Which hard drive for an LG television?

Hello,
I have an LG 39LN575S television with PVR function. I can't record using a 32 GB USB drive formatted in FAT32. Do I need to buy a hard drive formatted in HFS+ for it to be compatible with the television's Time Machine II system?

Configuration: Windows Vista / Internet Explorer 9.0

    Hello,

    Indeed, here are the conditions to follow in order to enjoy this feature:

    - The hard drive must have a capacity between 40GB and 2TB. (USB 2.0 standard preferably)
    - SSDs are not recommended.
    - The HDD must be completely empty and unpartitioned.
    - It is advisable to use a self-powered HDD.
    - You must use the USB HDD in 1 port of your screen.

    Then you need to go to the main menu of your screen -> "My apps" -> "Digital Recorder".
    Once in this section, the screen will prompt you to format the storage device connected to your screen.
    Once the operation is completed, you will be able to enjoy this function.

      Hello,
      thank you,

      but when I connect an empty disk, it tells me that I need to insert a TimeMachine disk for it to work and never offers to format it.

      For me, formatting only appears when requesting to save.
