Philips provides the best possible connection
between your recorder and other home
cinema equipment. The recorder is controlled
by external devices (for example, receivers
and TVs) via Cinema Link and is automatically
set to the right system settings.
With this function you can align the sequence of
the channels on your TV (analogue only) with
those on your recorder. Make sure you have
connected the TV to the EXT1 TO TV-I/O
socket of this recorder.
This function enables you to record a
programme from your Satellite Receiver or
any other devices. Make sure that the device is
connected to the EXT2 AUX-I/O socket of
this recorder, and the timer setting has been
done on the connected device.
Direct Record
This function allows you to instantly record
the programme (analogue TV channels only)
you see on the TV without tuning this
recorder to the same programme.
Time Shift Buffer
As soon as you turn on this recorder, the
programme showing on the TV will be stored
into the 'Time Shift Buffer'. It acts as a

The contents will be automatically deleted
after 6 (six) hours or when you turn off this
recorder. To store the contents on the hard
disk permanently, you have to mark the
section in the 'Time Shift Buffer' for recording
to prevent them from being deleted.
