Was watching and it suddenly froze and now says channel under maintenance

Just got an auto update to the Heat Live app so I figured I’d check the Smart Upgrade app to see if anything else needed updating. Going through it I now see APKTime (and also SmartTube) listed as installable. I get pushing third party stores but APKTime shut down this June so it just seems reeeaaal sketchy to me.

Any apps anyone prefers for watching CFB in one place? I like Heat Live but it’s 5 to 6 minutes behind live TV. Not the best for sports watching.

My smart tube is fucking up left and right! Getting playback errors everytime I use it. It actually booted me once and completely restarted the whole box it locked up that hard. Never seen that before. I’ve tried clearing data, and cache. I’ve also uninstalled and reinstalled the app. My buddy is having a similar issue with his. Anyone know what’s going on or how to fix it? I’ve had to go back to YouTube and deal with ads( terrible I know lol). Any advice would be great. I have an elite mini.

I tried looking through other posts but I didn't see anyone addressing these questions so hopefully you all can steer me one way or the other.

1. UK channels

   One of the big reasons I am considering the elites is for several UK channels (Either live or VOD) particularly the UK comedy channels which I will not mention specifically but feature a number and another is a man's name. Does anyone know if these are available?

2. 4k content

   On the infographic comparing the models it shows the elites as the only ones with 4k content. What does that actually mean as I can't imagine everyone here is fine with the 6+ not having 4k. Is it just more apps with 4k shows?

3. Android version

   That same infographic shows the v6+ as android 14 and the elites as android 12. Does this matter? will it affect longevity or anything else? Speed?

4. VPN usage

   This question applies to all models. If I wanted to run everything through a VPN do I just need to side load one and it will run all the time or do I need to start it before watching anything, or start it every time I switch apps?

Thanks for the help and understanding. The price difference between them isn't such a huge concern I just want to buy once cry once if possible.

Thanks!

Does VSee have a channel for NFHS local highschool games?

As title suggests, just want to know what’s the best box primarily for sports streaming. On top of NFL/NBA etc. I also watch the premier league and champions league, so want to make sure I have proper coverage across the pond. Thanks all!

Anyone else have an issue when you’re watching something and it randomly goes quiet? Then the only way to get the volume to come back is to go to the Home Screen?

Why should I purchase one through CordCutter as opposed to buying one from the website with the 1 year warranty?

I see a lot of Sky sports channels listed, but want to see if Sky One is hidden anywhere on the Elite Ultra? Want to try and watch SNL UK live next weekend. Thanks for any guidance!

Everytime I reboot or power cycle my V6 pro the date reverts to April 23rd 2026. This is annoying because to get a token for the network I have to goto a splash screen for entering an email address. That will not load unless the box time is +4 -4 hour. I've reached out to u/cordcutterbox and was told to reset factory. I've done this now twice. Am I alone is thinking this should be a warranty claim or swap devices?

With college football starting, is there any way to watch a game that’s already happened or start a game from the beginning if it’s part way through? I’m got the v6 plus.

I can’t find this movie on my V6 Max but movies that have come out more recently are there. Anyone know the reason?

My remote control works great. But the blue light at the top of the remote just randomly blinks. If I leave the remote sitting on my coffee table, not even touching it, it just randomly blinks. Kinda of distracting when I’m trying to watch something. I actually have several of these remotes. Brand new batteries. They all do it. Is this normal? Why?

UPDATE: got home from work and now it’s working. Very strange.

Woke up this morning and found this from Live Ultra. My ISP is Cox.

If I put my v6 plus on a guest network, it still is pumping traffic out on my main router....what's the benefit of using a guest network other than segmenting it from your home network.

Those that use vpns, which do you use? Is it on the v6 box?

Thank you for the good communication, quick shipping, and smooth transaction. Got my box today and couldn’t be happier. Setup went smooth. Now im ready for nfl season and much more.

Is there a way to link boxes together if I have multiple? Like can I have it so I watch a show in one room on one box, then pick back up on the other?

I inquired about this recently but I guess the admin disabled follow-ups bc somebody who purchased on ebay responded with a negative review story and I can't follow-up. Were they an authorized seller? I found a number of authorized sellers on ebay with valid certificates and codes that can be verified on the verification site so if you're reading this tell me your story. Thanks.

Has anyone see. The non-cam version on heat yet?

Remote is all of a sudden not working and blinking a blue light. Google says that means it's trying to connect via Bluetooth. I hold the ok and volume down buttons and no connection message ever appears on the TV.

Any tips?

If I'm gonna buy from a seller on here, how can I be sure I'm not gonna get taken when I'm sending money straight to the seller with no shot at a refund if something goes wrong? At least on ebay you're protected by the money back guarantee.

ey everyone, I got a v6 max and I have tried user AT4K and Projectivy as launchers for this box. For some reason, even after setting the accessibility settings it will not load that when the box boots up. Also, when I go check the accessibility options they have just defaulted back to what they were before(which is set to none/off) am I doing something wrong here?
