UTOMATIC TANDBY
To extend the lifespan of the HD PVR, you have the option to disable the hard disk during periods when
the decoder is not in use. When the HD PVR is in standby, the hard disk goes to "sleep". Recordings
scheduled for when the HD PVR is in standby are not impacted and will take place.
If you change the default setting and select a time period, the HD PVR will automatically go into standby
after the selected period of inactivity.
HD PVR Viewer's Guide – UEC
The PVR will eliminate the safety net to
avoid conflict.
Example : you have two recordings set from
10:00-11:00 (09:57-11:10 with default safety
net).
If you want to schedule a recording for 11:00 –
12:00, the PVR drops the safety net of one of the
recordings to ensure that this recording can be
accommodated.
o Press WHITE to edit the options
o Press OK to confirm selection
The new settings will only take effect on new
scheduled recordings, ie. existing scheduled
recordings retain their original safety net settings.
