Why doesn't the Channel button work on my Samsung SRD-850DC?
If the Channel button does not work on the Live screen of your Samsung DVR, it's likely because the current screen is in event monitoring mode. To exit this screen, press the [ALARM] button, then select a channel.
Why can't I select the Start button in calendar search on my Samsung SRD-850DC DVR?
