Replay channels
Every show you record becomes a Replay channel and is stored in a category you choose.
Show-based and single-record channels store recordings of specific shows. Zone- and
Theme-based channels store recordings based on common Zone or keyword themes.
Understanding the difference between Show-based recordings and Zone or Theme-based
recordings is the key to making sure your ReplayTV records what you want to see most.
Guaranteed and non-guaranteed recordings
Think of recording space on your ReplayTV like a parking lot. Guaranteed recordings are
given reserved parking spaces as soon as they are scheduled. Non-guaranteed recordings
do not get reserved spaces and have to find a place to park. Non-guaranteed recordings
park in reserved spots, but they will be promptly towed if a guaranteed recording needs to
park. After all, the non-guaranteed recording was parking in the guaranteed recording’s
spot.
Recording priorities
If you have created many Replay channels, it is possible that eventually two scheduled
recordings will conflict with each other.
The following recording priorities are numbered from highest priority to lowest:
1.
Guaranteed Single-record and Show-based recordings
If a change in television schedules puts guaranteed Show-based channels into a
recording conflict with each other, the Replay channel created first will be
recorded.
