RECORDING OPTIONS
When you set up a new DVR timer, you can choose from the following options:
• Stop Recording Manually—The receiver will record until you press STOP.
• Extend End Time—You can extend the stop time for the recording. This option is
useful for programs that might run overtime, like sporting events or awards shows.
• Create an Automatic Timer—You can set up timers to automatically record
programs. See Setting Up an Automatic Timer on page 68.
• Record the Entire Event—The receiver stops recording at the end of the event. This
selection is available only if the receiver was turned on (not in standby mode) and
tuned to the same channel since the beginning of the current program.
GROUPING AND SORTING RECORDED PROGRAMS
The My Recordings list re-arranges itself to match your sorting or grouping selection(s).
1 Press the DVR button two times (or press DVR and then select My Recordings).
2 Choose a group or sort option to help you quickly find the program you want to watch:
• To group programs into folders, select Group, then select a Group Option.
• To sort programs by name, date, or other categories, select Sort, then a Sort Option.
