BuzzTV xpl2000

just got back from vacay and noticed a buzz tv app updates that has fixed the endless 'handshaking' issue on a number of services. Confirmed all working beautifully now. Looks like approx 2 week turn around time for this fix since I reported the issues. Glad to see regular updates being rolled out to iron out the issues.

I set up a second device yesterday and after it did its update I noticed it was different than my first box.

New box- Running Build V001M901_20170304 has a market icon on main screen for Aptoide Market. When you go into server settings it has all the servers nicely listed along the left. No need to hold the green button down and No default server. When I go into the box settings and Apps the BuzzTV app is named just "BuzzTV".


Older box- Running Build V001M901_20170414 has no market icon on main screen for Aptoide Market. Only 4 icons along the top not 5. When you go into server settings it just comes up with mac address and Connect or Cancel. Now you need to hold the green button down to get to the server list. When I go into the box settings and Apps the BuzzTV app is named "BuzzTV V3".

I have tried several things to get the newer box to update to the newest build including a factory reset, manual update, unplugging, waiting an hour for auto update.

If others can report back on what build they are running and the quality of the picture in live TV if it is grainy or not like some others have reported it would be great.
 
They are not going to let their Firmware go out to the public........Dreamlink does not either...........or Avov ................................

That's what they would like you think ;)

Next time I get a box, I'll try to rip the IMG direct from the system. (No idea when that will be) I've done it on other Android devices, but not s905. But using ADB is the way I used to do it. Unsure if these boards have UART/serial contacts on them.

I haven't tried the new update (already sent back) so others will have to chime in regarding video quality.
 
So you used Android Debug Bridge for other android boxes.........but the board in the Buzztv will have to have an interface ...such as serial or other bus connection...............

Yes, there are indeed two versions of this box out there. The one with the market on home screen and straight forward server settings (not having to hold green button in order to input) is the ideal version as it receives updates first. I got in contact with their support team regarding this and was told that only they could perform the upgrade at their office. Looks to me like a lot of the ebay and amazon sellers seem to be selling that older version. Aside from server settings, update timing and market option on main screen I haven't noticed any other differences though.
 
I own 6 of these boxes and all are New box- Running Build V001M901_20170304 .............purchased from e-bay ....I believe the seller is actually someone from the Buzztv Company.................

How would we know which box is the new version?

Can someone tell me where to find the model number, is it on the bottom of the box or in settings menu? (buying a used box and would like to get the newer version of the box)

I agree!! The entire rant there was nothing specific about the device except for one small thing. Even that wasn't very descriptive!! Don't care about where you purchased it from and the issues you are having with the purchase!
 
There is only Buzz tv 1200 in iptv.so if don't want to understand ,if your problem.But this is very in poor in quality ,and picture,even in HD is poor. Sorry is the buzz 2000.
 
You must mean the Buzztv xpl 2000 ..it is the only Buzztv box made.....Sorry you have problems with it....but there are plenty of people here that have had these boxes and DON'T encounter the problems you are having...

Are you sure it's the only BuzzTV box..the Xpl is the only known branded buzztv box on the market currently.. Sounds like you got ripped off or misled on a purchase but I wish you luck
