more than 1TB (Tera Byte) storage space you 
may experience some problems in the formatting 
process.
Wait a little while before each plugging and

. 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 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.
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.

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.
