When I try to connect the two via USB so I can set up to record a programme directly from the tv in the HDD Registration I keep getting the message "The HDD connected with USB port for recording was not able to be recognised. Please confirm the connection"
Can you please advise as to what I'm doing wrong?

When I connect them via HDMI I can't record from the TV Guide, I have to go into the HDT500 & set a recording from the guide in there, is this right or should I be able to record to the HDT500 directly from the TV?

Hi Bucks
That is correct, You cannot use the TV Guide record facility with this PVR recorder (that is designed for external HDD's). To record TV shows, you must go through and use the HDT500 EPG. Besides you can record two shows on the HDT500 at the same time (as it has a dual tuner), then flick to the TV and watch a 3rd show (if you so wish)
Cheers

Hi there
You cannot connect the two via USB, or register the HDT500 as a HDD on the TV. You must connect the two (TV and HDT500) via HDMI.
Cheers
