On this menu you can make settings for your recordings and for
time-shifting.
PVR Setup
Use the

buttons to select whether automatic time-shifting is
enabled or disabled. When you select “On” the receiver automatically
(in the background) starts recording the programme you are viewing as
soon as you switch to the channel. Then, in manual record mode, you
can press the
button to choose whether to record the programme
from the current time or from the time you switched to the channel. The
advantage of this is that you do not lose the part of the programme you
were watching before you decided to record it! When you select “Off”
you can only record the programme as from the point you press Record,
and lose the portion of the programme before you started recording.
Automatic Time-Shift
Use the

buttons here to select the size of the background buffer
the receiver makes available for time-shift recording. You can choose
between 1 and 8 GB, in 1 GB increments. The receiver indicates in
brackets after the GB figure how long this will enable it to background-
record for.
Time-Shift Buffer Size
Use the

buttons to select whether hard disk management is
controlled by the receiver (“Automatic”) or by you (“Manual”).
If you select “Automatic”, the receiver automatically deletes older
recordings when it reaches the maximum disk capacity, so as to make
room for planned recordings. (You can, however, protect recordings
from being deleted by the receiver, as described in the “Recording List”
section under “Edit Recordings” - “Deletion Block”.
If you select “Manual” you must always ensure there is sufficient hard
disk capacity yourself. If the available disk capacity falls below five
percent, a warning appears the next time you restart the unit.
