.--Show-based Replay Channels--,
You can set the Hard Disk Recorder to record a recurring
show (daily or weekly) in the same time slot on the same
channel.
Show-based recordings should be used to create Replay
Channels that contain episodes of your favodte shows.
They can be created from first run network channels or
from syndicated channels. If you don't know what channel
a particular show is on or want to capture all episodes
regardless of what channel if is aired on, you can create a
Theme-based Replay channel using the name of the
show as the theme. For example, a Show-based channel
created from "The X-Files" on Sunday night at 9PM will
only record episodes that broadcast at or around that time
on that particular channel. A Theme-based channel with
the theme of "The X-Files" will record any episode of The
k,,X-Filas from any channel on at any time.

_--Theme-based Replay Channels-_
If you create a Theme-based channel using the keyword
"Friends," the Hard Disk Recorder will look for and record aft
programs with the word "Friends" on all channels--new
Fdeods episodes and reruns, even =Barney & Friends." "
Theme-based channels can be created using any theme
that you are interested in. For example, an actor, director or
category name can be used. The theme you create will
dictate the shows that are recorded. Theme-based channels
are great for recording shows that change time slots a lot.
By creating a Theme-based channel, all episodes are
recorded, regardless of what time they air. (Of course, you
have to have enough recording space allocated to _pur
channel.) Show-based channels take pdodty over Theme-
based channels if there is a time conflict. Theme-based
channels are lots of fun--you never know what the Hard
Disk Recorder will find end record for you.
