How Do I Record With My TV's PVR?

Preparing To Use PVR

To use the PVR function you must first connect either a USB stick (of up to 32GB) or an externally powered hard drive (of up to 2TB) to the USB port of the TV and follow the steps below to format it.

Please note that we recommend the use of an externally-powered 2TB or less USB 2.0 storage device.

We also recommend the use of Seagate or LaCie branded drives, as there can be incompatibility issues when using a WD (Western Digital) drive.

To format your USB drive, please follow the instructions below:

Please note: Formatting will remove all data from the USB. We recommend backing up any important data first.

1. Press the MENU Button and select the CHANNEL menu.

2. Scroll down to PVR File System, and press OK.

3. Scroll down to Format, and press OK.

Your USB drive will now format, and be ready for recording.
