DVR 

With Hotwire IPTV DVR (Digital Video Recorder) subscription service, it’s easy to record your favorite 
show or series and watch them whenever you want as well as pause and rewind live TV. 

Hotwire has an easy access series recording feature, simply highlight a program in your on-screen  
program guide and press record twice. Record and control one or two shows at once. Hotwire DVR  
service gives you TV on your terms. For detailed instructions refer to the DVR section in this manual.

Rentals

On Demand is the most convenient way to watch programs, movies, high-definition programming and 
more. Many programs are offered for no additional charge. Pick a show from our library of thousands — 
like cable shows, kids’ programs, music videos or the latest movies — and watch it whenever. You can 
pause, rewind and fast-forward any On Demand movie or program all at your control. This feature  
is another way of accessing “VOD” (Video On Demand)  

My Library 

Is your storage library that serves multiple purposes. If you rented a movie you can go into the “Video” 
option inside of the vault and access the movie.  

If you have purchased any PPV Events you select the PPV Events option and that will allow you to ac-
cess the PPV movies and events you have purchased. 

If you have subscribed to any Sports Packages you may select the “Sports Packages” option and you 
will have access to this package. 

If you have set any reminders you are able to check in the “Reminders” option to see any reminders 
you have set so that you won’t miss watching a live event. 

Lastly, the Messages option will display updates or any changes on your system. You will receive a 
message when your DVR is approaching its maximum capacity.  Do not ignore this message as you will 
lose any recorded programming that is not “locked”.  If all of your recorded programming is locked and 
the DVR is full, your scheduled recording will not take place.  To avoid this, get in the habit of deleting 
what you have viewed or moving viewed programming to a removable hard drive to save it.

Packages

This displays any programming you have subscribed to that has the “On Demand” feature  
(Example: Showtime.)
