Delayed Video (LOD
Buffer)
“Time-shifted” or “delayed” video refers
to video that has been broadcast and
saved in the LOD buffer or recorded
and is being played back from the hard
disk.
The video may be delayed by any
amount of time, from one second to 60
minutes.
In delayed video mode, you can use
DVR/VCR types of commands (pause,
fast forward, rewind and slow motion)
to control video playback.
To enter delayed video mode:
To switch the viewing mode from live
TV to delayed video, press the
REWIND, PAUSE or INSTANT
REPLAY keys.
You can also display slow motion by
pressing the PLAY key twice.
You can rewind only as far as the LOD
buffer allows.
When you change to a new channel,
the LOD buffer is cleared.
To return to live TV mode:
• Press the LIVE key

Recording a Program
You can schedule to record a single
program episode or a complete series.
In either case, the program(s) will be
recorded to the hard disk, where they
will remain available for future viewing.
• You can record two programs at
the same time, while watching a
saved program from the hard disk.
• You can watch one channel while
recording another.
• You can rewind or use other DVR/
VCR types of commands while
the program is recording without
interrupting the recording.
• If you plan to record a live
sporting event, you can extend the
recording time for the event, and
the subsequent program, beyond
the scheduled end time (in case
the game goes into overtime, for
example).
The following sections provide detailed
procedures for recording a program.
Note: Banners and dialog boxes that
are displayed while you record
programs are not saved with
the recording.
