HARD DISK RECORDING
Save a recording as Erasable or Permanent
To avoid that a Pause or Normal recording will be erased, it is a
good idea to change its property from erasable to Permanent.
Default property for a pause recording
When a pause recording is created, in the List of recordings it will
automatically get the extension (......Pause) at the end of its
name.
The number of pause recordings in the List of recordings will be
kept constant to the limit you have defined in “Saved Pause Re-
cordings”, ref. to page 52. In practice, this means that pause re-
cordings are continuously erased to keep that limit.
Default property for a normal recording
A recording created the normal way has no extension. This
means that it is erasable, but will remain on the disk until it is full.
When the disk space is not enough for a new recording, also
these recordings (without any extension) will be erased.
How to change the property to erasable or permanent
• Select a recording from the List of Recordings and press OK.
• Immediately below the name of the menu “Handle Record-
ing”, the current property for the recording is always visible.
• Step to line 6.
• By pressing the OK button you can now change the property
between erasable and permanent and vice versa. The valid
property will immediately be visible below the “Handle re-
cording” name. The text “Perm.” within the brackets
means Permanent, and no text means Erasable.
Set parental lock
When you want to lock a recording, select this alternative and you
will be asked to enter your access code. After entering the code,
the recording is locked. To watch it you must enter the code again.
(The code is the same as for the Parental Control.)
The event property of a recording
will always be shown here.
Summarize
A recording can have one of the following three characteristics:
1 A pause recording will always be automatically erased in or-
der not to exceed the value you once have decided. This type
of recording has the extension “Pause” at the end of its name
in the List of recordings.
2 A recording can also be erasable and automatically deleted, but
not until the whole disk is filled upp with recordings. This type
has no extension.
3 The third type of recording has the extension “Perm” at the
end of its name. This one must always be manually erased.
