  • Hello all I am experiencing glitches and freezes playing catch up content from XC API provider. Same provider catch up content works with no issues using TiviMate. Any input appreciated.

  • I have the same problem. For some programs it skips a couple of programs and moves to a completely different time then the program that I want to view was.

    This feels very buggy.

    Sometimes it goes well, but when I try to skip a minute it shifts again a couple of hours…

  • Now, for anyone with freezes, looping with live tv etc...

    I now have limited bandwidth on switchport of z11 to 100000 kbps (100Mb) as i was experiencing same with a kamai box on a fiber connection, for now it stays stable on z11... Also i enabled stormcontrol on max 100000 (100Mb) to eliminate an overflow on multicast, broadcast/ unicast packets.... Will let now in a while if it keeps this way...

    ***update***

    One loop past hours...

    I reduced some more on stormcontrol, now on 50000 kbps

  • I am also experiencing some trouble using timeshift.

    I have a brand new, updated, Z11 Pro Max, and I also feel the occasional "jump/freeze/glitches" using cloud timeshift.


    I have my Formuler connected via a new ethernet cat. 8 quality cable, and a 1GB/400MB internet bandwidth...


    I use a dedicated P2P server from NordVpn, which has never troubled me, so I don't believe that is the sourcve of these problems, since I had previously a Formuler CC, and it worked great on that device.


    Anybody else feeling these issues even after the latest update?

  • This is a very important aspect of the features Formuler provides, and I believe there's a lot of loyal Formuler clients who think the amazing Formuler development team should prioritize in the next software updates.

    It significantly affects the whole MTVO experience, and the very reason why so many people buy Formuler devices...

  • Currently using Z11 Pro Max with up to date firmware. I have several catchup channels with my iptv but selecting cloudtime on any of them does not work. I just receive "Timeshift error Can't play this video" I also have TiviMate installed on this device and cloud shift works on all channels. I have force stopped MyTv3, cleared cache and even uninstalled MyTvonline with no success. Any solution?

  • Made some headway. I discovered the external drive is not necessary for cloudshift; works fine with no external drive attached. Also found that cloud time shift only works on catchup channels that have information populated in the epg. Some of my catchup channels (most) do not have epg info. The ones that do, work well. Thanks for the help.:OK_hand:
