The Explorer DVR saves this information
so that it can record episodesas they are
broadcast.
Save Latest Options
When scheduling a recording of all episodes,
you can choose to save the 2, 3, 4, or 5 most
recent episodes. Or, you can save every episode
until you cancel the recordings or run out of
storage space.
For example, let’s say that you choose to save the 2
most recent episodes of a program that is broadcast
every weeknight Monday through Friday. When the
Explorer DVR records the program on Wednesday,
it automatically deletes the program it recorded on
Monday. So the Tuesday and Wednesday recordings
are now saved. Then, on Thursday, the Thursday
episode will be recorded, the Tuesday recording will
be erased, and so on.
