Vibeline Posted January 4, 2025 Posted January 4, 2025 Hi Folks I just got this X5SS, connected to internet with LAN. (i did try wifi) same results I have an IPTV sub that I have been using for years. It plays the VOD/TV Series flawlessly using the Primary video player. Very nice picture, everything is quick. However, Live TV plays for 1 minute max before it freezes using the primary video player. the only way to get it going again is to close the buzztv 5 app then re-open it Live TV plays for 5 to 10 minutes before it freezes using the backup video player. If I go up 1 channel then back down 1 channel the video comes back on for 5-10 mins then freezes again. I have been using a buzztv xpl3000 for about 8 years, it plays the live tv and VOD fine using the same server. It is very slow and most apps dont work on it so i got a new box. Is there a way to add additional video players to the video player drop down menu in the buzztv5 app? I really want to like this box. But, If i'm being honest, I am pretty disappointed with it. $230 I was hoping it was gonna be plug-n-play. Thanks for the help! Cheers.... Quote
dishuser Posted January 4, 2025 Posted January 4, 2025 plug and play? how would that even be possible? Quote
Emporium Posted January 5, 2025 Posted January 5, 2025 What type of SUB ? MAC, XC, M3U ? In the BuzzTV 5 configuration settings, what do you have the stream type set to ? Did you by any chance enable the real time streaming or tunneled playback options ? Quote

MAC sub I set it up under the add MAC server (not under add XC or M3U) there is nowhere to change the stream type In the BuzzTV 5 configuration settings (that I can see) real time streaming or tunneled playback options are not enabled. Thank You Emporium Quote

The video/audio plays very well however, the channel lineup sucks and the guide only populates 10 or 15 percent. I guess I gotta find a new provider Thanks Folks! Quote
Emporium Posted January 5, 2025 Posted January 5, 2025 Have your reseller do a reset on your device on his panel before you give up. And I assume you are NOT trying to use both new and old box, back and forth ? Quote
