help recording

As some of you may know im new to this box. Ive got the box all set up to view all sly channels and the skin sorted ans everything how i want it for now. The next thing is recording!

Ive just practiced recording something and its worked, and it recorded 100minutes before an error of "........disk full?"

My main question is, how do i find out where im recording the programs to, because the box has memory doesnt it? And also ive an 8gb usb pen in the back but ive attached my 500gb seagate hd in the front? I want to be able to add my recorded programs to the seagate. Any help would be much appreciated!
 
Box has tiny internal memory. Dont record to it.
What image are u using on box?
Use 1 drive or other for setting up. So if using 500gb remove 8gb.
 
Using openvix from your backup sucmnsee. I thought the usb in the back had to stay in at all times? For timeshare or something? I think my recording has went onto the usb and not the HD. When i go to select where to record though there are only 4 options and the seagate HD doesnt appear? Should it?

Lol no probs dude. Never reboot with second usb in as it can reset paths to it by accident
 
So does that mean ill just leave my external seagate HDD in the back of the box all the time and wont need my usb memory pen thing?

When i go to check the recording and playback settings and click on either "timer" or "instant" recording and go to select location there are only 2 options....."backup+SL" and "internal flash" is the first one my HDD or have i messed up somewhere?
 
Yes just use your external Hdd for both it should be set for Media/Hdd just make sure you follow Sucmnsee post and your Hdd is mounted To find your recordings press File list on remote
