I think we will be removing the local IP method next update actually

As the web one works the same just better

It's  shame.  Some people prefer local options instead of being dependent on a server in the cloud.  At least the local version is not dependent on buzz keeping that remote server spinning a few years down the line.

Don't get me wrong, I like the UI on the remote server version, but at least the local one (even if you can only use it to add, and not edit) has no external dependencies.

Good afternoon,

There seems to be a bug on the Buzz e5 or classic with the backup player where it kicks you out of the Buzz 5 emulator and back to the home screen whenever it lands on a channel that says unknown stream or no video kicks in, note stream format setup as automatic.

I have played around with the stream type from automatic to ts or m3u. Some channels work better on the m3u while others work better on the ts stream format. Unfortunately, the kicking you out to the home screen is still prevalent but not as much as the automatic option.

the problem seems to have become more noticeable after the latest update.

I sideloaded tivimate to the box, and it recognized all the different stream types on the landed channels automatically with a much better and smother channel changes. Not once kicks out to the home screen.

Primary mode never kicks out to home screen but it won't recognize certain stream types.

This is happening on more than one end user using the e5 models and the classic models.

Can buzz can implement the different stream types into the primary player instead of changing the stream type and format.

thanks
