PVR (Personal Video Recording)
About hard disk recording
As you probably already know, this box is equipped with a built-in
hard disk, similar to those in ordinary Personal Computers (PCs).
This hard disk, thus, can be used to record TV and radio programs.
To get the most out of disk recording, follow these simple tips to
keep the disk well prepared for new recordings.
• Remember to delete recordings from the disk that are not
needed any longer.
• For recordings you want to keep, you can transfer them to a
traditional analogue Video Recorder. Recordings made on the
built-in disk cannot be digitally transferred to an external hard
disk.
• We suggest that you spend some time testing the functions until
you are familiar with them.
It is important for you to also be aware of the following facts
concerning the hard disk recording:
• During a pause recording or a normal recording, only the
channel you are watching for the moment can be recorded; for
example, you cannot watch channel 4 and record channel 8 at
the same time.
• A big benefit that the built-in hard disk possesses, but an
analogue video recorder lacks, is the possibility for you to
start watching the playback of a program while the
recording of the same program is still in progress. This
possibility is utilized in the pause recording procedure, which is
described in further detail in this manual.
• NOTE: unauthorized recording of TV programs or other
material may infringe on copyrights and be against
copyright laws.
Different ways of recording
In this guide, there are three ways of recording:
1. pause recording
This function is useful when you need to take a break while
watching TV.
2. normal recording
Spontaneously starts a recording at any time you want. As you will
see, the procedure differs a bit from pause recording.
3. timer recording
Use the Timer function to automatically record programs when you
are not at home.
