How to stop recording?

[newasiaguilt]

May I ask what harddisk most m8 here use? Is it a separate powered 1 tb harddisk or usb powered external ?

The reason is I get pixelized resolution and garbled sounds for recorded playback and I suspect its the harddisk problem. Mine is a external 320G harddisk.

Can anyone shed light on my problem?

OK! Got it to work. I switched from external harddisk (underscrewing and taking apart the cover) to insert as internal harddisk.

Used the same procedure to format and mount harddisk ( 2x blue button and then device manager). But instead of using main menu to initalize the harddisk... I chose tspanel then device manager to initialize disk and that solved my problem (playback pixelized and garbled sounds). The tspanel is from tunisat manager 3.0.

The reason I need to initialize now is becos I tried to do this under main menu and eventually got hdd not present or not initialized thus can only time shift but not record.So for anyone that cannot initialize the harddisk can try my method.

Thanks to everyone to anyone who tried to help.

you have to go to menu then timer and stop via there

That is what I tried and it gave me the option to delete the file not to stop the recording. As anyone been able solve this conundrum?

I am running Dream Elite Phoenix image on a DM800 to stop a recording just press red and it gives you the option to stop recording.
