new wicked iptv server is up for testing

[sdeens2019]

Good advice to run VOD in “backup” instead of primary player to help synchronize audio in these BuzzTV boxes,
but any opinions on which is the best of the external players?

I use VLC sometimes, but it does not work with some of our VOD movies and gets stuck with spinning orange triangle

Also, I keep Stream Format in: AUTO because some services like PlutoTV and others will only work in HLS otherwise black video

PS

Thanks Sat9182 for the complete update. Very thorough explanation

The wise men are always cheap. Lol
Asking for freetv and pay for nothing.

Give me a break.

yea its weird because when we lose the channel now, if you go to menu/settings/account info its blank, like we lost communication with the server, but no message indicating loss of stream. This is a new symptom noticed recently where account info is not traceable.

Confirmed here as well

Yes, I saw it a few days ago but sometimes during a freeze the saccount info is still there. Other times a message pops up no stream avail. Different scenerios at different times.

For the last 3 years the system has gone down (3 days 3 years ago) at about the same time. Its always a different problem but never their fault. The problem could be over selling and not upgrading the servers to cover. Im not impressed.
