TiviMate Failed to Change the Recordings Folder Here’s the Answer

How recording works in IPTV

Recording is a player feature. TiviMate records with its Premium upgrade, to device storage or a network drive, while many other players don't record at all. Catch-up is the alternative: on supported channels, Ultra 8K IPTV keeps the last 7 days available to replay without recording anything.

Step by step

  • Check catch-up first. Open the guide and look for the catch-up icon on past programs.
  • Pick a recording player. If you need recordings, use a player that supports them, such as TiviMate Premium.
  • Choose storage. Add a USB drive or a network folder; internal storage on sticks fills up fast.
  • Set the path. For a network folder, enter the share path and a username with write access.
  • Schedule from the guide. Select a future program in the guide and choose Record.

Where recordings go

Streaming sticks have little free storage, so point recordings at a USB drive through an OTG adapter or at a network folder (an SMB share) on a computer or NAS. The share must allow writing, and the path usually looks like smb://computer-name/share. If the app refuses the folder, check the username, password and write permission on the share.

About TiviMate

TiviMate is a paid app and runs on Fire TV, Android TV, Google TV, and NVIDIA Shield. It signs in with Xtream Codes or M3U, so an Ultra 8K IPTV login works in it as sent.

Getting a person to look

FAQ

Questions people ask us

Not covered here? Send it on WhatsApp and a person on the support desk will answer, any hour of the day.

Does it work the same on every device?

The steps are the same wherever the app runs, but the buttons differ: a long press on OK with a TV remote, a long tap on a phone, and a right-click on a computer.

Why can’t I find the option?

Menus differ between players and versions. Update the app first; if the option still isn’t there, the player may not offer it, and another player that takes the same login might.

Does catch-up replace recording?

For most viewers, yes. Catch-up replays the last 7 days on supported channels with no storage needed; recording only matters for keeping something longer.

Will an update reset my settings?

Normal updates keep them. Clearing app data or reinstalling does not, so back up the settings first if the player allows it.
