discarded. The programmes in the Time Shift Buffer are separated by a vertical line. The name of the TV show is displayed above the line. The
time information on both sides of the time bar indicate the start and end time of the Time Shift Buffer. The current recording time is on the
right-hand end, and the oldest recording on the left-hand end.
Navigation in the Time Shift Buffer
You can move to any position within the Time Shift Buffer and watch the recording that was stored at that time.The indicator (yellow rectangle on
the time bar) shows the playback position in the Time Shift Buffer. You can move this indicator using the
C
,
D
buttons. If the playback position
is as far on the right-hand side as it can get, you are watching the current (live) picture of the TV channel you are tuned in. In the header of the
Time Shift Buffer, you will see an aerial symbol (contrary to the HDD symbol that appears when playing back from the HDD).
The following is a short overview of the basic buttons for navigation in the Time Shift Buffer:
N

D
When you reach the left end of the time bar, the recorder will switch to normal playback speed.

When you reach the right end of the time bar, you are watching the current TV programme. It is not possible to move further to the right. In
order to do so, the recorder would have to anticipate the future programme. You can use
O
to 'catch up' with the current TV programme.

Recordings using the Time Shift Buffer
Recordings are always stored in the Time Shift Buffer first.
The following recording options are available:
•
Programmed recordings (TIMER) that will be carried out automatically at a predefined date/time
•
Direct recording of the current, live TV programme.
•
Marking of TV shows that have already been stored in the Time Shift Buffer.
You can mark recordings in the Time Shift Buffer to store them on the HDD instead of having them discarded when the Time shift Buffer period
expires. When a TV show is marked, a red marker appears on the time bar of the Time Shift Buffer. This marker indicates the recording. You
don't need to do anything else.
The DVD recorder automatically transfers a show to the HDD when:
•
the preset Time Shift Buffer period expires (the default setting is 3 hours).
•
the Time Shift Buffer is deleted ('

•
you switch to camera mode using

(switch back with the same button).
•
date/time or channel settings have changed (menu is called up).
In the case of programmed recordings, the marker is set automatically. After that, the recording is also automatically stored on the HDD. When a
red marker has been set, you do not need to do anything else. Even if you turn off the recorder with
STANDBY

, the recording will be stored
first before the DVD recorder automatically switches off.
