php?/topic/4339-buzz-tv-xr-4000-losing-sound-randomly/

"Upgrade to 5 You will enjoy it"

Not really enjoying it right now  I can't do anything with my Buzz TV XR 4000 right

now because all it does is keep looping and displaying that message saying that Buzz TV 5

has stopped responding every few seconds.  I am not too happy right now.

over there now I have a non-functional box.  I have tried rebooting it

again I even reset the Buzz TV XR 4000 box.   Running Version 2.211105

Installed just a while ago September 15 2022.  Now all it does is keep looping

I really can't do much because that just keeps popping up on my screen now

I have a non-functional Buzz TV XR 4000 box  I am not happy.

A picture of this can be seen of my Buzz TV XR 4000 box
serial number and me doing the upgrade.

https://ibb.co/gw72Wy2
https://ibb.co/Jzv60d4

Mac: D07658C09308
Serial #: BUZZTVXR494809308

Help me please fix this!

  

This issue is STILL occurring this issue has not fixed.

I reported this back in 2021 and the problem still exists today.

My Buzz TV XR 4000 is still experiencing the same

issue  the box is upgraded the latest version of Buzz TV

as well.

My Buzz TV Firmware is V20211111

and Current IPTV Version 4.0.530

When I do an update it says it is the latest version is installed

Also do NOT tell me to reset the box I have already did that multiple

times and it does not fix the issue!  I have already factory reset it multiple

times and it does not fix the issue. This is a bug with the BuzzTV XR 4000

software itself that you need to fix.

This is NOT an issue with the provider but the box itself I have

tried multiple providers and I get the same issue weather I use

a portal m8u file.  It is most definately a bug with the box.

The sound just randomly cuts out  randomly the video will be there

and there will be no sound the way to fix it is to change the channel up

one channel and then back to the channel you are watching again and then

you have sound again for a while then randomly it will cut out again at

random times.

This really needs to be fixed please fix this immediately.
