Using your PVR with the Interactive Guide
™
, you can control
live TV. Anytime you tune to a channel, the PVR begins
making a temporary recording of whatever you’re watching.
So you can
PAUSE if the phone rings, REWIND the scene
you missed and
FAST FORWARD* to skip what you don’t
want to watch. your PVR will record up to one hour of live TV
(15 minutes of hDTV)*.
TIP: Recording capacity varies depending on program source.
When recording HDTV channels, programming capacity is
significantly limited. An HDTV set is required to view programs
in high definition.
For live TV recordings, the temporary recording will be
erased if any of the following occur:
•
you turn off the PVR.
•
Watch the same channel for longer than the temporary
recording (buffer) period. Only the most recent hour of
the program (15 minutes of hD) is kept in the temporary
recording.
•
you watch more than one hour. After one hour, the PVR
removes the earlier minutes of the recording, so that only
the most recent hour is kept in the temporary storage.
•
Switch to another program on the same tuner. When you
change channels without using the
SWAP function, your
PVR begins to store the new program. It removes the
previous program you were watching from the storage.
TIP: Length of Live TV and Pause feature varies by program
source. The PVR cannot Fast Forward LIVE TV that has yet to
occur or Rewind if temporary recording is unavailable or has
been erased.
