Now you can pause and rewind live TV – just one of the benefi ts of having a PVR from Rogers. Control live TV, record
one program while watching another on a different channel or use the Picture-In-Picture feature to watch two shows
at the same time. It’s just another way that Rogers gives you full control of your viewing experience.
While you’re watching a program, the Rogers PVR stores a digital copy. If you decide to pause or rewind the program
you’re watching, the PVR keeps recording for up to an hour so you won’t miss anything.
