Set "Phone Avail." Detection. When Set 'Phone Avail.' Detection is on, the Recorder
can determine whether the phone line is in use by detecting voltage on the line. This
allows it to avoid disrupting a call in progress (such as another modem call).
This setting is off by default. With 'Phone Avail.' Detection off, you may hear a click
if you are on the phone when the Recorder tries to connect. If you have another modem
call in progress (on your computer or other device), that call may be disrupted if the
Recorder attempts to connect to the TiVo service. If you have a standard dial tone, and
'Phone Avail.' Detection is off, turn on Dial Tone Detection (below).
If you are experiencing "Failed, Line unavailable" errors, or if the Recorder is not
connecting to the TiVo service, you may have a low-voltage phone system that the
Recorder cannot detect. In this case, it's best to have 'Phone Avail.' Detection off.
Set Dial Tone Detection. This setting is on by default. If you leave it on, the Recorder
will check for a dial tone before it starts dialing. However, if you have a non-standard
dial tone, or a stuttering dial tone (as some voice messaging systems have), the
Recorder will be unable to detect the dial tone and will not make its daily call.
Restore previous options. The Recorder must make a successful test connection
before it will accept changes to Phone Dialing Options. If you want to restore your
previous dialing options and continue past this screen without making a test
connection, select "Restore previous options."
Recording
The Recorder offers you four levels of Video Recording Quality. The choice you make on
this screen is used each time you schedule a recording.
The recording quality choices available are Extreme (Fine), High (SP), Medium (LP), and
Basic (EP). The default is High (SP). Basic (EP) quality takes up about one-third the space
