Getting started
v Using Live Pause
u While you are watching a TV programme, you can pause it at
any moment you want - just press pause on the FOXTEL remote
control.
The TV picture and sound ‘freeze’, and the FOXTEL iQ2 starts recording
the programme.
u When you want to continue watching the programme from the
Live Pause point, press pause again, or press play.
When in live-pause the live-pause symbol displays on-screen (see
right). The number shows the number of minutes you are ‘behind’ the
actual live TV programmes.
While you are watching the Live Pause recording, you can use
pause, play, fast forward and rewind to move through the
recording. Symbols display on your TV screen to show you what is
happening (see page 95), and the lights on the front panel playback
indicator light up (see page 79). If you fast forward to the end of the
recording, the FOXTEL iQ2 takes you back to normal TV viewing.
While you are watching the Live Pause recording, the FOXTEL iQ2
continues recording the programme until it finishes. However, you can
press FOXTEL at any point to stop Live Pause and resume normal TV
viewing. When you stop Live Pause, the recording is deleted.
If you change channel, or launch an interactive application this will
also stop and delete the Live Pause.
Note
When you use Live Pause the FOXTEL iQ2 caches the programme,
but
it is not added to the Personal Planner.
This means, once you return
to normal TV, or launch an interactive application, the Live Pause cache
is deleted. To record the programme to the Personal Planner, to watch
it in the future, press the record button (see page 40).
