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.
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 recording
feature.
For using recording function, you should connect a
USB disk or an external hard disk drive to the TV and
the connected USB disk should have at least 1 GB
capacity and should have 2.0 speed compatibility.
If the connected USB device does not support 2.0
speed, an error message will be displayed.
NOTE: Recorded programmes are saved into the
connected USB disk. If desired, you can store/copy recordings
on a computer; however, these files will not be available to
be played on a computer. You can play the recordings only
via your TV.
NOTE: Lip Sync delay may occur during the timeshifting.
Timeshifting and recording features will not function
in radio channels. 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, recording may fail and timeshifting feature
may not be available.
Recordings of HD programmes can occupy bigger
size on the USB disk depending on the broadcast’s
resolution. For this reason it is recommended to use
USB hard disk drives for recording HD programmes.
Do not plug out the USB/HDD during the recording.
This may harm the connected USB/HDD.
Multipartiton support is available. Maximum two
different partitions are supported. If the disk has
more than two partitions, a crash may occur. The
first partition of the USB disk is used for PVR ready
features. It also must be formatted as primary partition
to be used for PVR ready features.
Some stream packets may not be recorded because of
signal problems, so sometimes the video may freeze
during playback.
Record, Play, Pause, Display (for PlayListDialog) keys
cannot be used when teletext is ON. If a recording
starts from timer when teletext is ON, teletext is
automatically turned off. Also the teletext usage is
disabled when there is ongoing recording or playback.
