Video Stream Stops Every Minute For 15 Secs, Then Resumes - BuzzTV

[Jagstyles]

I've noticed that on almost every channel, the video stream stops every minute or two for 15-20 seconds, and then the video resumes where those 15-20 seconds are lost since it resumes in real time. Is this most likely the box, the IPTV server or something else?

Any feedback/suggestions would be great - relatively new to IPTV and just want to troubleshoot the issue.

same here I just shut tv off and went to bed

[Munstah]

assuming you guys are on same server?

It happens to me as well, but it resumes when I go into the popup guide via the "ok" button.

Doubt we are all on the same server. Could this be a problem with our boxes then? I'm not currently using the iptv server from any of the providers on this site. So curious what others are using and whether this is a bigger issue with our android box. I even tried changing the default player to the secondary or internal player but same results.

Interesting to find out the name of the these players but I find secondary works best for me, the channels change is fastest. Are they mx, vlc or something else?

I'm starting to think this is a problem with the box or player it uses. Why else would hitting the "OK" button and hitting it again get the stream to start playing again instantly? There seems to either be a buffering issue or something - doesn't sound like a problem with the IPTV server being used. Any others have suggestions/feedback?

The other problem I've been having the past few days is the Live TV app keeps booting me out of the app every time it starts up. I don't know if it's because I'm on a bad channel or something but it constantly boots me right out of the app. I have to keep trying and then be quick enough to change to another channel and then it's fine again.

Not sure what's triggering this issue.

Could be your internet connection.

Could be your internet connection.
No chance... All other streaming devices work flawlessly and I get 60MBps download speeds and all my devices are connected via cable (Ethernet)....

Click on the button with the three lines and go down to log out of app. What's selected there?

Not sure I understand by "What's selected there". When I select the button with the 3 lines and scroll to the bottom, there's an EXIT option but when you click that it takes you back to the home screen of the box.

It does show v1.5 (72) at the bottom of that menu. The update that was pushed to the box today didn't resolve the issue. My stream stops quite frequently and the error message that comes up on the screen states "Stream is not available. Try again later". I'm not convinced this is a server issue since as soon as I hit the OK button, the stream immediately starts up again with no delay. It's definitely not a connection issue on my end as I have a very strong ethernet connection.

Any ideas/suggestions?

I had that message today watching a baseball game on channel 432 ( Stream is not available ) but could not get the picture back.....other channels at the time were working fine.I believe that channel stopped working because of the service.......Have a Dreamlink T1 in the garage..........And could not get that channel to work either.....Yet the night before watching the same channel on the Buzztv box.and it worked fine for the whole 3 hours of the ball game...with not even a slight hickup.........So I doubt it was the box causing the problem..........I'm using NFPS service

Same here...And I doubt we are on the same server.
It became worse since today's update.

I better not accept update as yet.....

[Barry The Barber]

Wow I myself don't get those problems.
I accept the update then I did a hard reboot of the box and mine working good.
However I am on a different server than what's supported here.

Look in the support forums for iptv to see if there is any problems with the service offered here.
As myself I don't experience what you's are experiencing.

Has the EPG issues regarding the time been fixed?

Thought you owned a Buzztv Box ? Can you check if the EPG issue is fixed with the last update and report back...................?

Don't think I ever said I owned one.... How much do they cost and where can I buy them from?

LOL..... some of the guys are saying there are still some existing issues that haven't been fixed with the latest update. So one would be hesitant to update their box with this, so the issue with the EPG was a big one that we all wanted fixed.

Yes i see that

Stream still gets lost way too frequently on this box - I've tried on two different servers now... If someone has a reliable server where the stream doesn't stop/start all the time, please PM me, need to try a new server.

[gregg1110]

Jag that definitely isn't a problem with the buzztv box.....i have been watching for about 8 hour now and it hasn't buffered/skipped or anything. Its been flawless.

Are you using an IPTV Service promoted by this site.......................??

[gregg1110]

Actually i did run into this problem last night.....it was a bit shotty but worked flawlessly on the firestick.

[beadvised]

I'm seeing a lot of display glitching when I power on the box. Anyone else seen this?

[Maestro701]

When the ok button is pressed to bring up the guide it is kinda laggy, takes about a second for the guide to change for the corresponding channel.

[buzztest]

The stream stopping every minute or two for 10-15 secs is because the channel or service is freezing.
The current update 1.5 (72) it is designed to correct itself once the stream stops freezing.
When a channel freezes it keeps checking if it is fixed about every 5 secs

This would be why other users are reporting it running flawless and some of you are having issues, every service is different and therefore has its problems from time to time.
