Timer Recording

What is FREEVIEW+
FREEVIEW+ is the function that enables timer recordings to be controlled by the signal sent from the
broadcaster. "Guide Link", "Series recording" (
"Guide Link" – If you set a timer recording from the TV Guide, the recording's start and stop
times can be controlled by the broadcaster, e.g. delayed start.
This is indicated by "Guide Link" in the Timer Recording screen in step 2 (
"Split Programme" – If a programme is separated into 2 or more parts by some other
programmes e.g. news, this unit pauses recording during the gap.
This is indicated by "Split" in the Timer Recording screen in step 2 (
When setting timer from the 1st split programme, other parts of the programme will be
automatically set and indicated by the timer mark on the TV Guide, but not shown on the
timer recording list.
If you set a timer recording from the TV Guide, the recording's start and stop times are
controlled by the signal sent from the broadcaster. If the signal is not sent correctly,
the recording may lack the beginning or the ending part of the programmes.
In order to make the timer recording work successfully, we recommend you set the
start time earlier and the end time later by some minutes, up to a maximum of 10
minutes for Guide Link to function.
e.g. When you set the timer recording for a programme that will start at 10:00 and end
at 11:00, set "9:58" and "11:05" in step 3 (
