IBO Player Recording and Catch-Up Guide

Recording saves a live stream to your storage; catch-up requests a past programme from a source that supports it.

Can IBO Player Record Live TV?

You need adequate writable storage, a stable stream and permission to record the content. Select a programme or live channel, choose Record, then confirm the recording location. Leave the device and storage available for the scheduled period.

How Catch-Up Works in IBO Player

Common causes include insufficient storage, a disconnected USB or network folder, interrupted streams, device sleep and connection limits. Test a short recording first. If another stream is playing simultaneously, the playlist may require more than one permitted connection.

Recording Requirements and Limitations

Catch-up appears only where the playlist and source provide past broadcasts and correct EPG mapping. Open the guide, move to an earlier supported programme and select it. Missing catch-up is often a source or EPG issue rather than a recording-setting problem.
