Record live TV from your IPTV playlist on Windows

Record what is on now

1. Open Live TV and choose the channel.
2. Press Record.
3. Stop it whenever you like from Recordings.

Schedule it from the guide

1. Open the TV Guide and choose the programme.
2. Choose Record: it starts and stops with the programme.
3. The PC has to be on, with OndalyTV open, at that time.

Watch and tidy up

• Recordings lists what is scheduled, what is recording and what is finished; Play opens it in the app.
• Delete removes the file from the disk.

Good to know

• Recording is in the Windows app. On Android TV and phones there is no recording; if your provider keeps an archive, catch-up lets you watch past programmes there.
• A recording uses one connection to your provider: to watch another channel while you record, your account has to allow two at once.
• Recording is part of Premium.

Where recordings go and how much space they take

• Recordings are saved in OndalyTV's own folder on the PC and listed in Recordings, where you play or delete them.
• An hour of HD takes roughly 2 to 4 GB, depending on the channel. In Settings you can set a disk limit in GB; the app also keeps 500 MB free and stops a recording before it fills the disk.

Common questions

• Can I record one channel and watch another? Yes, if your provider allows two connections at once.
• What happens if the PC restarts? Scheduled recordings are kept and start on time; a recording that was running when the PC turned off stops there.
• Does it record films and series? Recording is for live channels; films and series from your playlist can already be played whenever you like.

Price

Live TV is free, with no account. Premium unlocks the rest: the yearly plan (7.99 € a year + VAT, first 7 days free) or a lifetime licence (24.99 € once + VAT), on 5 devices with 2 watching at once.
