• Q: What format does it record in? Will I be able to transfer the files onto my PC or burn it on a DVD?
  

  It will record in .ts format. You will be able to transfer your recorded material onto your PC and burn it onto a DVD by first converting the file to a DVD format.

• Q: What type of external hard drives and flash drives can be used with the PVR?
  

  The PVR will only operate with powered external hard disk drives. This means that the external hard drive needs to have its own separate power supply.
  The PVR is compatible with plug and play USB flash drives up to 32GB and these do not require their own power supply.
