Recording onto HD

[benjak]

Hi - I want to be able to record programmes from my TV but not to have to buy a set top box at the moment. Am I able to record straight to a hard disk and if so

A) what type of HD do I use

B)how do I format it to be compatible with the TV

C) Will the TV record and save the programmes in order and show some form of title/description as you get on a set top box.

How can I do this without as I said using a set top box at this point of time. Any help appreciated

Hi Tentpole,

Your TV (NU7020) e-manual says the TV should be able to record to hard drive.  To check out what you need to do it is easiest to review the e-manual by downloading it in .pdf format from the Samsung website.  You can then search this document on a computer.

Good luck

I have exactly the same TV with exactly the same issue. The TV falls below a basic level of functionality and that is unacceptable. Samsung need to sort this out.

Hi there, I am looking to get a HDD for my UE40ES8000, did you manage to source a solution to recording TV? Or if anyone has any ideas let me know, I've seen this on ebay https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F163858433551 

Any use? Thanks
