Using your Fiber TV service

Quick tip: When not in use for four hours, the digital receiver will automatically enter standby mode to conserve energy�
But don't worry, your scheduled recordings will not be interrupted�

HIGH DEFINITION TV

High Definition (HD) is the only way to experience a true widescreen
picture that's up to 10 times better than regular cable TV� And, with
5�1 Dolby ® Digital sound, HD is a treat for your ears as well�
All North State digital receivers are HD-read� You'll
find the HD channels between 1000 and 1435.

MANAGING LIVE TV FEEDS

Fiber TV supports up to six TVs and delivers five HD and two SD TV feeds to your household. A TV feed can be a live TV
show, a Video On Demand program or a Pay-Per-View (PPV) event. If you have two or more TVs tuned to the same live
TV program, you'll only be using one live TV feed� Also, watching programs that have already been recorded on your DVR
doesn't use a live feed�
For example, you can do one of the following:
• Watch six different live TV programs, five in HD and one in SD
• Record one live program on your DVR and watch six other live programs
• Record two live programs on your DVR and watch five live programs
The number of live HD programs you can watch at once depends on the service in the area you live� All Fiber TV homes
can watch at least five live TV program in HD and two in SD (standard definition) at the same time. Depending on the
service availability at your home, you may be able to watch two live TV programs in HD and a third in standard definition.
If you try to watch or record more live TV programs than you have available feeds, your Fiber TV service will present you
with options to select the programs that you wish to watch or record. For example, if three live TV programs are being
watched and a fourth TV is turned on to watch another program, you will be prompted to choose which programs you want
to continue to watch or record� If you choose to interrupt a program on another TV, a message will be displayed on both
affected TVs� With your Fiber TV DVR, while the live TV feeds are being used to watch or record live programs, you can
watch up to four recorded programs on your other TVs� Viewing a recorded program does not use a live TV feed since the
program is stored on your DVR�
Quick tip: Turning off one of your digital receivers will free up a live TV feed�
