About this deal

On your TV, find the pairing code. This will either be displayed on the screen or in your TV’s settings menu. You can record a current show that is playing but you can’t schedule recordings for the future because there is no electronic program guide built into the app. The first is an outdoor antenna that I personally use which is the RCA Compact Outdoor Yagi HDTV Antenna with 70 Mile Range. Once you enter the DVR section, you can choose from the following, Channel Guide, Scheduled Recordings, Recording Priority, and DVR Settings. The recording features that come with this device are outstanding. You will see below some test recordings that have been added to my Fire TV Recast.

Make sure you have the latest version of the software for your Fire TV streaming media player, Fire TV Edition television and/or Echo Show.Same screen as previous but the “Priority” toggle has been applied. We can set what is most important in case there are more than two recordings scheduled at the same time. I recently replaced my Dad’s indoor RCA antenna with the 60-Mile Indoor Mohu Leaf and it made a huge difference in the number and quality of channels received. The recording capabilities are very similar to cable and satellite DVRs that provide the same functionality. Your Fire TV Recast and Echo Show will pair automatically if they are both connected to the same WiFi network and you are signed into both devices using the same account. Can I record IPTV with my Fire TV Recast? Once it’s connected, it will emit infrared signals that will be received by your TV’s remote control sensor. This will allow you to control your TV with your Fire TV remote.

The reason why I use an outdoor antenna is that this provides the best possible reception. Also, it is simple to spread this signal to all other television hookups in the house since this is connected to the main splitter in my basement. Prior to purchasing the Fire TV Recast, I had to switch my TV input to “Local TV” with the television remote to watch over-the-air broadcasts. Also, there is no electronic program guide for my channels on my television. Note: You can use Alexa to control Fire TV Recast on any Fire TV streaming media player with an Alexa Voice Remote, Fire TV Edition television, or Echo Show. Tech support tells you to do a factory reset. But then you’ll loose your recordings and have to reprogram the dvr.You can issue commands to the Fire TV Recast with Alexa-enabled devices. You can say things like “Alexa, open Channel Guide” or “Alexa, record Riverdale.” You can even play live or recorded TV shows directly on the Echo Show! Access to the free Fire TV app on a Fire Tablet (5th Generation or Above), an iOS 10 (or above), or an Android 5.0 (or above) mobile device

What do you plan on recording that isn’t available through various apps such as Cinema APK, Kodi, etc.? I plugged mine directly into an available LAN port (with a network cable) on my router for a more reliable connection. Then, I connected my over-the-air coax cable and power cord to the unit. This is the screen for a specific recording which allows you to play your chosen show from the series or go into recording options.Within the Captions and Audio section, you can configure subtitles and in my testing they work very well.

Launch the Fire TV app on your mobile device and tap Set up Fire TV Recast and follow the instructions to set up your Fire TV Recast. When playing live TV, there is absolutely no lag or stutter which I have found in other similar products. While playing live television, the menu button on the remote provides us with the following features, Channel Guide, Earliest Available, Captions & Audio, and Record. Some people would prefer using an indoor antenna instead and in this case, I recommend the Mohu Leaf Indoor HDTV Antenna. The determining factor on whether you would buy something like this all depends on your viewing preferences and budget. There is no limit, you can pair your Recast with as many Fire TV compatible devices as you would like. What resolutions does Fire TV Recast support?

These antennas come with differing reception distances so you can choose which best fits your needs. Note: With 2 tuners, you can record up to 2 shows at once and with 4 tuners, you can record up to 4 shows at once. With both models, you may watch a live TV show via the Fire TV Recast on up to two devices simultaneously. It is important to note that you are not required to use a network cable because it will work via wireless connection as well as through your WiFi router. Enter the pairing code on your remote. The light will turn solid at the top of the remote to indicate that it’s connected.
