BuzzTV/DS1: Products Not Displaying Correctly

Modified on Tue, 26 May at 11:19 AM

Device: BuzzTV / DS1 (Android)
Issue: The Budvue menu is showing wrong products, wrong prices, or missing items.

Use this article when: Your BuzzTV or DS1 screen is on and working, but the product information displayed is incorrect, outdated, or incomplete.

Do not use this article if:

  • The screen itself is not displaying (black, white, blue) — see the screen troubleshooting articles first.

  • This is a BudGuide tablet app — see BudGuide: Product Display Issues instead.


Steps

Step 1: Check Wi-Fi Connection

The most common cause of product display issues is a lost internet connection. Your screens need to be online to receive updates from your POS system.

  1. Press the blue Home button on your remote.

  2. If a countdown appears, select Cancel.

  3. Confirm the device shows a Wi-Fi connection.

If not connected, follow BuzzTV / DS1: Connect to Wi-Fi, then wait up to 20 minutes for screens to refresh.

Expected result: Correct product information appears after reconnecting and waiting.

Step 2: Check Product Data in Your POS

If Wi-Fi is connected but products still look wrong, the issue may be in the product data itself. In your POS system, check the following for any affected products:

  • Is the SKU or UPC entered correctly?

  • Is the product name, price, and category correct?

  • Is the product active and published in your POS?

If anything looks incorrect, update it in your POS and allow up to 20 minutes for your screens to sync.

Expected result: Corrected product information appears on screen after the POS sync.

Step 3: Use the Override Feature (Dashboard Access Required)

If specific products are still showing incorrect information, the Override feature on the Budvue Dashboard lets you fix it directly without waiting for a POS sync.

  1. Log in to the Budvue Dashboard at dashboard.budvue.com.

  2. Navigate to the Override section.

  3. Find the affected product and make the correction.

  4. Save your changes — the updated information should appear on screens shortly.

Expected result: Corrected information appears on screen after saving the override.


Resolution

If products are displaying correctly after any of the above steps, no further action is needed.

  • What looks wrong (wrong price, wrong description, missing product, etc.)
