1. Recordings may become pixelated if the DTV video bit rate is too high for your USB device, especially during
recordings or Time Shift of high-definition material. If this occurs, try using a faster USB drive, or re-format it using
the High Speed format option. Note – this may make the drive un-readable in other devices.
2. The USB PVR function relies on the use of high-quality USB 2.0 drives, and as such may not be compatible with
some specific USB devices (eg. low-cost USB flash-drives with slower memory components, or USB drives with
any form of "smart" operation such as auto-backup, encryption, or similar functions). Also, some USB 3.0 drives
with USB 2.0 compatibility may not be suitable for use with this TV.
3. Due to file size limitations during recordings of DTV material onto the connected USB device, recordings over
approx 1 - 1.25 hours in length will be broken into separate files that can be played back as a semi-continuous file
using the DMP function (refer to page 27).
4. Any USB drives connected to this TV need to be low power versions (eg. portable types), or must be used with
an external power source to prevent overloading the USB socket on the TV.
10. Timeshift function
Prepare to record the program
This TV allows you to pause and record the currently watched digital TV program to a USB storage device,
and to resume viewing at the point where it was paused.
NOTE:
Formatting a USB 2.0 storage device will be needed. Save any original data on your USB device to another
device (eg.your PC) before formatting. All the data stored in the USB device will be erased after formatting.
USB Drive Storage Format
Follow the Format instructions on page 20 of this Manual to format the USB device and allocate the
amount of space for the Time Shift function.
NOTE:
The format process will take at least 2 minutes depending on the capacity of your USB device. Please do
not turn off the power or remove the USB device during formatting. The High Speed format option is
recommended for better HDTV recording results.
During formatting, a speed test will be done on the USB device. If it fails, it means the USB device may
not support the Time Shift function.
Record a paused DTV program to USB storage device
1. While in the DTV input source, check that your USB storage device is plugged into the USB port on
the side of your TV.
2. Select a DTV channel, then while receiving the channel press PAUSE to start the Time Shift function. The
TV program will be paused on screen; the Time Shift OSD appears and recording commences. Press
to playback the time-paused material.
3. Press STOP to stop the Time Shift function and stop recording program.
Pause
NOTE:
Please do not unplug the USB storage device when the Time Shift function is activated, as damage to the
recorded file or the USB storage device may occur. Approximately 4GB of memory buffers about 30-40
minutes of DTV material.
