Enigma,
Troypoint’s guide doesn’t address your question because it’s setting up a DVR system via Tivimate’s premium service…which is really worth the little bit of money IMO.

I have IPTVSmarters on a couple of my devices because of the NCAA tourney because Smarters does muli-screen pretty well. I’ll try recording something & post here about my success or failure.

OK,
I just recorded a 15 minute sample, so I can’t vouch for really how reliable it is…
Also, I couldn’t find how to record a future program; so AFA I know you can only record a program that is currently streaming.

Here’s what I did:
On the IPTVSmartes’ home page, to the right of the Master search, you’ll see an icon that looks like a camera and says “rec”.
Select the REC. Here is where you select a Directory (if you’re a Windows apologist, “directory” means “file”.) I chose ‘path:/storage/emulated/0/Download’ in internal storage.

Now I ran the trial with a MeCool with 32 GB (edit) ROM with 32 GB of adopted storage. I’m pretty confident that an ONN or Dynalink cheapie with adopted storage would work well too.

I doubt that it would work with a FS 4K, it might with a 4K MAX.

To be honest, if DVR capabilities are important to you, I’d go ahead & subscribe to Tivimate’s paid service.

The player I use to record iptv and future record is “iptv extreme”. simple to record. I really like it because it also has chromecasting capabilities. I don’t think you can future record with smarters, at least, I was never able to.

I bought it directly from MeCool.
I got the KM1 model for about $62 shipped. I had to wait awhile for it because it shipped from China & I ordered it during the month of the Chinese NewYear.

I think what Ron was referring to was the 32 GB of RAM.
I have a Mecool KM2 in it’s box. 2GB RAM. lol.
