i like it too, but they had limited functions so it was better to go towards newer remote.

Getting this U5 figured out... Working great, remote is still an issue... But I am living with it. Box is stable, one thing I had to do was to switch the resolution in the U5 settings from 1080p to 1080i 59.98hz. that took care of the freezing on all but a one or two channels that I watch. Right now, I am keeping this U5 box.

This is first time I heard that changing resolution from 1080p to 1080i fixes freezing issues, I will test that out thank you for this, I will forward this to buzztv team too.

@@xctechs I read it over on another forum regarding another box, I tried it and it worked. I have a 4K Sony, tried other resolutions and had issues. 1080i so far has been very stable. And I can tell know difference between it and the 1080p.

The remote sucks that comes with the U5. That circular button is fine if you have fingers the size of a two year old. Entering url's and such, what a PIA! Very easy to hit enter when not intending too. I ordered their other remote, with the air mouse, the one up from this hot mess, very annoying. The U5 box itself, so far I am still dialing it in. With a good IPTV it is pretty stable. I am getting a lot of warnings in regards to time shift errors using a Samsung external drive. They have issues there if you want to use this as a PVR, that is if the IPTV service you use offers it, mine does. More than likely I will need to do a hard reset and start all over again. I did not like this box at first, the construction is your typical plastic box, light as a feather, so you may need to secure it with something if you use stiffer cables, as it will flop around on you. As I said, the remote is a PIA. As soon as I figure out all of these time shift issues with the PVR, and a few other annoyances, we shall see... If I figure it out I will post back. Don't gift grandma or gramps one of these unless you want to play 24/7 tech support.

housing or case of the box were good, but making box bigger and not able to fit in gift box was another reason, I believe.

Has anyone else experance when your smart tv turns on by itself if its set to record a chanel or it records it like a studder keps repeating
