Update seems to have affected bluetooth. I'm getting a "Bluetooth keeps stopping" message and I can no longer pair my remote.

[Keefie]

I can also not close the app.

[Keefie]

Solved - I turned off wifi and then back on and it seems to have fixed it,

[RicFlairWoo]

So far so good, noticed after the update, looking forward to Buzz 5 on this

I have a problem with Channel up and Channel down when viewing favourites list.  

I have a favourites list in BuzzTV4.  I have the favourite organized in the order I prefer.  Prior to the update when I channel up and channel down, it would use my user organized sort.

With the new update, channel up and channel down will go through my favourites in Channel Number order not organized order regardless of how the channels are sorted.

I'm not sure how this will help.

• In TV viewing mode, the blue button will lock the channel.
• In channel view mode, the blue button organizes the favourites.
• In guide mode, the blue button will advance the viewing by 1 day.

None of these will fix the problem that will allow me to use the channel up and channel down buttons to navigate my favourites in my user organized order.

I don't think you understand the problem.  I know how to create and manually sort my favourite list.  The problem is that once the list is customized, when watching channels in my favourites category, if I use the CH+ / CH- buttons, it does not navigate through the channels in my sort order.  It navigates in the channel number order only.

Prior to the update it worked as expected and navigated according to my custom sort order.

Then there is a bug that will need to get fixed

Thanks for reporting
