Need Help Recording Your TV Program?
■
Ensure that you have enough room on your hard drive to record
the programming you want. Use this table to estimate the
amount of disk space required:
Note:
Due to Windows’ FAT file system, the largest file you
can capture is 4 GB. If possible, use a NTSF formatted hard
disk drive.
■
To record a future program:
■
Ensure that the date and time on your computer is accurate.
■
Leave your computer powered on. If you have a digital cable
or satellite receiver, also leave your set-top box powered on.
■
Disable sleep/hibernate mode on your computer. Refer to
your computer’s documentation for instructions.
Note:
Recording must be scheduled at least four minutes in
advance.
■
Your computer must be connected to the Internet and WinDVR
must be set to your geographical location before you can view
current and future programming schedules.
Once you have set a schedule for recording future programs,
your computer can be disconnected from the Internet. You do
not need a live Internet connection to record programs.

Refer to your EPG Web site for help using and troubleshooting
the EPG.
