restore only not backup you get no choice on backup so it goes to internal automatically

read the recording thread in x5 section

backup to usb isn't even an option

try the other video player

it works just fine save it to internal then open a file explorer app and locate the zip and send it to usb then look in restore/usb

I never said auto selects hls for everyone

ya it shows the full 2 hours not sure why it worked this time but I did confirm auto was using hls and not ts

saw a post somewhere else where person changed video player and that fixed it

using sort by number was always available

so using auto(hls) I completed a 2 hour recording

set up another scheduled recording using auto for stream been an hour and so far so good

so for stream I was using auto and according to my service it was picking hls I changed it to ts(mpegts) did a scheduled recording to internal drive and it recorded the whole movie which was just over 2½ hours

I thought I already said that...lol

try selecting channel renumbering to see if it helps because my 4900 stays in same category I was in

open the curtains...lol

so I tried twice using scheduled recording one was 2½ hours and only 55 minutes recorded other was 2¼ hours and only 51 minutes recorded definately a bug in software 5.0.893

you can use a file explorer app and transfer your current apps for the rest go to livetv/menu/settings/configuration/app settings/backup & restore

I also use channel renumbering

put your apps on a drive all the rest can be done doing a backup to a drive

scheduled or on the fly?

record same program with both apps at same time and see what happens

mine stays in favourites in both examples

where the feed is coming from

source can be changed in the blink of an eye

if what you're recording freezes or changes source recording will fail
