13 DVR Recording
Before starting a DVR recording, please define which storage medium should be used
as a recording medium as outlined under Point 11.4.1 in your operating manual.
The following recording modes are available for DVR recording:
1. Instant recording
Select this type of recording to immediately record the programme currently being broadcast
at the push of a button.
2. Timer-controlled recording
This function is used to switch your digital receiver on and off to record the selected
programme onto the recording medium while you are out. The timer can be either manually
programmed or automatically programmed via the EPG function.
3. Timeshift recording
Timeshift recording enables timeshifted TV viewing. You can start to play back a programme
while it is still recording (= timeshifting).
In order to use as many recording options as possible, you must connect your receiver
to two separate DVB-S antenna lines. This makes the following combinations
of recording and playback possible:
- Record a programme and simultaneously play back any other programme
(including different reception ranges) or any DVR recording.
- Simultaneously record two programmes, even if these are received in different
reception ranges.
- Simultaneously record two different programmes and play back an already
recorded programme.
If it is only possible to connect the device to one antenna line, only limited recording
and playback options will be available.
- Record a programme and simultaneously play back another programme from
the same reception range or any DVR recording.
- Simultaneously record two programmes from the same reception range.
- Simultaneously record two programmes from the same reception range and
play back an already recorded programme.
