Changing Record Options/Canceling a Record
Once you have scheduled a program to record, you can change the record options or cancel the recording
by selecting the program in the Guide or the To Do List (press LIST, then YELLOW); then, select the
Record item in the left menu, and follow the onscreen instructions to change the program's options or
cancel recording completely.
You can change the following record options:
• For all programs, you can extend recording start and stop times (for example, start 1 minute before the
program; stop 5 minutes after the scheduled end of the program).
• For programs with multiple episodes, you can select whether to record fi rst run programs and repeats or
just fi rst runs, how many episodes to keep, and how long to save the recorded program.

Recording to VCR

To record a program on your VCR, make sure you've connected your VCR properly to your DIRECTV
Plus DVR, then select a recorded program from the My Playlist tab in the Playlist, set your VCR to
record, and play the selected program. See your VCR User's Guide for information on how to set it up for
scheduled or manual recording.
Important
To obtain optimum picture quality, make sure the receiver is connected directly to the TV. Connecting the receiver to the
TV through a VCR or DVD recorder is known to yield less than optimum picture quality, particularly when viewing copy-
protected programming.
