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
mouse 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 PC 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.
Important information about My TV and FM radio
In Media Center, 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.
Standby mode and scheduled recordings
You should always close Media Center before you
manually place the PC in standby mode, to avoid
file corruption and other recording problems.
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.
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.
To copy a recorded TV
program to DVD to
view on a home DVD
player, see "Copying
a TV program to CD/
DVD using Media
Center" on page 101.
