1. Video may become pixelated if the video bit rate is too high for your USB drive,
especially during recordings of high-definition material. If this occurs, try using a faster USB
drive, or re-format it using the High Speed Format option. Note:This may make the drive
un-readable in other USB devices.
2. The USB PVR function relies on the use of high quality USB 2.0 drives, and as such may
not be compatible with some specific USB devices, for example, low-cost USB flash-drives
with slower memory components, and some USB 3.0 flash-drives (operating in USB 2.0
mode) may not be compatible with this TV. Also, USB hard-drives need to be low power
versions (eg. portable types), or must be used with an external power source to prevent
overloading the USB socket on the TV.

This TV allows you to pause and record the currently watched digital TV program to a USB
storage device, and to resume viewing at the point where it was paused.

USB device before formatting. All the data stored in the USB device will be erased after
formatting.
