Daily Schedule
The
Daily Schedule
lists the timers that are planned for today, the future (up to
nine days), and those that occurred in the recent past.
Use the
Daily Schedule
as described on page 74 to:
•
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. See
Timer Priorities
.
•
Review future timers, up to nine days in advance, and make changes as
necessary.
•
Review past timers to see which occurred, and the reason why one did
not, if applicable. See
Reasons Why Timers Are Skipped
.
Reasons Why Timers are Skipped
If a timer is skipped, the reason is stated on the
Timers List
.
•
Priority
- This timer had a lower priority than other events being
recorded at the time.
•
User
- A user chose to skip that timer.
•
Duplicate event
- There is already another timer set to record that
program.
•
Event exists in DVR
- The program was already recorded and can be
seen in the
DVR Events
list.
•
Not a new episode
- Used for
New Episode
timers. Currently, a
New
Episode
is one that has the current year listed in the
Program Guide
information.
•
Incorrect event
- For
Weekly
,
Daily
and
Monday-Friday
timers. If the
guide has a different event listed the timer will be skipped.For example,
the timer was set up on a Saturday for
Daily
, but the program is
broadcast only Monday-Friday, so the timer will be skipped on the
weekends.
