Creating Recording Rules
A recording rule is a set of instructions that the Digital Entertainer HD
uses to record television shows. You can create recording rules with the
EPG or by manually using the Manually add entry menu screen.
Example of a Recording Rule Using the EPG
You can use the EPG to find shows that you like, and then create a rule to
record them. For example, you can create a “record all
Law & Order ”
rule, to record any episode of Law & Order .
To do so, you need the following:
• The Electronic Program Guide (EPG), which is sold separately.
• A PC with a TV tuner. See “Setting Up a PC TV Tuner for Viewing
TV Programming” on page A-3 for a list of compatible tuners.
• The PC with the TV tuner must be running the Digital Entertainer for
Windows software.
To create a recording rule with the EPG:
1. Select Browse, and find programs to record.
2. Select the recording option that you want, such as Record All.
For example, search for Law, and then scroll to Law & Order. Select the
show, and then click Record all. The Digital Entertainer HD attempts to
record any episode of
Law & Order airing any time on any channel.
