recording will not be
available with NTFS formatted disks.
While formatting USB hard drives which have
more than 1TB (Tera Byte) storage space you may
experience some problems in the formatting process.
Wait a little while before each plugging and unplugging
as the player may still be reading files. Failure to do
so may cause physical damage to the USB player
and the USB device itself. Do not pull out your drive
while playing a file.
You can use USB hubs with your TV’s USB inputs.
External power supplied USB hubs are recommended
in such a case.
It is recommended to use the TV’s USB input(s)
directly, if you are going to connect a USB hard disk.
Note: When viewing image files the Media Browser
menu
can only display 1000 image files stored on the connected
USB device.
Recording a Programme
IMPORTANT:
When using a new USB hard disk
drive, it is recommended that you first format the disk
using your TV’s
Format Disk
option in the
Media
Browser>Settings>Recording Settings

To record a programme, you should first connect a
USB disk to your TV while the TV is switched off. You
should then switch on the TV to enable the recording
feature.
To use recording your USB drive should have 2 GB
free space and be USB 2.0 compatible. For the USB
inputs on the side of the TV, USB 3.0 compatible
devices can be used too. If the USB drive is not
compatible an error message will be displayed.
To record long duration programmes such as movies,
it is recommended to use USB Hard disk drives
(HDD’s).
Recorded programmes are saved into the connected
USB disk. If desired, you can store/copy recordings
onto a computer; however, these files will not be
available to be played on a computer. You can play
the recordings only via your TV.
Lip Sync delay may occur during the timeshifting.
Radio record is supported. The TV can record
programmes up to ten hours.
Recorded programmes are split into 4GB partitions.
If the writing speed of the connected USB disk is not
sufficient, the recording may fail and the timeshifting
feature may not be available.
It is recommended to use USB hard disk drives for
recording HD programmes.
Do not pull out the USB/HDD during a recording. This
may harm the connected USB/HDD.
If the AC cord is unplugged while there is an active
USB-recording timer setting, it will be cancelled.
Multipartition support is available. A maximum of two
different partitions are supported. The first partition of
the USB disk is used for PVR ready features. It also
must be formatted as the primary partition to be used
for the PVR ready features.
Some stream packets may not be recorded because
of signal problems, as a result sometimes videos may
freeze during playback.
Record, Play, Pause, Display (for PlayListDialog) keys
can not be used when teletext is on. If a recording starts
from timer when teletext is on, teletext is automatically
turned off. Also teletext usage is disabled when there
