Freeview and Saorview only

The USB Record/PVR function is only available in Freeview/Saorview mode and only when used in

conjunction with a compatible USB memory stick or USB hard drive. The benefits of this are as follows:

  • Pause live TV and then playback, rewind and fast forward (up to live TV).
  • One button record, if you decide you want to record the current programme.
  • Easy recording from the 7 Day TV Guide.

Due to the nature of the product, it is necessary to use a high-speed USB memory stick (as the TV reads

from and writes to the memory stick at the same time, some memory sticks may not be suitable).

You can purchase high speed memory sticks from some computer stores, alternatively, we have a selection

of tested and compatible memory sticks available to purchase directly from the Helpline/website.

Note: If channels are moved or deleted, then the USB Record/PVR will not function correctly.
Note: This television contains one TV tuner, therefore it can only record the channel you are watching or record one channel while the television is in standby mode.
Note: USB Record/PVR record function is only available in Digital/Freeview TV mode. Due to copyright laws and illegal copying/recording it is not possible to record to/from any other input/output source.
