The Record icon in the taskbar
If a program is currently being recorded, the Record icon
also appears in the taskbar. If you move your cursor over
the icon, Media Center displays which program is
currently being recorded. You can right-click the icon to
open Media Center and stop recording.
Recording TV tips
If your HP Digital Entertainment Center has one TV
■
tuner and you are watching live TV during a
scheduled recording time, you can watch only the
program being recorded. If you change channels,
recording stops.
If you go to another area in Media Center, the TV
■
channel you last selected will be displayed in the
inset window at the bottom of the window.
Some channels can be shared by two or more
■
networks, depending on the time of day. The Guide
may display only one network's programming. This
may cause recording options to be unavailable. You
may need to manually update the Guide before
scheduling a recording.
Important information about My TV and FM radio
If your Digital Entertainment Center has one TV tuner, the
FM radio shares the use of the single tuner card with My
TV. In Media Center, you are unable to watch or record
TV and listen to FM radio at the same time. If your system
has two TV tuners, you could watch or record TV and
listen to FM radio at the same time.

To copy a recorded TV program to DVD to
view on a home DVD player, see "Copying
recorded TV programs to DVD or CD" on
page 49.
When Media Center is scheduled to start a recording, a
warning appears that says FM radio stops when the TV
recording starts. If you do not select Cancel recording,
Media Center automatically stops radio and begins
recording TV.
