Set Beyond TV to Record Direct to Disc with Quick DVD
We have integrated QuickDVD with Beyond TV so that you can schedule a TV recording to be
recorded direct to DVD disc.
This is single session recording meaning that only a single programming event can be recorded
direct to disc. The advantage is that you can have a TV show recorded to DVD disc while you are
away, come home grab the recorded disc and play it in your home theatre.
When you run the Beyond TV Setup Wizard and select the "Instant DVD" or ADS PTV 305 Video
Capture – the Quick DVD application will also automatically be setup as a recording source.
Follow these steps to tell Beyond TV to launch Quick DVD:
1) Use the Program Guide to schedule a recording as normal
2) Press the Home key on the software or Menu key on the remote.
3) Select "Setup Recordings"
4) Then Select "Recording Settings and Priorities"
5) Now you will see a list of scheduled recordings. Click on the show that you wish to
record direct to disc and then click "View and Edit Details"
6) The first setting is "Record From" – change this setting to display Quick DVD. If you are
capturing from a Cable TV source it will be listed as "Cable- Quick DVD"
7) Click the Home button at the top of the software or press the Menu key on the remote.
You have now set that your scheduled recording to be recorded directly to DVD disc.
Quick DVD – Direct to Disc
If you have set Beyond TV to use Quick DVD for disc recording, the Beyond TV will close down just
before the scheduled record time. The TV channel will be changed and Quick DVD is launched and
recording begins.
Quick DVD will record the TV show to your hard disc first, then automatically burn the DVD disc.
