Can you record a NetFlix movie or TV show to the hard drive?

You can record TV shows onto the Tivo HDD. They are encrypted so you can copy them someplace else. TIVO is always recording which is why you can pause live TV, or if a show is playing on a channel it's already on, and you missed 30 minutes, you can hit record and it'll record from the beginning onward. if you change the channel that data would get tossed and it'll start recording on the new channel, just in case you want to do that again or just pause live tv to take a piss break or get something to eat. Nothing any other DRV can't also do. Netflix is different. You're not recording content from your Antenna, you're streaming a program from a service. In this case it's Netflix. You are only streaming it directly from Netflix. Nothing is getting recorded to the HDD. It's no different then if you were using a ROKU Box, or a Chromecast, or watching on your computer.

Yes but you must download and install the netflix app and you must also have sufficient space and system resources.

Why not! Justreplug it into the other TV. The series 2 will still have your recordings on the hard drive. You won't lose your recordings.

Idk about a straight hard drive install. Not sure how you would access the files. I do, however, regularly connect my computer/iPad to the tv thru an HDMI cable. I can watch files on the unit or stream from the internet.

Yes I believe you can record to a flash drive just a hard drive, although I have not tried

No hard drive. records directly to DVD. The machine is finicky about the type of DVD .used. DVD-RAM works best

This device has no hard drive, it just provides an ota tuner. You connect you outside antenna to it. Programs you record will be on the DVR harddrive

However, Netflix streamed content DOES have copy protection enabled, and I was unable to record Netflix content via RCA jacks.

Mark, Do you mean Hybrid Hard Drive? The only hard drive this unit will allow you to record from is the internal hard drive. The internal drive is a mechanical spinning drive type. This Panasonic will not allow any external drive either because the Linux software is only programmed for what resides inside the machine. Serious re-programming would be required to accommodate hardware other than what's inside. Hope this helps you.

Recorded shows? Are you referring to shows you have stored on a hard drive? I don't have the costar anymore but it does have a plex app that works somewhat. I would suggest a chromecast cheaper and actually works a lot better

Remember this unit records to HDD and DVD. So you can record it to the HDD, but sometime you might have to copy it to a DVD if wanted to save space on the HDD. You can use the HDD as a VHS. The only way to transport the HDD content is to copy on a DVD otherwise you will have to disconnect your unit every time you wanted to see the HDD at a friend's place which is very impractical to do. Also when you record on the HDD, try to edit the title's name so you would remember what it is.

Yes, but you can only copy from the internal HD to it. All program recording is to the internal HD none to the external HD. From time to time you must copy internal to external then erase the internalto maintain space for program recording.

No, you have to load data onto the hard drive, then watch from there. No streaming available.

Yes, you can record to either a DVD disc or to the built in hard drive. I have been recording to the hard drive exclusively since I don't want permanent copies. I just erase the shows after I watch them. I recommend using the HQ option when recording for best quality. If you do decide to make a permanent copy you can dub to a DVD from the hard drive. You can go to the Magnavox web site and download the free users manual. That will answer all your questions.

Yes, you can search and save specific sections of recorded video with this unit. You can save it to your hard drive or a flash drive.

Yes. I record to the hd and them move to other devices but u believe there's an option to go direct to DVD. Regardless each movie is an individual file which you can delete. Also recommend maybe you burn two DVDs before you delete if you go through the time to record it.
