Hi, Bought this superb TV just before Christmas. Gather from Spec, from email discussion with Samsung Support and from Which Magazine review that you can record from TV directly on to a USB Flashdrive. I have tried 3 Flashdrives, two Sandisk Cruzer 2.0 32GB devices and one 4GB device from another manufacturer. None work. After formatting, all of them fail the subsequent test. Several frustrating emails later from Samsung Support I am none the wiser. They say that the read/write of all these devices is too slow. They will not recommend a particular device or state that it is simply not possible to record on to a Flashdrive. Would be grateful to know if anyone has had any success with this. Regards, IanG
