English   - 12 -

IMPORTANT! Back up the files on your storage devices 

before connecting them to the TV. Manufacturer will 

not be responsible for any file damage or data loss. 

Certain types of USB devices (e.g. MP3 Players) 

or USB hard disk drives/memory sticks may not be 

compatible with this TV. The TV supports FAT32 

and NTFS disk formatting but

 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.

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 menu.

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.

When the TV is turned on, it is a random choice which 

connected USB drive will be picked out by the TV to 

be the PVR drive.

To use recording your USB drive should have 2 GB 

free space and be USB 2.0 compatible. 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 USB Recording ready 

features. It also must be formatted as the primary 

partition to be used for the USB Recording 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 

is an ongoing recording or playback.
