About Record Live
The new Record Live feature allows you to start recording the live TV channel you’re currently watching without returning to the guide.
Users can access the new Record Live button within the In-Player Content Tray, making it easy to start recording a live program without missing a single second.
To access the new button, simply select down ( ↓ ) on the directional pad of your Roku remote while you’re playing live TV.
This will allow the In-Player Content Tray to appear. The RECORD button is located to the right of the PLAY/PAUSE button.
Selecting it will tell your Tablo to start a recording of the program you’re currently watching.
When the recording has begun, the button will turn orange. Selecting the button again will end the recording immediately, instead of automatically at the end of the current program.
You can read more about this new feature and how it works on the Tablo Knowledge Base.
