Another problem I’ve noticed is when using the multi-screen inside my IPTV service once I add the 4th ch all the screens freeze.
Well that’s funny. Today I “fired up” my new Firestick 4K Max and found some of the missing icons have mysteriously appeared. I still have a couple missing, but at least the ones I need are up and running.

Seems to be a very small number of ppl that try this and I know only 1 other and he also has this issue. Maybe contact Amazon help and see if this is a known issue.
There’s been a couple of updates so might try to do it manually. That’s what it took for me to get them all back.

All mine up too now.
Check your internal space under Applications. You are probably close to the max.
The side load issue for FS4KMax 2.0 of the non-appearing icon has been fixed … somehow. My Kodi icon “just appeared” the other day.

It’s brand new. Not the issue. It’s been fixed now and all working fine.

Since I now have the new FS4Kmax 2023 fully up and running, even my wife noticed a brighter, clearer picture on our 9 year old Samsung HD 3D curved TV.
With the IPTV service I have (not sure if I can name it) I still get some buffering and a lack of epg on several channels. What was strange is my older 4k had no epg until I got a new URL from the supplier. Then it worked again. I think it may be time for a newer router even though I use ethernet connections. Perhaps that will help. My internet is 40mbps, best I can get at the moment.

The buffering and EPG issues I am guessing are on the supplier side. Not all services are good about creating and maintaining a complete EPG. I ran into that many times before.

Like I said, best I can get at the moment. We don’t have a lot of choice in my area. They are installing fiber optics, but not available to me yet.
Ain’t that the truth!
I just got the Max and everything is crazy fast. I love it but I’m having one big problem. With Smarters Pro. It will not accept the URL for the service im using… It works fine on all my other firesticks and the cube but will not work on the max. Anyone have that problem and is there any fix for it?
Turn off VPN and try again.
Did that also still doesn’t work
Not sure what your problem is then? I have a new Max with 4 playlists on it no problems. but I don’t use Smarter’s anymore, Tivimate far superior.
A new question, On my older FS4k, set up on an older tv, I find that several channels seem to lock up and won’t load and others have no epg, whereas on the newer FS4k Max it all works better. The supplier sent me a new set of input codes, but that means I’ll loose all my “favorites” and I’ll have to redo the entire lot again. My question is; is there a way of saving the favorites. This is on Smarters Pro. My supplier has not responded to that question, so hoping someone here might know a trick or two. Thanks.
Just received Amazon email, $25 off new 4K max
