Philips tv dvr

by trlef19

Hey guys, I wanna make a question. I wanna see a movie playing on a local channel but I want be able to watch it. So I'm gonna record it. Can anyone confirm that the movie will be recorded even if the tv is off? My tv is an Android tv running 7.1.2

Mine is a bit later than yours, it's a 2016 model running Android 8.something, but that's the way it works on mine.

If the TV is on or in Stand-by, the DVR event will record.

You have to have a hard drive plugged in to a specific USB port and have it adopted as internal storage for it to be used for the DVR. It'll prompt you do do that when you first plug it in.
