I'd reformat/reload this USB drive and try again. I don't see make/model of all things but for the models that record on USB, well you have to format it on the TV. But then I would be using my old crystal ball.

TVs with recording features.

Have you format the media on the TV. Remember I can't find the model number so I am guessing a lot here.
