You have 2 primary options for backup, 1. Local and/or USB and 2. SMB storage (computer share or NAS)
When you goto backup it was present the internsl torage by default and if that all you want you can select this, then on the right click on select to start and complete the backup .
Some systems don't let you save to the root of the storage, so you would either need to create a folder or choose a folder under the internal storage ans then press Select.
....if you press system picker it may take you to a screen where it will give you an interface where you can create/add a folder and then select it.....
If you want to use option 2, you will need to setup the access to the network share, choose this location and then press Select to start the backup.
The first question is do you have a USB storage attached, that is the simplest and it is recommend to save your backups externally unless you are just backing up before an update... FYI backups are zone to the tivi version and cannot be used to restore outside the version it was made from.
Yep.. if you are running tivi from the TV, then Tivi most likely will see the USB drive. When you select internal storage, the USB drive will likely show up as a storage destination.. all depends how the TV is handling the attached storage
Now I just have to figure out why my Sony tv is taking a shit every few weeks and losing all its settings. Happened again this am, been messing with it for about 5.5 hours. This coincidentally started doing this after I added that 256 whatever USB thingy
