Extend Stop Times
When a Scheduled Recording is made from the EPG, Magic TV™ will stop
recording at exactly the time shown. However, if programmes are delayed or
don’t match with the EPG data, the end of the programme may be missed.
Here you can tell Magic TV™ to stop recording all programmes later than the
scheduled time.
You can also set this time for individual programmes on the To Do List
by pressing
on a highlighted programme.
Keep Programme For
Here you can set the length of time before Magic TV™ will move a Recorded
Programme to Trash. “Forever (protected)” means that the programme cannot
be deleted until its “Keep Programme For” setting is changed. You can also set
this time for individual recordings. See section 6.8 for further information on
‘Keeping Recordings’.
Auto Standby
If Auto Standby is switched on, Magic TV™ will automatically switch
to standby after a recording has been made.

Channel Setup
Channel List
Here, you’ll see a list of all the channels currently found by Magic TV™.
If you select a channel, you will be given the option to either:
View this channel
Delete this channel
Exit
Deleting a channel will make it unavailable to view or browse on the EPG.
To restore the channel, a new channel scan will have to be performed.
Auto Channel Scan
After entering Auto Scan, you will be asked to confirm that you want to delete
all current channels. After proceeding, Magic TV™ will begin scanning for
channels. A yellow bar will represent the scanning process. The scan can
be stopped at any time and any found channels will be available to view.
When the scan has finished, Magic TV™ will jump to Live TV.
