EPG Grabbing Time
Select here the time at which the receiver's EPG data should be updated (the EPG updating must be
set to “SI”). Since updating can take up to 75 minutes it is recommended that the updating time should
be during the night when the receiver is not being used. The receiver (which must be in standby
mode) switches itself on out of standby mode and updates the EPG data for speci
fi
c channels in the
following sequence:
1. All channels for whose broadcasts there are repeating timers saved in the EPG
2. All channels from the overall channel list up to slot 50 (apart from the channels already covered by
point 1)
3. All channels which appear on a favourites list (apart from the channels already covered by points 1
and 2)
The updating will be performed by the receiver for a maximum period of 75 minutes. EPG data that do
not get updated within that time will no longer be updated.
After updating the data, the receiver switches back to the standby mode. Scheduled recordings do not
affect this; the receiver then carries out the update automatically later when recording is
fi
nished.
Start View (EPG)
Select here the view that you generally want to see at the start of the EPG. You can choose between the
“Current” view and the “Preview (programme listings)” view.
Pre-Recording time
Select here the number of minutes before the time set in the EPG at which the recording should start.
You can choose a value between one minute and 30 minutes, in one minute increments. The recording
will start that number of minutes before the due time. This allows a contingency for small variations in
transmission times.
Post-Recording time
Select here the number of minutes after the time set in the EPG for which the recording should run on.
You can choose a value between one minute and 30 minutes, in one minute increments. The recording
will stop that number of minutes after the due time. This allows a contingency for small variations in
transmission times.
