About Split Programmes
Movies and other programmes that are split
into 2 or more parts are called Split
Programmes. If you set the timer for one part
of a Split Programme, the other parts that
start within 3 hours are automatically
recorded. For example, if the first half is set
to be recorded, the last half will be recorded
automatically.
To use this function, set “EPG Link” to “On”
(default) in step 4 above.
