Control Live TV
Using your DVR and your Digital Cable Remote, you can control live TV. Anytime you tune to a channel, the DVR begins making a temporary recording of whatever you’re watching. So you can PAUSE if the phone rings, REWIND a scene you missed and FAST FORWARD to skip what you don’t want to watch. Your DVR will record up to one hour of live TV+.

The live TV recording is not a permanent recording, unless you actually save it to the DVR’s hard drive. For live TV recordings, the temporary recording (buffer) will be erased if any of the following occur:

• You turn off your DVR.
• You watch the same channel for longer than the temporary recording (buffer) period. Only the most recent hour of the program (15 minutes of HD) is kept in the temporary recording.
• You switch to another program on the same tuner. When you change channels without using the SWAP function, your DVR begins to store the new program. It removes the previous program you were watching from the storage. (See SWAP section for additional information.)
• You watch more than one hour. After one hour, the DVR removes the earlier minutes of the recording, so that only the most recent hour is kept in the temporary storage.

+Recording buffer (temporary storage) for each tuner will record as long as you stay tuned to the same channel.
