Quality
The Quality setting allows you to select any of the four preset recording quality settings for
your Group recording. All shows in the Group are recorded with the same settings. You can
also use the Custom record setting.
Size
Each Group can be set to a user-defined size. The size you select determines the approximate
number of shows that will be available for you to watch, assuming that there is disk space
available. It also helps set the relative size balance when you have multiple recording Groups
defined. Digital VCR will try to keep the relative size of all your defined Groups intact.
For example, when recording a half-hour sitcom, using a setting of 90 minutes would allow
three shows to be recorded. The size is edited in thirty-minute units.
Once you have your Groups set up you have the option of entering Standby Mode. Recordings
will take place in the background.
For more information about Standby, see “Standby” on page 83.
