"If you have mounted the usb to media/usb
Press menu,setup,system,recording paths, press ok on default movie location
if it says media/hdd in the bottom press blue to remove bookmark

hi lite list of storage devices or parent directory in top window..press ok and browse until you see USB go down to it and it says media/usb at the top
dont press ok just leave it hi lighted
now press blue to add book mark, it should put media/usb in the bottom window

George XL, please could you explain about the following part of your post :-By a software FTP or by telnet
create a folder named movie on your usb stick: /media/usb/movie
Where can I find FTP ot telnet and how would I use it. Many Thanks -
m8..you dont need to do that follow the guide i posted you dont need to ftp by software (ie flashfxp program) or telnet (putty or telnet in windows)...i done that and it works fine, but you may need a faster or more reliable media to record on as i was getting glitching and freezing when playing back on my pny 32gb usb stickk

You must create a folder called movie in /media/usb/ .
You can do this using a ftp software ( i use total commander ) or open a tellnet sesion and create the folder using linux commands. -
Thx guys almost their, I think i can now record, but have not managed to create a folder called movie in media/usb/. can i do that using the remote?
-
Not with the remote.

like i said mate, i didnt need to create any folder i used the remote and followed the instructions that i posted....have you tried that way ?...cos i did and it worked for me on my vu+duo original with blackhole image 1.7.8
