Digital Video Recording (DVR) with Dual Tuner
(Optional Feature)
Imagine...coming home to your own personal library of television programs, movies, and sports that you can watch
whenever it's convenient for you. It's TV for your schedule.
Pause live television! Rewind and replay programs so you don't miss a beat.
Record up to 90 hours* of your favorite programs and view them as many times as you want, whenever you want.
You can even record High Definition TV**. All without rentals, tapes or returns.
Your Dual Tuner DVR has made recording and watching your favorite programs easier than ever. Powered by
i-Guide, now you can watch a program while recording another or record two programs at once! You have your
own personal video library, stored on your digital set-top box, so you can watch them at your convenience. You can
even pause, fast forward and rewind LIVE TV to playback the scenes you've missed. In fact, your DVR is one of the
first available that can actually record and play High Definition programming!**

Control Live TV

Using your DVR with i-Guide, you can control LIVE TV. Anytime you tune to a channel, the DVR begins making a
temporary recording of whatever you're watching. So you can PAUSE if the phone rings, REWIND the scene you
missed and FAST FORWARD to skip what you don't want to watch. Your DVR will record up to one hour of live TV + .
The live TV recording is not a permanent recording, unless you actually record it to the DVR's hard drive. For live TV
recordings, the temporary recording buffer will be erased if any of the following occur:
• Turn off your DVR.
• Watch the same channel for longer than the temporary recording (buffer) period. Only the most recent
hour of the program (15 minutes of HD) is kept in the temporary recording.
• Switch to another program on the same tuner. When you change channels without using the SWAP
function, your DVR begins to store the new program. It removes the previous program you were watching
from the storage. (See SWAP section for additional information.)
• You watch watch more than one hour. After one hour, the DVR removes the earlier minutes of the
recording, so that only the most recent hour is kept in the temporary recording.
Playback Controls
You can play back your video reordings using the buttons on your remote using the Video Control Buttons.
