Teac LE55AE1UHD User Manual - Recording With Pvr

Recording with PVR

Note: To use these features, a compatible data storage unit 

(like a flash drive or hard disk drive in FAT32 format) must be 

connected and running. NOT all USB devices, such as phones, 

MP3 players, cameras, and the like, are compatible with 

recording TV programs. We recommend using USB Flash 

Drives, or external HDDs with a separate power supply. 

RECOMMENDED: Format the data storage unit before doing 

any recording to ensure that it is in the correct file system 

format and that there is enough data space for recording. To do 

so, press the MENU button, go to the SETUP menu, and 

choose “PVR File System” and “Format”. 

WARNING: Ensure that no valuable information is currently 

stored in the connected data storage unit, as the formatting 

process means that ALL DATA will be ERASED. TEAC does 

not take responsibility for lost data. 

WARNING: While Time Shift or other recording functions are 

running, DO NOT disconnect the data storage unit, to avoid 

damage or data loss. This feature is only available in DTV 

Mode. If the storage space is running low, recording may not 

start, or be interrupted halfway. 

Instant recording 

To start recording, press the RECORD button on the remote 

control. 

To stop recording, press the STOP button. 

ON-SCREEN CONTROL PANEL 

While recording, you can use playback controls on the video at 

the same time, for example, to pause/fast forward/rewind it. 

Use the buttons on the remote control or navigate the on-

screen control panel to do this. 

To hide the on-screen control panel, press the EXIT button. 

To display the on-screen control panel again, press the     button. 

RECORDING WHILE ON STANDBY 

You can also put the TV on Standby Mode while still recording: 

     1. Press the POWER button. You will be asked whether you 

intend to continue recording or stop recording. 

     2. Use the◄/► buttons to highlight your choice. 

     3. Press the OK button to confirm and turn the TV off into 

Standby Mode. If recording is still in progress, you can see that 

the coloured LED light on the corner of the TV is flashing. 

Scheduled recording 

Schedule recordings ahead of time – recording can even start 

while the TV is in Standby Mode, so you don't need to keep 

your TV on. 

SCHEDULE VIA EPG 

This is a quick and easy way to schedule recordings according 

to programs available in the EPG, which lists the broadcast 

schedule up to 7 days in advance.
