WesternQB Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 Time setting for the PVR has not worked. Only partial bits of shows were recorded. Assume that there must a blue light on the BuzzTV XRS4500 but the tv does not have to remain on while recording. For small snippets of recorded material that did work the audio playback was a fraction of a second out of sync with the video. Any solutions out there? Quote
nbs. Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 i have no issues recording you recording to internal or external storage? did you format your stick if external? Quote
WesternQB Posted July 21, 2021 Author Posted July 21, 2021 Using the internal storage. My wife just taped a show and it did tape but notice that the audio is out of sync with video. Very distracting. Seems that you can only record 1 show at a time as well which is limiting. Quote
WesternQB Posted July 21, 2021 Author Posted July 21, 2021 Both of our 2 new purchases are experiencing similar issues with recorded playbacks. The audio is out of sync with the video by about .25 sec. to .5 sec. I don't know if the internet speed of about 50 MBS is hindering the quality of recording or not? Not sure if there may be an update forth coming shortly which may cure the issue? Too distracting to watch at the moment though. Quote

WesternQB Posted July 21, 2021 Author Posted July 21, 2021 No sure what you mean by alternate "media players" then??? Can you explain where I need to go to try alternate media players? Quote
WesternQB Posted July 21, 2021 Author Posted July 21, 2021 The audio within the LiveTV function of my BuzzTVxrs4500 synchs fine with the audio. It is only within the playback function of the PVR that there are issues with synching between the audio and video. It appears the format for sound is set for AC3 (Dolby Digital) with "System Sounds" turned on and the words "Surround Sound" highlighted in blue. I am wondering if this is the correct setting for our box? Quote
WesternQB Posted July 21, 2021 Author Posted July 21, 2021 So "menu, configuration and video player" was set to "default". The only other option was "Secondary" and when I switched and checked back on my original recorded sample the audio is still with a delay and is out of synch. This is perhaps because it was recorded in the previous setting. What I need to do is record another sample in this new setting to see if it is still out of synch. I am trying another recording of live tv from about 6:03 pm until about 6:20 pm in the "secondary" setting. So in the new setting and playback with a new recording under that new "secondary" setting continues to have the audio out of synch with the video by about .25 to .5 of a second. No change in comparison with the previous sample. Any other suggestions? Quote
Maestro701 Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 Try recording to an external storage device like an SSD or flash drive. Quote
WesternQB Posted July 23, 2021 Author Posted July 23, 2021 I will give it a try but in researching and checking other people's comments you can see that this is not an isolated issue. Others are experiencing similar problems with the PVR component within the Buzz Box XRS 4500. Quote
nbs. Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 the 4500 will be getting the new buzz5 software in the next month or two so this issue will be moot Quote
