Recording and Playback

At the top of the panel, you will see a message that says

Turbo

Off

. Turbo mode is a way of speeding up the transfer of files to

and from the digital receiver. You can click the circle to the left
of the message to turn turbo mode on or off.

Turbo mode makes transferring files faster, but the digital re-
ceiver stops responding to commands from the remote control.
If you want to use the digital receiver while transferring, or if
any scheduled recordings are due to start, you should not use
turbo mode.

NOTE

You cannot play back the recordings with a regular MPEG
player on your computer because they are formatted dif-
ferently from the standard MPEG format. Visit

http://

www.videolan.org

or

http://www.elecard.com

where you

can find an MPEG player able to play them back.

If

you wish to author DVDs with them, visit

http://www.

haenlein-software.com

where you can find a DVD author-

ing program able to process them.

Formatting the hard disk

If a new hard drive is installed, it must be formatted because
you can neither record nor use time-shift with an unformatted
hard disk.

You can delete permanently all contents stored in the hard
drive by formatting it. If you wish to do that, select the

In-

stallation

>

Format Hard Disk

menu, then you get asked for

confirmation. If you select

Yes

, formatting will start.
