:: Controlling Live Television
The moment you turn on ReplayTV and your TV, ReplayTV automatically begins recording into a temporary space. ReplayTV will
continue to record even if you delay the broadcast by using the pause, rewind, or Instant Replay features. Recording only stops
when you change channels and begin watching a different show. The temporary space is then cleared and ReplayTV starts record-
ing again.
Pausing live TV and Recorded Shows
ReplayTV’s pause feature lets you attend to interruptions without missing a moment of your favorite show. You can pause what-
ever you’re watching, whether it’s a live television broadcast or a recorded show in the Replay Guide. When you pause a live
broadcast, ReplayTV will continue recording it on the hard drive, so you won’t miss a single moment. ReplayTV will remain
paused until it has run out of free space on its hard drive.
1 Press Pause on the ReplayTV remote control.
After you press Pause, an on-screen message will appear to indicate the remaining pause time available.
2 Press Play to continue playing the program from the point you paused.
or
3 Press Return to Live to return to the live broadcast.
Pause options include:
• Press Display to view program information.
• Press Exit to remove the on-screen display.
• Press FAST FORWARD to use the frame advance feature.
Using Rewind and Fast Forward
ReplayTV gives you the power to Rewind or Fast Forward through both live and recorded programs. When using Rewind and Fast
Forward, remember how ReplayTV works: ReplayTV is always recording, but recording will stop, and then start again, whenever
you change channels. You cannot rewind a program to a point before you started watching it, nor can you fast forward a program to
a point beyond the live broadcast.
To use Rewind while watching a show :
1 Press Rewind for 1x rewind.
2 Press Rewind again for 2x rewind.
3 Press Rewind again for 4x rewind.
4 Press Rewind again for 16x rewind.
5 Press Rewind again for 20x rewind.
