BuzzTV xpl2000

I just bought one from ebay (same guy ) I won a bid of 63.00 plus 12.00 shipping .........he sells them as buy now for 99.00 ..........He says he is in Canada but was using Amazon fullfilment Centers for a while in USA ....but now ships directly from Canada.........I have purchased at least 12 boxes from him and never had a problem....( one time he sent me the wrong item but quickly sent me the correct one and told me to keep the one he sent by mistake )
I believe he is from the company Buzztv .............

I've also noticed improved picture quality which is awesome.

Okay so you noticed it too! That kinda blurry, "low bitrate" feel (even when the video is higher bitrate). It drove me bonkers.

I'll have someone send me one soon for further testing. Hoping to let it update a few more times before I check er out again.

But that's lovely news.
 
My observation has been that with my provider, some channels are exceptional (TSN1/TSN2 Sportsnet, and a few others are high frame rate, no compression artifacts or crushed colormaps) while others range downwards. On the worse channels, dark background become blocky and coarse. In general, video performance has improved which I'm partly attributing to the service upgrading channels.

I've seen some recent weirdness - the last few evenings it started dropping WIFI after 5-10 minutes and required a reboot to reconnect - its not doing it today so I'm not sure what was going on.
 
Veronicas ......What did you ever do with that file I sent you ?



Aboslutuely nothing haha (sorry)! If you noticed, I haven't been posting a lot lately. Just wrapped up in personal/medical stuff for a while. I will get around to it, but if what the above user said is true (picture quality improved), I don't really feel the need to port it anymore. I was mostly wanting to follow development on one of my many s905 boxes until the bugs are fixed - then go buy another Buzz haha.



Can someone upload a photo or two of the "new EPG". Another user was saying it displays more than 5 items now?
I wish they would shrink the preview window and reorganize the top " info" area - I feel they could make the grid 30% larger if they rearranged it a bit. (But I haven't seen the updated EPG)

Thanks for your update. To test if the video quality is problematic, try using the exact same IPTV service with the newest "STBemu" on the Buzz box using the "Exo Player" The same channel/server would look 30-40% clearer than the Buzz app (previous firmware). You should be able to see very clearly if its any different!

Could be something with your device. I haven't come across any wifi issues on the boxes I've worked with so far. I have both my personal boxes on wifi connected through VPN and haven't had a single drop.
 
Symptoms of wifi problem are that it disconnects but continues to report the two (home) wifi networks are available and good strength. If I try to connect or switch to the alternate, it tries to connect then separates out offering to reconfigure proxies. If I reboot, it connects immediately. I occasionally use NordVPN but have not connected it recently - the problems have followed installing that VPN but that is likely a coincidence. The problem reminds me of some of the wifi connectivity issues that early Cyanogen Mod versions of Android had on several older tablets. I suspect a software problem - either caused by me or inherent.
 
can i get more info on this Aptoide? on my computer when i go to Aptoide.com and login with my google credentials i see different apps than the ones on the box, even though i am logging in with the same credentials i use on my computer.

thanks
 
You have to remember that many android apps are made for touch devices like Tablets and Phones...so not all Apps work as well on these types of boxes via remote control ...to fix some of those problems you would have to invest in an air-mouse remote control...
