If a multifeed programme is provided on the current service,
the multifeed symbol (

) will be marked on the information

box. Press the

button, then available video tracks will be

listed. Once you select one, it will be presented. At this time,
you have to press the

button once more to select audio

tracks.

5.5

Using time shift

You can pause and resume a live television programme, and

even rewind and replay it. When you are watching a pro-
gramme and you miss something, you can rewind and replay
it. Or when your attention is needed elsewhere, you can pause
it and resume it a short time later without losing any of it.

When you do this, you are no

longer watching the live pro-
gramme, instead you are watch-
ing a delayed presentation of it.

This is called time shifted tele-
vision. Then, you can skip com-

mercials until you catch up to the
live broadcast.

In order to use the time shift
feature, the

Time Shifting

option

must be set to

Enable

. See §

3.6

.

When enabled, the digital receiver will keep as much as one

hour recording buffer of current service by utilizing the hard
disk drive storage. The buffer will reset each time you change
to another service.

With time shift enabled, the following operations are possible:

• To go back in time, hold down the

button; to go

forward, hold down the

button. The progress bar is

displayed momentarily with a preview window.

• You can navigate using the progress bar, refer to §
