PVR Issues

[wallstreet]

Having problems Recording. I have Buzz XPL3000 Box, Android 7.1.2. recording to Micro SD card. When using the default player and I play back something I have tried to record I get “Unknown Stream Format” the red record icon is not in the upper right corner of the screen when I use default. If I try the secondary player is says it says you cannot record with that player and it says the same using the internal player. If I use the old player It will record and play back but it is unwatchable while it is recording. I do not believe the default player is recording but I don't know, thats why I am asking questions.
I had this problem before the update and I thought the update would cure it.

maybe your micro sd card is formatted in to the right format.... try a portable hd instead and see what happens...

Thanks for the reply. I have tried different formats on the sd card and I have tried a USB stick. I will try a external HD tomorrow but I don't think it will make a difference although I could be wrong. If it helps I will Post

Just an update, I scrounged a HD from a neighbor, no joy.

how are you recording?

As I said in the origional post It will record using the "old" player but it has a terrible picture (unwatchable) while it is recording but when it plays pack it is fine, but when I use "default" player it wont record. The file it creates is empty. As far as how do I record, I have tried pushing the red button and also setting up a schedule, no recording using default, doesen't work. I even removed updates and reinstalled, no record using default

I just found the answer, it is the server I have been using, I tried a different one and guess what it works. I don't know what would be different in the server but something is. Just want to thank you guys for the response

I am not sure what the use is of recording while I am watching. The idea of PVR is to record when you cannot be at home to watch.
