Emporium Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 From Live TV, Menu->PVR->PVR Options and last option in the settings is "Download storage". Select it and then select the external drive. Then downloads should go to external drive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emporium Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 First of all, I haven't checked the X5, but on The Classic (which should be the same), you can't select internal storage for VOD downloads. Only recordings can be set to internal. VOD downloads NEED an external storage device. For recordings, I use Solid Explorer (similar to ES file explorer) and all internal recordings are typically under "Internal Memory->Android->Media->BuzzXR4000.TV So you can copy them from there and put them anywhere else you want. Other option is to go into "BuzzTV Utilities"->"Network shares" and you can "enable network shares". Then from a PC, you can go to \\your.buzztvx5.ipaddress.here and you will see a share called "Internal" and you can then navigate to the same directory as mentioned above.

Dwight Bremer Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 I installed it, but got busy on real work for now. Thank You! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwight Bremer Posted November 16, 2023 Author Share Posted November 16, 2023 Got it all working . I was making it far to difficult. The X5 does download to internal storage so once network shares are turned on you can simply do what you will with the downloads using plain old Windows File Explorer. I have been copying and pasting the files into my Plex Server library. Next I may just add the X5 share Movie download directory as a Plex Library and see how that works instead of copy and paste. Thank You for the help! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
