Using Live Pause
◆
While you are watching a TV programme, you can pause it at any moment you want - just press
pause
on your remote control.
The TV picture and sound ‘freeze’, and your box starts recording the programme.
◆
When you want to continue watching the programme from the Live Pause point, press
pause
again, or press
play
.
A symbol briefly displays on-screen (see page 23). This shows the number of minutes you are ‘behind’
the actual live TV programme.
While you are watching the Live Pause recording, you can use
pause
,
play
,
fast forward
and
rewind
to move through the recording. Symbols display on your TV screen to show you what is
happening (see page 23). If you rewind back to the start of the recording, the picture freezes. If you
fast forward to the end of the recording, your box takes you back to normal TV viewing.
While you are watching the Live Pause recording, your box continues recording the programme until
it finishes. However, you can press
VIASAT
at any point to stop Live Pause and resume normal TV
viewing. When you stop Live Pause, the recording is deleted.
If you change channel, or launch an interactive application, this will also stop and delete the Live Pause
recording.
Using other VIASAT on-screen features while you are using Live Pause
While you are using Live Pause, you can use the channel banner (see page 18) to find out what is
showing now and later. However, you cannot display extra information (see page 19) about other
programmes - you can only display information for the Live Pause programme.
While you are using Live Pause, you cannot use the EPG, Ticket, iTV or your Planner. If you want to
use these you must stop (exit) Live Pause.
Note
When you use Live Pause your box records the programme,
but it is not added to your Planner
. This
means, once you return to normal TV, or launch an interactive application, the Live Pause recording
is deleted. To record the programme to your Planner, to watch it in the future, press the
record
button (see page 19).
