Controlling TV playback
The personal video recorder functionality lets you
record single shows or capture entire series for later
viewing.
When you open the My TV window and begin
watching live TV, Media Center begins recording
the selected program in the background for up to
30 minutes. When you pause a live TV program
while watching in full-screen mode, the time-shifting
window appears.
You can return to the live broadcast by pressing the
Live TV button on the remote control.
When you change the channel, Media Center
deletes the previously recorded portion and begins
recording again after a short delay.
You cannot use time shifting when recording a TV
program. For example, you cannot pause a live TV
program and then rewind to the beginning of the
pause buffer and then begin recording. You can
record a TV program only from live TV.
The 30-minute pause
buffer applies only
when pausing,
rewinding, and fast-
forwarding live TV.
Media Center allows
you to record a
program for longer
than 30 minutes.
The digital video
recording features
are for select
models only.
