Scheduling a TV recording (single or series)
Your computer must be on, in Stand by, or in Hibernate mode to enable a scheduled TV recording. If the Media Center
program is running, it does not permit your computer to automatically enter Stand by mode.
You can press the STANDBY button on the remote control if you wish to place your computer directly into Stand by
mode.
If a recording conflict occurs, Media Center looks for alternative times to record a TV program or an episode in a series.
Recording a TV program series enables you to record each episode of that program from any available channel that is
scheduled to broadcast it. Media Center does not record duplicate episodes.
A scheduled recording continues, even if you close the Media Center software program.
