Notes on recording and USB functions
- Information on the recording format: Recording is done in MPEG-TS
format which allows recording in HD quality identical to the signal
received. To play your recordings on another multimedia device, it may
be necessary to install a compatible video codec.
- If you want to record a film or a long program, use a memory stick of
larger capacity (eg. 4GB). If you want to save several films, opt for
external hard drives of large capacity.
- The loading time of the USB device is too long: When you insert a USB
support, the loading time can sometimes be a minute or more. This
depends on the size of your support, the number of files on it and above
all, the complexity of its directories. You can reduce loading time by
avoiding the use of multiple sub- directories in your USB disk. Avoid
such multiple-subdirectories like
"Directory/Subdirectory/Sub-subdirectory/...." and store files in a single
simple directory.
USB Device Recognition Problems
- After connecting your USB device to the unit, you may need to turn the
device on before it can be detected.
- This unit does not support direct USB connection with computer. It is
necessary for you to transfer your data/files on a USB stick or MP3
player.
- If you are using an external hard drive to be connected via USB, you
must connect the hard drive simultaneously with a power source and
with the unit. If you are using a portable video player with hard drive, you
must make sure that the internal battery is fully charged.
- Verify that the file system of your USB device is properly formatted in
FAT 32. USB media formatted in NTFS is not compatible with this unit.
Please refer to the manual of your USB device to ensure that formatting
is possible without altering its functionality.
- The USB device used may not be fully compatible with USB 2.0. In this
case, try a different USB stick in order to identify the problem.
Recording Quality
- If your recording is shaky or choppy the data stream to be recorded is
very important. Certain USB sticks, even some new USB 2.0 ones, do
not allow sufficient data transfer rate. If this happens, try with a newer
USB device or with an external hard drive. With external hard drives,
data transfer rate is sufficiently high and this problem should be solved.
