Digital Video Recorder (DVR)

3
The DCX3510-M set-top is equipped with an internal hard drive for DVR (Digital Video
Recorder) functionality, which provides the ability to record both Standard-Definition TV
(SDTV) and High-Definition TV (HDTV) programs. Storage time varies based on the video format
and specific channel.
DVR offers the ability to control your viewing experience by pausing (time shifting) live TV and
providing trick playback modes (pause, fast forward, slow forward, fast rewind, slow rewind).
You may experience a slight delay when switching between time-shifted and live TV.
The DCX3510-M model also includes integrated MoCA™ networking which supports whole-
home DVR capabilities. This feature extends the DVR experience to DCX3200-M or other
compatible non-DVR set-tops with integrated MoCA, when enabled by application software.
On your non-DVR set-top you can now view your DVR recordings, playback content, and set
future recordings from another room in your home.
With the DCX3510-M set-top, you can:
•
Record Programming. The DCX3510-M is equipped with a 500 GB storage drive which
can record 160-300 hours of standard-definition programming, or 40 to 60 hours of high-
definition programming. These capacities are based on recording digital MPEG-2 video. A
recording of a video program that is broadcast in digital MPEG-4 format requires
approximately half the disk space.
•
Maintain a Personal Program Library. Use the Interactive Program Guide (IPG) to access
your library.
•
Control Live TV. Pause, rewind, replay and fast forward live TV.
•
Simultaneously Watch Two Programs. Watch two programs and easily switch between
them using the swap key on your remote control (Dependent upon program guide

another live broadcast at the same time.
•
Simultaneously Record Two Shows. Record two programs from two different channels at
the same time.
•
Simultaneously Record Two Shows and Watch a Recorded Program. Watch a program
recorded on your DVR while recording up to two other programs at the same time. You

you're recording.

MoCA networking, DCX3510-M recorded entertainment can be accessed by other
compatible non-DVR set-tops with integrated MoCA, when enabled by application
software.
