Kray Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 Hi guys, This is my first venture into the IPTV realm. I would like to purchase a box but am confused with the offerings and differences. I am looking at the following: XRS4500 XRS4500 2022 XRS4500 MAX Any help and insight would be much appreciated. Thanks. Quote

Thanks. Do you want to record Live TV programs or record VOD? If you do out of the 3 you have listed I would go with the XRS4500 Max Quote
Emporium Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 Don't know where you are seeing all these, but as far as I know there are 3 models of the 4500. The XR4500, XRS4500 and XRS4500 MAX. https://buzztv.com/site/xr-4500/ https://buzztv.com/site/xrs-4500/ https://buzztv.com/site/xrs-4500-max/ The main difference is the internal memory and onboard storage. Other than that, they are the same. I would say the xrs4500 is probably the best suited for most people (would be quicker than the xr4500 since it has 4GB of internal memory vs 2 on the basic xr4500). If the xrs4500 max is not much more, you do get double the internal storage, but if planning to use it for recordings, then a USB stick could also be used for that, if you decide to record later. 3 Quote

I think the XRS4500 2022 comes with the new BT-300 remote instead of the BT-100 remote, that is the only difference I know of. Quote

You will be very happy with it, for the difference in price between the XRS4500 and the XRS4500 Max I think you made a very good choice ! Since I upgraded mine from the Buzz 4 operating system to Buzz 5 operating system I can record anything even with the box turned off. The box will wake up and record what I have scheduled to record. With the XRS4500 Max and its 128GB storage you will be able to record hundreds of programs! Quote

I just checked Amazon and they don't have that price now. Quote
Bud Atkinson Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 I signed up for a credit card and they give 60.00 off the price.. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B093TVHF6H?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details 1 Quote
