Pause Buffer
The Pause buffer is space on your hard disk where video is stored
during the Pause mode. The maximum amount of time which your TV
program can be delayed is dependent upon how much storage space
you have set for the Pause buffer.

Changing channels
You can change channels by using the Channel Up or Channel Down
buttons on the WinTV. You can type a channel number (for example:
27) and WinTV will tune to that channel. If the entered channel does
not exist, you will see a black window.
You can also right click in the Current TV channel box, where you will
see a list of channels. Or type letters (for example: BBC) to access to
the list of the channels including these letters.
TV Mode
When you click the Full screen TV button, TV will appear full
screen on your PC monitor. When finished watching TV full screen,
click your right mouse button in the TV window. If you see video with
a black box around it, click the Pref button then click TV mode tab.
Check the box which says “Allow resolution change”.
"Always on top" Mode
The WinTV application will remain in view over any other applica-
tions even if it is not selected. To turn on, click the Always on top but-
ton. It will turn green. To turn off, click this button again.
A convenient way to use Always-on-top is to make the TV window in
the no-title mode small, and to make the TV window in the title mode
larger. Then you can switch from a small window to a larger one by
clicking the right mouse button.
Pref button
Click the
Pref button
to open the preferences menu:
View:
These are the settings for the On Screen Display of the TV
channel and Audio Volume, where you can enable Close Captions (if
supported in your system configuration), plus controls for the Toolbar
mode (Title mode), NoToolbar mode (No Title) and Full Screen (TV
mode).
Movies:
Here is where you configure some video and audio settings.
You can set the movie record directory (DVCR Record File Path).
Snapshot:
Set the size of your captured images, plus single or two
field captures for capturing motion or still image video.
Audio:
Your audio settings are configured here.
Menu Button
Click the Menu button to open the TV setup menu. Here is the main
control bar for TV channels, and duplicate controls for other functions:
Suite-Manager:
Configure the TV tuner (scanning, naming, channel
pre set, etc..) and setting up favourite channel lists.
Configuration:

View:

Position indicator shows halfway, it means that half of the Replay
Buffer is filled. If you find you cannot Pause as many minutes as you
would like, increase the size of the Replay Buffer.
While in Pause mode, the A/V stream is always saved in the Replay
Buffer. To stop saving the A/V stream in the Replay Buffer, you must
exit the Pause mode by clicking
TV mode
.
Replay
While in the Pause mode, hitting the
Replay
button acts like the
Instant Replay you see on TV broadcast sporting events: the
audio/video goes back in time and you repeat what you have previ-
ously seen. Each click of the Replay button causes audio/video to go
back 10 seconds. For example, if you want to repeat the audio/video
you saw 10 seconds ago, you would click the Replay button once. If
you want to see the video you saw one minute ago, you would need
to click the Replay button six times.
For extended replay times, you might find it more convenient to grab
the Video Position indicator control bar and move it to the left. Once
you let the control bar go, audio/video starts to play (it might take a
few seconds for the WinTV application to start playing).
You might have to move the Video Position indicator to the left and
right to find the desired spot to start replaying audio/video.
While Replaying, your audio/video program continues to be recorded
in the Replay Buffer. Therefore, if you have clicked the Replay button 3
times (so that you are replaying the audio/video seen 30 seconds
ago), the video you see in the WinTV window will be 30 seconds
behind the live program.
Skip Ahead
Clicking the
Skip
button will skip the video ahead 10 seconds.
Rewind
Clicking the Rewind button while playing video will rewind the
recorded video. Clicking the Rewind button again will continue the
playing.
Slow Motion
Clicking the Slow Motion button while playing video will play in
Slow Motion. Clicking the Slow Motion button again, will continue
playing normally.
Fast Forward
Clicking the Fast Forward button one time will fast forward your
video at 2X speed. Clicking the Fast Forward button two times will fast
forward your video at 8X speed.
N
ote: if you plug the device into a different USB socket, you
will need to reinstall the WinTV-USB2-Stick driver, but you
will not need to reload any WinTV applications.
Plug your TV antenna into the WinTV’s TV Connector.
