Recording problems/Temporary add Channels Zgemma 2s

[blacky1973]

2 questions....

1. Got a 500gb HDD attached to my Zgemma 2S, only thing saved to it is my EPG so plenty of remaining space, but when I try to record I get a error message 'Write error while recording disk full?'

2. My football teams pre-season friendly is being shown on Eurosport Germany, I'm based in the UK, is there anyway to add this channel only to my 2S then remove it again afterwards?

Thank you.

Question 1.
Check that you default recording location is set to your Hard drive;
Menu-Setup-Recording&Timeshift-Recording settings, ensure Default movie location is /media/hdd/movie

If it isn't use left/right arrows on remote to scroll to that location (it can be slow on a 2s) if it doesn't scroll then your hard drive isn't configured correctly and will need to be initialised; All Data on your hard drive will be erased
Menu-setup-system-storage devices-intialisation select your Hard drive and ok and don't forget to reboot then try changing your storage location again you will also have to save your EPG again to.

Question 2.
If it's not on Eurosports UK 1 or 2 then unless you have a motorised dish the only way to view on a zgemma will be via kodi direct or iptv player and as I class yourself as the guru on such matters I will leave you to find the feed on sports devil

Tried to initialise the HDD but got this message 'Error: unmount: can't forcibly unmount /media/HDD device or resource busy'
