I created a Wish List Thread for all our wishes

Wish List MyTVOnline

Thank you.... will be interested in seeing the responses based on past experience.

Now, back to dreaming....

Going to bed now so I can start dreaming right away !

Same thing here.....

SAM ?

Hi,

Curious if the bug that forced us to select 1080P in the TV app in order to use PVR functions still exists?

I have not tested it in a while.... have not been using the box due to the EPG issues that appear to be fixed now.

Any good news?

Thanks!

App is very slow after update.... not sure if it’s still the EPG but just annoying to have the box freeze up while changing channels

Hi Everyone,

Just so I understand - you are entering the portal address provided by your provider in to Xtreme codes, then using the Xtreme code URL for your Formuler box?

This allows you to customize the channel listing and EPG?

Sounds great if this works!!!

Thanks!

Are you using the official IR extender?

Post a picture of the extender you are using.

Wondering if anyone else with the same issue could post a pic? I’m traveling so I won’t be able to get at this for a while.

Thanks!

There is no LED in the IR Extension module.

The LED on the box will flash when a command is received from the RCU.

Are you saying the IR extension cable is not receiving the signal from the RCU?

yes, rcu not receiving a signal for me....

Interesting that I see this post because I have the same problem!

There is a new beta version?

Thanks mate, appreciate the update.

This is new, the MyTVOnline app takes 3-5 minutes to open now.... any thoughts?

Cool, thanks. I escalated through my reseller.... maybe the Formuler peeps can chat with then for us.

Thanks man, so still an issue for you? Also, have you let the Vaders peeps know?

Hey Guys,

I use Vaders and find that several channels (mainly in the US category) won’t tune in even though they will work with ProgTV on the same box.

Anyone else having the same issue?

Seems like it might be a decoder/player issue

Thanks!

Curious... could/would this work differently with a M3U or Xtreme code configuration?

Thought that I was the only one who couldn’t navigate groups in the epg.

Gents, I believe they are close, at least it appears so from the last beta version.

It’s been a bit of a journey to get here so I’m good with a bit more of a wait - and they did say sometime in March when they started so there is time left.

That worked, thank you.

Assume this is something that will be fixed in the future?

Hi,

Question for you...

Should I be able to pause and rewind live channels? I thought I could but it’s not working today. Is there something to setup?

I have a 300GB drive installed on the USB port.

thanks,

Not sure if it will make a difference but Vaders is currently having EPG problems. Most of the UK section is down

Yep - Vaders is having some growing pains....

@SAM Lookin good!

Assume there is a delay on start-up to build a cache, then some sort of refresh timeline.... which are both acceptable to have a working EPG!

Great news.

I’m in.

Hi,

Wondering if it is possible to sort channels in alphabetical order?

thanks!

SAM .... Just a thought, customer service does not usually include telling your customers to be quiet and then threatening to take away their ability to share their comments.

I see feedback regarding the EPG showing up sites like Facebook and Amazon now... it's too bad.

Enjoy your boxes peeps, I'm looking forward to that EPG update!!!

@SAM .... I’m not sure I understand your response if I consider the content of the posts that started this thread and the amount of time passed that Formuler has known about the EPG bug.

Let’s just get it fixed mate, the next response will hopefully be a firm date, or an announcement that things are fixed.

@SAM can we ask to be part of the beta test?

Not too happy with the time line, and sad to see that it practically took a mutiny to get a response...... BUT, at least we have something now.

Gonna box this thing up, tell my friends to hold off on buying one and wait till March.

Thanks to everyone who posted.... @SAM, peace dude. thanks for following up, next time a faster follow-up would avoid the upset customers.

ProgTV, here I come!!

@SAM - might be worth sharing this thread with your developers and bosses....

@SAM? ‍♂️

Too funny, an Admin who defends themselves rather than trying to provide customer service as an employee of Fomuler. Wonder how long that would last in the real world as sales drop off.

Either way - all the excuses around how hard this fix is are quite pathetic if free apps like ProgTV and Perfect Player have already figured this out.

The supplier I bought from no longer offers the Z7+ because of the complaints, and others I reached out to are saying the same.

Keep posting here peeps, let’s get this sorted out as a priority.

✌

@SAM @anmado

Your thoughts please?

Agreed - If you’re interested in knowing the answer please post here...

For the Fomuler folks..... seriously, how about answer? I wonder how many sales you are losing as Z7+ users won’t bother to recommend your products to anyone else due to the EPG problems.

Can’t be rocket science, just fix it - or give us some sort of response!!!

Not sure that this has to do with my provider.

I use ProgTV, GSE, and Perfect Player - all of the EPGs work perfectly on cheap boxes.

The only time I see a slow EPG is with my new Formuler box.

Agreed - same here.

quite disappointing

I can’t believe that the Slow EPG was not addressed in this version....

EPG is such a basic feature that works fine ona $30 box with a free app, it’s shocking that a premium box like the Z7+ can’t get it right.

Ok, it really does need to be addressed though.

The EPG is directly related to the PVR functions of this box.... if they are slow or don’t work then I am better off using a cheap Android box with Perfect Player.

I think the EPG is just loading too much data, too often, and not pre-loading when possible.

So, pre-load EPG data once a day and cache it, also - have a setting to limit the number of days worth of data loaded as an optional item.

Any news as to when the slow EPG will be corrected?

Great box but the EPG is useless, also the usability of opening the grid from the channel list is horrible.

Thanks!
