MichaelNapoli Posted February 7 Posted February 7 I noticed that, after the last update (Jan 2025), by going to Options =>Subtitles, when the Closed Caption is enabled the stream freezes after a few seconds. By setting it back to Disabled the stream almost immediately resumes. Has anyone experienced the same? Quote

Emporium Posted February 8 Posted February 8 I just tried on my E2, and no issue here. Just enabled subtitles (Closed Caption 1) and still works fine. What type of SUB you using (MAC or XC) ? if it is XC, what Stream type you using (Automatic, HLS/M3U8 or TS) ? If you have Timeshift enabled, just as a quick test, try to disable it. 1 Quote

In the Server Settings I have MAC. No Stream type is shown. After finally locating the Timeshift setting (Main Menu=>PVR=>PVR Options=>Timeshift) and setting it on Off the problem seems to be solved. Thank you! 2 Quote
RCNitro Posted February 19 Posted February 19 After receiving the new update I keep getting something called a time shift error. Any idea what may be causing this? Quote

Macman_ca Posted Tuesday at 01:55 AM Posted Tuesday at 01:55 AM How can I tell what box I have? My serial number BuzztvB53497XXXX under official firmware it says B5 V20241010. I keep telling it to check for updates, but I don’t see this new update avail. I can’t seem to find any other way to update it??? I’m having lots of issues with favourited programs not being updated to show all available episodes. I also get a lot of tv guide no information about or unable to start a past tv program. Very frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Quote

You have a B5, which is the entry level device of the 5 series. When you are on liveTV and you press the menu button, what version of BuzzTV are you running ? Should be 5.0.xxx. Are you sure the issues you have are NOT related to the service you are using ? Just to check for stuff like EPG and stuff, have you tried using another app as a test ? Something like STBEmu if you are using a MAC type sub, or IPTV Smarters if you are using XC type sub ? PS: if you need further help with the B5, please start a post in the B5 section, since your issue is not necessarily with this firmware update. Edited Tuesday at 02:31 AM by Emporium Quote

I do apologize I am fairly new to this whole iptv boxes. Under the live tv it says 5.0.946 01/03/2025. So not sure how to use other apps on thru this box. Ugh. Quote

Under server settings it shows two server options under the Mac server tab. I have tried the other, but the tv feed was low resolution. So have stayed on top the main one. Does that help? It’s really annoying. So much for favorites if I need t search it every time to get all the episodes to show. Lol. thank you for your help everyone. Really appreciate it. Quote
