5 Recording TV
This digital receiver can record TV programmes onto the built-in hard drive as
well as a removable hard drive or flash drive. However, flash drives are not re-
commended for recording.
The receiver is set to use the built-in hard drive for recording by default. To use
a removable hard drive, see Recording Preferences on page 41.
5.1 Recording TV Programmes
Under ideal conditions, users can watch 2 different channels at the same time
while recording 3 other channels. When using time-shifting, at most 2 different
channels can be recorded simultaneously. For details on time-shifting, see Time-
Shifting on page 40.
Press the record button to instantly begin recording the current programme.
Scheduling TV Recordings Using the Programme Guide
Use the programme guide to schedule TV recordings. Open the programme
guide, and press the OK button on a programme entry scheduled to air later.
Either choose Once Record to record the programmeonly once, or choose Series
Record to record its every episode.
At the scheduled time, the receiver turns on if it is off, and begins recording the
programme. Even if the receiver is set to turn off before the time that the record-
ing is supposed to finish, the receiver does not turn off until recording is done.
