It wouldn't record for me either. Unfortunately, I ended up just returning it. Sorry, I can't be of any help.

I'm not 100% sure what you mean, but the record button ONLY controls whether sound is being recorded onto the USB drive. You have to separately control whether the tape deck is actually playing. So, if you want to record the tape playing, you have to hit record and then play. When the tape reaches the end or you want to stop recording, press the record button again to end the recording. Hope this helps!

Worked fine for me. Didn't work with my 32GB USB, but it worked fine with my 2GB one.1. Plug the USB drive.2. Hit record (the gray button).3. Hit play (the silver button).Here are instructions to format the USB drive for DOS using a Mac computer:http://www.hgst.com/support/faqs/how-format-my-drive-use-windows-and-mac-fat32

Make sure your external USB drive is formatted for DOS. If you're using a Mac and the USB drive is format Mac OS Extended, the record function wont work.

The only thing I can think of is cassette tapes have a little plastic piece at bot ends on the edge opposite the tape opening. These can be broken off to make the tape "read only" so they cant be recorded over. Most tape players will not operate in the record mode if the tab is missing. Probably the case here. If the tab is missing, you can put a piece of tape over it. Hope this helped.

No...Like any other machine, you have to hit play or record with it in the correct mode. The instruction book is very clear.

I'm not sure about that. I couldn't find a setting for that, just make sure the "Loop Recording" is not set to "Off". Other than that I don't know what the issue might be, sorry.

I bought it for my son and it works great. It could be the record....have you tried several records. If so then I guess there is something wrong because his works perfect.

If you hit the rewind button while playing, you should be able to put the recorder in rewind mode. Otherwise its hit stop and then rewind. Since I returned the unit, I am assuming you would be able to go directly from playing to rewind without stopping and then rewinding for any period. Similar recorders do have that feature.

At least not in the way I'm using it, I'm playing recorded over the air (OTA) TV and that doesn't have scenes. I have a separate DVD player and remote, so have never tried with this one. The controls I use that might do that are fast for/rev and jump to next recording. Supposedly you are suppose to be able to program the 4 color buttons, but I haven't seen where anybody has done it. I believe you have to program your receiving device to make use of the color buttons.

I have had the same exact problem. Worked great for awhile; now just shows it is recording and doesn't register any sound. Would love to hear if anyone has a solution?

I haven't figured that out yet. My problem is I haven't read the instructions. I like things that are fairly simple, turn on play or record. I will be taking the time on my time off this week to figure it out. Sorry I do not have an answer for you. V/R Jackie

You have to flip a switch to re-record the message. When it is on "On" it cannot be changed. It will play the same thing every push.

I have only had mine for a couple of months and have not seen that kind of behavior from it at this point. Is it possible that it was in your pocket and the stop button got bumped accidentally thereby initiating a pause, and then (again accidentally) the record button got bumped thereby re-starting the record operation from that pause?

I've never encountered your situation, but it seems to me that any signals that enter the recorder should record ... if you have a cable that goes from HDMI to RCA. Good luck!

May be the setting, but I know it should record 5 minutes segment in each file. This way it is easy to find the file. You also might need to buy a 32GB memory card because I first used a 64GB card. It didn't work and I bought a 32GB card, it works fine until now. I hope it will help you.

does anyone know how to get to the recording mode so that you can change the recording time to either sp or lp playing time thanks

I've had the same problem with my ultra plus since day one. It was a gift and I didn't pursue taking it back to the original retailer. I've discovered that by holding the pause/record button in for a second or two it works better, but even this doesn't work every time. At times I have to turn the camera off while recording in order to stop recording. Really aggravating. Wish I could be of more help but it appears to be a widespread problem with this video camera. Otherwise I'd recommend this neat little camera to anybody. Since it seems to be a widespread problem I'd suggest folks buy a different camera. Should you discover a solution to this problem I do hope you'll post. I've had the same problem with my ultra plus since day one.

Yes. There is a small switch on the side. When you set it to the "record" position, you press the large button to begin the recording and again to stop it. When you set it to the "play" position, it plays your recorded audio.
