The DVR function (

ecorder) means you no longer have to use
an external recorder (e.g. video or DVD recorder) to record programmes, since you
can use this function to record them to a connected USB storage device.
The recording capacity thus depends on the volume of data in the broadcast
material and the size of the storage medium (USB memory).
When recording, the teletext data and subtitles (where broadcast) are also
recorded as well as the actual audio and video data. You can access this
during subsequent playback, as described in Sections 8.8, 8.10 and 9.11 in
your instruction manual.
11.1 DVR recording
Before starting a DVR recording, please define which storage medium
should be used as a recording medium as outlined in Section 13.4.1 in your
instruction manual.
The following recording modes are available for DVR recording:
1. Instant Recording
Select this type of recording to immediately record the programme currently being
broadcast at the push of a button.
2. Timer-Controlled Recording
This function is used to switch your digital receiver on and off to record the
selected programme onto the recording medium while you are out. The timer
can be either manually programmed or automatically programmed via the EPG
function.
3. Timeshift Recording
Timeshift recording enables time-shifted TV viewing. You can start to play back a
programme while it is still recording (= timeshifting).
Note that the DVR recording functions are only ever available for the
currently set channel. Simultaneous recording/timeshift of one channel and
playback of another channel (twin mode) is not possible.
