I had noticed that before this update that the Caps on the KB worked in a better fashion then other KB's .. they stayed on till you turned off (shift). That was handy. This new update seems even better. I have tested it but not extensively. It works as outlined, as it seemed with the short test I did.

Cool beans

after some extensive testing, the Caps / Shift thing works exactly as outlined in the release notes.

Very nice.

The IR code change for pause/play works GREAT.... Thank you.
Just as a note.... After the update I had very little volume. I turned off the Max Volume always setting.... Increased the volume, and then turned on Max Volume, and all was good....

Thanks for the great work.

The update did not fix the server errors on my unit, any suggestions what to do next?

[nbs.]

Wait

[razor07]

I can do that, thank you

Have you PM'd allaboutbuzz with the details of the server you are using (server, sub type [xc/mac/m3u], and error message) ?

If they don't know the details about some specific server, they will not be able to look into it.

I have sent all information with tickets.

I have V20240830 installed on my P6 but Buzz 5 is still Version 9.0.915 .  When I am on Buzz 5 and try to update I get pop up "no updates available". How do I update to 5.0.538 or 5.0.539.
