is highlighted, and then press

on your remote control.
In this mode, reception of live TV signals continues as before. The Digital VCR card still func-
tions as a TV tuner card. But, since there is no disk activity, there is no Time Shift buffer. You
can watch the live TV signal, select programs from the remote control, or watch a prerecorded
program. Recording of live programs or future scheduled programs operates as before; the
Time Shift buffer does not impact the recording functions.
The following features are disabled while watching the
