VESTEL 32HD7100T SMART HD TV (32 inch)

Advertised as ready for "USB Recording (PVR Ready) ", but I can't record to USB

Changed many USB drives and tried even with external HDD connected to TV. Formatted as FAT32/NTFS.
Tried with different sources of TV signal (VCR, DVB-T2).

Do you know what is the problem?
 
Any TV advertised as a PVR can only record from it's internal tuner, it cannot record from any external source.
 
It doesn't record from DVB-T2 too (i.e. internal tuner)
 
Where do you live, what country?
Have you tried formatting the drive on the TV?
How old is the TV?
 
I live in Georgia (rep.), the standard used is DVB-T2

I did formatting using TV USB formatting option, TV is about 2 years old and recently realized that the PVR function doesn't work

Can you expand on the symptoms a bit? 'Can't record' doesn't give us much to go on. What exactly happens when you try?
 
USB inserted on TV, I push REC button from remote - nothing happens.
I remove USB drive, push again REC button - error message "No USB drive inserted"
So, remote REC works, the system recognize this command, but doesn't record

Of course, thank you so much, I was watching DVB-T2 channels via Amiko Sat receiver, that is why it was not possibly to record them to USB, I've just connected DVB-T2 antenna cable directly to TV and it is now RECORDING well.

Thank you all for your help.
