■
Recording and playback of television programmes is only
possible with digital television channels (DVB-S, DVB-T and
DVB-C).
■
The digital television channels (DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C)
you are able to record and playback also depends on the
broadcaster.
■
Recording and playback of programmes,
as well as the time shift function, can only be carried out
using an external data medium (hard drive or USB stick).
■
Recordings can be made with most data media on the mar-
ket. However, we cannot guarantee operation for all data
media.
■
If a programme was recorded on an external data medium,
it can only be played back on your television set. The play-
back of these programmes is not possible on other devices.
■
If you send your television to be repaired and hardware
components need to be replaced, you might not be able to
play the recordings again on the repaired television.
■
Reception for SKY broadcasting service is currently only pos-
sible in Germany with a suitable set-top box or suitable CA
module.
■
Grundig does not accept liability for any loss of saved data
on an external data medium.

The USB Multimedia Player might not support some re-
corded events. For proper playback please use the PRnP

Recording a programme on the external data
medium can be disabled by the broadcaster.
If the message »URI* protected! PVR function is blocked«
appears on the screen, then recording or timeshift is re-
stricted (one recording possible) or disabled (recording not
possible) by the broadcaster.

If you record and save a programme on the archive of an
external data medium, playback can be restricted.
The broadcaster can allow you to view this programme one
or more times, but it may onlyv be available for a certain
period of time.
■
Programmes not suitable for minors will require the input of
a PIN number immediately before recording starts. If this au-
thorisation is not given, the recording may not start.
■
Copying a programme from a digital television channel
onto a video or DVD recorder using the »
Av­ 1
« socket
(analogue picture/sound signal) can also be restricted by
the broadcaster. Prerequisite is that your device supports the
copying function.
″pausing”­time­shift­programmes
You can pause the programme you are watching. This is a use-
ful function, for example if the telephone rings while you are
watching a film and you do not want to miss anything.
A freeze-frame display of the last scene appears
on the screen and the programme is recorded
in the time shift memory of the external data medium.
In time shift mode you can record a maximum of 60 minutes of

recording­programmes
You can record programmes. The data for these programmes
is recorded on an external data medium and this archive is
administered via the television.
You need 44 MB till 110 MB of memory ca-
pacity on the external data medium for
1 minute recording time.
While recording, you can watch another programme from the
archive.
It is only possible to change the program position if the pro-
grams are broadcast on the same frequency (DVB-T) or if they
are on the same transponder (DVB-S). It is also possible to
change the source during recording to an external device, e.g.
HDMI1, AV1, etc., except the "USB" source.
