28.5 Delayed television viewing (Time shift)
Only possible with an external hard disk connected via USB.
The TV set stores the recordings in temporary digital storage (time shift buffer).
The temporary digital storage is sufficient for recording approx. 45-150 min min (SD) and
30-90 min (HD=HDTV programs). This information only represents approximate values,
which can vary depending on the volume of data in the recording.
• Pause the program with the key .
The program is recorded in the temporary storage.
The name of the “paused” program appears in the upper left corner of the screen. The green
key
can be used to reveal the status display, which gives you information about the
current position in time shift mode. The time since the program was “paused” or alternati-
vely recorded (10:15:00 in the example) is shown on the left below the bar display.
• Press the key again to continue watching the paused and recorded program.
• Press the blue button to open the status display.
• Press the button or several times briefly to skip ahead in playback by
+1 minute or to rewind by -20 second increments.
• Press and hold the button to double the speed of these functions. Repeat this to
rewind or fast-forward the recording at up to 32x normal speed.
The time since the program was “paused” (in the example the program was paused
10:15 min. ago) is shown on the left next to the bar display. The time that the replay lags
behind the live broadcast is shown below the bar display (03:25 min in the example).
