How To PAUSE & RECORD Live TV
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 сен 2016
- Hi, this video shows you how to record and pause live television. You can use a USB Flash Drive or a external hard drive (HDD). A really cheap option is to recycle an old laptop hard drive and buy a HDD caddy for £3. You can pause Live TV, Rewind and Record Live TV and also do series recording via your EPG (Electronic Programme guide). Alot of televisions have this feature and I think it is very useful.
Many thanks Vince

Thank you, that tutorial was the best I have watched. You made it all so clear. I had been struggling to know what to buy to record from my Samsung Smart TV which is wall mounted.

Thanks for taking the time and effort to make this video.
explained beautifully. thanks!
Awesome. Never knew I could do this. Thanks Vince!
Cheers Ian.
If you use a powered hub you can use the more powerful units.

Very clear instructions..some talk so fast I don’t understand them. I’m now off to Amazon to get my usb sticks. Thanks
I want to record my live video feed from a Fpv camera I use to fly my drones with , is there a way to record whatever my tv screen is viewing ?
You are very clever. Thank you for this video. It has helped me so much.

could you provide me a link for the items that you used so I can buy the same one please.
Can you watch something from another source such as netflix and still record from freeview play?
Great help after year of buying the tv i know now how to record well i never really did try but it did help i did not know i had hhd usb. great help.
😃
Is it possible to pause and rewind using this method. But not from a sky or freeview box. But from an external source like a camera plugged into the HDMI or RCA??
The reason the hard drive is a different size is it is likely that there is a hidden partition on the drive, likely for restoration of Windows. If you use disk management software or Linux you should be able to fully flatten it and format fully.
If USBs are not reporting correct size again maybe hidden partitions or if new, possibly not a genuine stick.
Hi Vince, I'm using usb stick on my smart tv..it records fine but says I cant use it for pause..any ideas please?
I am watching Freesat on an LG smart tv. I have pause & play button on my remote but it only seems to work on live TV that's streamed via programmes like BBC iPlayer or ITV Hub. When I try to use on Freesat Live it says I need to connect USB storage. I am unsure that buying a USB stick will work. I have also seen a record facility on the TV but do not recall when or where. Would appreciate your advice please. Tricia
What do you format itcss SATA of fat32?
Can you upload how to enable audio description in lionsgate play?
Usb flash drives like you showed didnt work for me ,in my webOS lg tv :( so i bought a 1 TB western digital HDD , i hope will work with it
I've never tried this with any TV's, might give it a try with mine. Cheers Vince

Thank you for this video, but after record will I be able to watch on PC?
My LG tv has the record time shift function but when I put in 4 gb stick the tv tries to verify the stick and then comes back with ‘this storage device cannot be used for live playback’ any ideas what I’m doing wrong?
Great video as always very easy to follow.
Legend knows how to do everything 🙏
mate my samsung is is new but when I plug in USB to HDD nothing formats... and when I try press record nothing happens... why could this be?
Hi Vince ...... great videos. Pertaining to the video above, Is the RECORD function controlled in the hand held or the TV itself. On my Control is say this function not available. The record button is there.
You have to use the on-screen functionality to record.
Many thanks for this clear and helpful video. I have a recent 65" LG TV with two USB ports and I have tried a brand new 128gb USB stick in both (used the TV to format it) but when I try to pause there is the message that "this storage device cannot be used for live playback. Select a different device". I tried a different stick and the same problem persists. What could I be doing wrong?
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution ?...Many thanks
@@drew6536 Yes, I got the TV to format the USB memory stick using the menu functions. It worked then to record and playback programmes, but will not let me pause live TV.
Hi mate, I'd be interested to know which sort of TV service you use, and what sort of stuff you tend to watch? I've networked all my house project with CAT6 and it's nearly time to decide on what to go for.
I've always grown up with SKY, especially for the football, but I refuse to pay the prices anymore. Was looking into either NOWTV or AppleTV, any thoughts?
Cheers.
Hi, I get Virginmedia TV as part of the package but I rarely use it.
I haven't tried Apple TV but I definitely wouldn't go for Now TV. I have had it on 2 occasions, once for a year when it 1st came out and then recently for a few months when I got it free with my phone contract. Now TV isn't compatible with a lot of equipment and once you have it for a few months and caught up with the movies then you tend to not watch it much and I think it is expensive for what you get. I haven't tried out the sports or entertainment on it so that may suit you better.
Personally I like Netflix on the top package with the ultra HD as it is compatible with everything I have tried and also normal HD Freeview. If you were organised and planned the week ahead on a TV guide you can record a lot of good stuff on Freeview to then watch back at a later stage and it doesn't cost anything. I also tend to watch more and more RUclips videos.
Cheers.
Can you do this with now TV ?
Excellent video! I was trying to record on my Samsung smart tv but didn't realise I needed a usb hard drive to record straight from my tv. Does this hard drive still record if your watching something from a sky box as I'm running out of space on my box?
I have the same question if so please which usb should I buy to record tv channals
All what we are recording on an external HDD will be able to open only on tv ,if we are connect the hdd on a pc will not be able to see what is record one .Is any way to have acces on pc of what we are record ?Thank you for the beautifull share .
Hi, I can only view it on the TV that I recorded it on. I don't know if it is possible to view it on the PC.
Many thanks Vince
My Mate VINCE Unfortunately it is not possible to view it on any other device

Insert usb stick in TV. Press the record button.

How can I get my volume back off my TV.
Can anyone tell me how to record on USB HDD in Samsung UE43NU7472? No "record" button in my remote and no word about recording in the manual :(

You can use the timeshift function without a record button or at least on Freesat you can if not other services, i have a Samsung tv with a Samsung remote without a record button. I put a usb flash drive into the usb camera socket on the back of the tv purely because it was spare, then i got the option to select all content or videos and such, i pressed all content then it said No stored files found because it was an empty usb i then pressed the source button on the remote to go back to the tv channels, then i pressed the pause button on the remote and it said Not Available.
So thinkng about the format possibility i went into the tv guide, selected a program in the future about half an hour, it gave me the schedule recording option which i pressed and the format options came up so i pressed that. When the usb had finished formatting i got a report of The recording and Timeshift functions are now available. So i went back to the live tv and pressed the pause button and it paused the live tv with rewind, fast forward and the stop button which returns the picture to actual time. Ok i realise this video is nearly four years old and you've probably sussed the info i just gave out by now but it's an active video so i hope it helps someone.

wait. Just by putting a usb stick you can record. Im probably saying a stupid question or just misunderstood.
How 'bout fast forwarding live TV?
MELEKH HA OLAM lol
Soon
See we tried that with our vizio and it wouldn't let me rewind the local news when I tried had that little USB inserted in the roku and it worked I'm thinking it's the stupid TV remote supplied by vizio maybe idk..thanks for the info anyway I'll try again later😘

😃

where can I get this device?
good question I wanna know too
🧤
It says 8 gigabytes on the flash drive
🕶
Hahaha Nice Joke Mate....dirty trick but funny as hell
hello guyz my cannel gonna start in a few days
it just says “not available”
Same, I looked at the manual and it said that it is unavailable in the USA or in Canada. I think all you have to do is change your region. But I don't know exactly how to do that.
The other 30GB on your hdd is probably a hidden partition used for system recovery due to it being originally used in a laptop. To get the full 80GB download the minitool partition free wizard tool. Before loading it connect ur hdd to computer, and then once loaded ull see the drive with 1 partition being 50GB and the other 30GB. Delete both partitions and then create one new one and ull now have the full 80GB back to use as ur pvr drive.

Excellent, thanks for that. I will try it out. Thanks for sharing :-)
It worked, I now have 74.53GB. Thanks again:-)
No problem, glad to hear it worked for you.

Q
Giga bit?
Just for future reference, GigaBits and GigaBytes are two different things. When talking about storage mediums you'd use Gigabytes, Megabytes, Kilobytes.
Bits are used when talking about data transfer from the internet and locally over a network. A Gigabit is actually vastly different in size to a Gigabyte.
Great video though :)
www.atlantic.net/blog/do-you-know-the-difference-between-a-gigabit-and-a-gigabyte/
Thanks Danny, I always get them mixed up!!!!!!!!! So the hard drives I used are 80GBps and 120GBps (capital B) which is Gigabytes and my Internet speed with Virginmedia is 70Mbps (small p Not Capital P) so it is Megabits. I need to retain this information but it just seems to constantly vanish from my memory :-)
Almost right Vince. When talking about hard drives or any sort of storage, even RAM its GB as in 500GB (500 Gigabytes) or 1TB (One Terabyte). Just remove the ps from the end.
You're right on the internet side though for most cases.
When the internet's concerned:
Mbps means megabits per second. Mb is used for download and upload speed.
MBps stands for megabytes per second. MB is used for file size.
It is easy to mix them up, and I apologise if I come across as a bit of a stickler pointing this out.
Not at all Danny, I appreciate the info. Makes complete sense now.
Cheers Vince.

giga BYTE. not the same as gigabit. (8 x bigger)
It is not gigibit it is gigabyte there are 8 gigibits in a gigabyte
You only need a 16GB you can only save up to 90 mins on a lot of TVs
On Roku 16gb is all you need ...32gb is total max and anything more is a waste of money..It only records90 mins max and only works on Antenna tv ....
Set top box hmm I'm in USA we call them cable box
8 bits = 1 byte
Not with the Sony 950G you can't. It WILL NOT record OTA live broadcast TV to an external USB-HDD. According to Sony,, that feature is "not supported". Unfortunately, I had already bought the damned thing before finding that out. Other Sony Bravia Android TV's WILL so record, and NO REVIEW I saw pre-purchase mentioned the lack of that capability.

It's gigabyte not gigabit
Watched this whole video only to find out this doesn’t work on American TVs
It's not gigabit, it's gigabyte!
