DHR 4901 PVR Frequently Asked Questions
If you are unable to get the unit to power up. Check your external power supply to see if there is a green light displayed on the power supply itself. If there is no green light, the power supply is faulty and you will require a replacement. If there is a green light and no lights on the DHR4901PRV, there may be an internal fault. Please contact NAS Australia UEC Support on 07 3015 8790 or email uecsupport@nasaustralia.com.au for further assistance.
Make sure your TV is on the correct input channel to view the DHR4901PRV (HDMI).
If you are finding that your scheduled recordings are recording for a significant time after the scheduled program is set to finish in the EPG, check your ‘Recording Start Lead-Time’ and your ‘Recording End Delay’.
Menu> settings> User Preferences> Recording> Recording Start Lead-Time or Recording End Delay.
You will be able to change those actions from anywhere between 5mins-30mins.
The ‘Recording Start Lead-Time’ is the time that the unit will start recording your scheduled recording before the program is supposed to start. For example if your ‘Recording Start Lead Time’ is set to 5mins, your DHR4901PRV will start recording 5mins before the program is scheduled to start. It is the same with the ‘Recording End Delay’.
