A:AnswerHad the same problem with 120 GB ssd.
Had to let dvr video recorder format the hard drive, and works great now.
Had problems with different brand of them, But this SSD has no problem at all and stopped lack of sync with picture and voice.
Hope this helps.
A:AnswerIt depends on your antenna. If your antenna picks up a lot of channels then the device will pick them up. I'm using a Terk UHF VHF DIRECTIONAL indoor antenna. I get all the local stations and the device also tunes them in perfectly so that I can watch or record them.
A:AnswerYes it does have a signal strength meter. So far I am happy with the product, but I'm still in the learning mode stage.
I believe that I need to move the device closer to a window with an antenna to get better signal strength for more reliable recording. Not at the recording is unreliable, but I have many trees around me, and I believe there are times that they block the signal causing drop out at times. At least that's what I hope it is.
I've been recording on a western digital easy store USB 3.0. 120 Gig Thumb Dr with very good success.
The extension on the file it produces is an MTS. I downloaded a free, open source video editor called Shotcut. I'm also on a learning curve with this. And so far I'm having good results with it. I'm just trying to nail down the export settings that I want to use.
To let you know, I've been thinking about purchasing a second one so I can leave the one that I have set up already to use it to watch video files off of a thumb drive.
I would suggest you download the manual from the company just to get a better idea of what it will do, and/or how it will do it.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
A:AnswerI wish I could answer your question as to where the previous file is gone, but I can't. Mine don't seem to disappear, they just get tacked on with another name. I would suggest looking at your external hard drive on a computer to see if you can find them. At least this way you would know if they in fact were being deleted or the device just can't see them for some reason.
A:AnswerYou need to have a USB flash drive in the front USB slot to record and playback. Something like a 32 gb SanDisk Cruzer Glide. If you already have a usb flash drive in the usb slot and are getting this message then the usb flash drive is defective or the converter box is defective. Try a new usb flash drive and see what happens. I would not recommend connecting an external hard drive to this converter box due to the potential harm the converter box could do to the hard drive.
A:AnswerNo. It only supports ATSC 1.0. Nextgen is the new standard for 4K TV's and uses the new ATSC 3.0 standard. The Mediasonic won't work with ATSC 3.0
A:AnswerWith your HD antenna (about $30) you get free HD channels available in your area. You can buy an external DVR which connects by USB and record whatever you want for free.
A:AnswerYes, you can. Hdmi is a standard protocol. I had no problem using a soundbar with this as to watch the NBA Finals on my projector with a soundbar.
