Changing a guide option. Highlight the option, then press the LEFT or RIGHT arrow to
change the selection displayed. Save your changes by pressing SELECT or GUIDE. To
cancel your changes, press CLEAR.
Recording a Program from the Guide
To record a program, highlight it in the guide, then press RECORD. On the transparent
screen that appears, select “Record this showing (Best Quality)” or “Season Pass & other
options” for more choices. (See page 42 for more on Season Pass recordings and page 43
for more on Recording Options.)
Recording the Program You Are Watching
You can always record the program you are watching: just press the RECORD button. On
the transparent screen that appears, select “Record this showing (Best Quality).” Select
“Season Pass & other options” for more choices, or to change the recording quality.
Recording the Saved Portion. Up to 30 minutes of the current channel’s broadcast is
always being saved, even when you are not recording a program. When you change
channels, the Recorder clears what it has saved and starts saving again on the new channel.
(So, if the saved portion is important to you, either record it or don’t change the channel.)
To record the saved portion—in addition to the rest of the program—you must choose
“Record this showing (Best Quality).” If you change the Recording Quality (by selecting
“Season Pass & other options”), the saved portion of the program won’t be recorded.
Stopping a recording. You can stop any recording in either of two ways: select the title in
Now Playing, then select “Stop Recording;” or, press the RECORD button in live TV, then
choose “Stop the current recording.”
