Timers and Recordings
Timer Options
The Timer Options screen lets you set the following (not used on all options screens):
•
Protect Event—to prevent your programs from being erased when the DVR fills up.
•
Set Resolution—to set the timer to record only HD or only SD programs.
Note: When setting DishPASS timers for programs available in both HD and SD, by
default, the receiver will automatically select the HD program for recording.
•
Set Frequency—to record only new episodes of a program. By default, all episodes
of a DishPASS event will be recorded.
•
Set Channel—to select a specific channel. When setting manual timers, you select a
channel from a scrolling list of all channels in your guide.
•
Start Early—to begin a timed recording a few minutes earlier than its scheduled start.
•
End Late—to continue recording after the program’s scheduled ending time.
•
Set as System Default—to use the Start Early and End Late settings for this event as
the new defaults for future event timers.
•
Maximum Recorded Events—to automatically delete the oldest unprotected
recordings after a specified number of them are accumulated for this particular timer.
Note: This option is especially valuable for certain DishPASS timers, which might
otherwise fill up your DVR storage with too many episodes of a single program.

Review today's timers. You can choose to skip a scheduled timer, or restore a timer
that was not planned to occur, perhaps because of a conflict with another program.
