KD-55S8005C - help needed to use HDD recording feature
Hiya, I thought it'd be as easy as buy a HDD, plug it into a USB on the TV and record. But it isnt apparently.
It's a KD-55S8005C telly and Western Digital 2Tb HDD (Model: RWDBMWV0020BBK-EESN)
The tv detects the drive when plugged in and links the tv to the drive. So i think everything is fine there.
As far as I am aware, i am not allowed to have youview installed, if i want to use recording to hdd? So i dont have youview installed
When i hit guide on the remote, nothing happens.
In the action menu, i dont see any recording options.
So,
a) i cant see how to browse channels to find something to record
b) I cant see any way to record.
Please HELP! If you have a KD-55S8005C telly and you have got recording to work, please share your tips/setup.
The TV is connected to a Onkyo home sound system, and a XBONE. The tv signal goes into the XBONE via USB converter, then XBONE to Onkyo, then HDMI and Optical from Onkyo to TV. I dont see how that really affects not being able to record, i am sure its something simple, but i figure'd the more info the better.

Check also in the setting which options you have related to recording (including re-verify the HDD). Don't know if I'll be connected when you have the answers....

It could be. I didn't try but the TV is able to record only form internal decoder (sat or digital): so if you don't have any it can't work
