One-Touch Recording (OTR)

Use OTR to quickly record the remaining portion of a program being watched. OTR is a great
way to capture the end of a sporting event that has run into overtime or a live broadcast that
runs long.
OTR works in 30-minute increments. You can capture the last 30, 60, 90, etc. minutes of
programming (depending on the length of your tape, up to five hours).
Each time you press REC/OTR, the
recording time increases 30 minutes.
