Controlling Live TV

THE BUFFER

When you start watching a show, your KUDZU Media Player will start storing it in 
temporary memory, called a buffer� The amount of temporary memory varies, but it is 
never less than 30 minutes for standard definition or 10 minutes for HDTV�

TV Roaming

With TV Roaming, you can pause a show in one room and resume it in another� 
Once you press pause, if you switch to another room and choose to watch the 
same show, it automatically plays at the point you left off�
