3.5 Time Shift Function
This DVB-T receiver presents a function called
“Time Shift” which allows recording
of TV program onto a digital storage medium (e.g. USB stick or external hard disc,
not supplied). You may then watch the program at a later time that is more
convenient to you. Want to put the television on pause? It is now possible with the
“Time Shift” function, which records the TV program during your phone call or your
coffee break. With
“Time Shift”, you will not miss anything anymore!

Note on Use of the Time Shift Function
The
Time Shift
function requires a high data transfer rate between the USB
device and the unit. Indeed, a recording and a (deferred) playback
simultaneously take place on the USB device. Certain USB sticks, even some
new USB 2.0 devices, may lead to shaky image or choppy sound. If you
encounter this problem, it is necessary to change the USB device. External hard
drives, self-powered by mains, provide the highest transfer rates and allow you to
use the
Time Shift
function optimally.
In case of recording quality problems or playback problems such as choppy or
blocked image, you may also try to format your USB device by using the
Formatting function of this unit only (see “Formatting your USB device”).
