Yes you can record from epg
2.5 hard drive upto 320 gig i think it is
I;m using Rytec on dreamelite... blue button\red button

Thanks,

I'm currently using Gemini image, but my epg doesn't seem to be very good sometime.

Could you set a program to record in advance, like with sky + kind of thing ???

Can we download a new EPG software ???

Thanks in advance.

I dont think there is a limit on hd size,I fitted a 500gig drive which works fine .
Recording can be done from epg and depending on epg can be done days in advance if you know the time of the recording you want you can do a manual recording setting the time channel and time you want days in advance.
The drive i fitted came from an external cady as at the time it was cheaper than buying a bare drive

try blue button/red button/ Rytec / green button...enable automatic refresh\........choose a time to update....save ................... and you should have full epg

Hi, i had recording problem on dm800hd-c, i'm using a 16gb thumb drive to do recording , i format the thumb drive to ntfs it can record but the play back video is not smooth but if i format the thumb drive to fat32 it works fine , the only problem is it can't record record more than 4gb in a single file , did anyone facing this problem and got the solution for that ?

This is probably because your thumb drive is formatted in FAT32 which only supports maximum files sizes of 4GB. You need to format it in NTFS for larger sizes (not sure if this can on a thumb drive).
