The Freeview app on the box prevents RECORDING. You can get around this by looking inside the system apps for one called HDTV app which accesses the tuner differently. Insert a removable USB storage stick. Then you need a Bluetooth remote (phone app) that has media buttons to stop recording. Red Blue Yellow Green ones also. You can then schedule recordings. The HDTV app allows channels to be customised, skip, rename and also search satellites. Play recordings back with VLC app is easiest.
