February 15Feb 15 Hi everyone I dont record much, but later today I want to. I select the channel, and put the show on, hit the red button and a grey message appears Task 'CHANNEL' [SHOW] has been added it shows up in my scheduled menu under PVR, but not recordings. I have tried setting a manual recording as well, nothing happens. A red symbol shows up in the guide that I am recording- I think? I have searched high and low for a similar thread, but nothing. Theres a setting somewhere I need to change.... Please help!
February 15Feb 15 Author OK, so I found one button record was on, turned that off now I get the recording settings menu pop up. however, when i save, it still just generates a task, doesnt start recording
February 15Feb 15 Author Additional info: -no red REC on top right corner -I have a 64gb usb and its set to record to that in all storage settings -I am not changing the channel, or turning anything off

February 15Feb 15 Author I just assumed that way theres no errors and all info requested is there instead of going back and forth
February 15Feb 15 Are you scheduling to record these in the future, or are you selecting something that has already started ? If you "schedule" something to record that "started" in the past, it will not trigger a record. Let's try a simple task first. If you enable the One button record. Then while you are watching a show full screenm and you press the "RED" button, does it start a recording (with red icon on top right of screen) ? IF so, let it go for 30 seconds and then you can press the red button again to cancel it. Then go into your PVR->PVR Recordings.. IS it there ?

So I have tried that, and a red record icon does not show up. *** IT SAYS REC ON THE GUIDE BUT NOT AT THE TOP RIGHT CORNER if I press the red button (i have confirmed the red button is still set up default and not reassigned to anything else) I have pressed the red button, with One button record active, and it displays the grey banner above about adding a task. with One button record disabled, it opens the recording settings menu, and I save it but it reacts the same, sets a task but no recording. **this is with current live shows, as well as set up a future recording and still no recorded shows in the PVR menu.

February 15Feb 15 OK.. I think at this point, the best option would be a hard factory reset. You can use the backup & restore option in the configuration menu of BuzzTV to backup your server and favorites (to avoid redoing them all, if you have spent time customizing them). Put the backup on a USB stick. Backup is tiny. Verify that there is a small ZIP file on the stick if you want to make sure backup worked. Then proceed to a hard factory reset. Here is a video in case you need it. Different model in the video, but process is the same:
February 15Feb 15 Author Well I have to admit I was considerin the same thing. a month ago my home button stopped as well, both remotes so I know the box is glitched. Thanks for all the help!

February 15Feb 15 Try recording to internal so that you can rule out if something is wrong with the usb
