Pick Programs to Record
Recording Options include:
• Keep At Most. This option sets the maximum number of episodes to be saved—useful
for keeping only the most recent nightly news or only a few of your kids’ daily
programs. The default setting is 5. (Only appears for a repeating recording.)
• Show Type. You can select “Repeats & first run,” “First run only,” which records only
new episodes, and “All (with duplicates).” (Only appears for a repeating recording.)
• Keep Until. You can change this setting from “Space needed” (the default setting) to
“Until I delete.” (Only appears for a repeating recording.)
• Keep At Least. You can set the minimum amount of time the HD DVR keeps a
recording. The default setting is “Until space needed” (about two days), except for pay
per view events, which default to “Save until I delete.” (Only appears for an individual
recording.)
The Overtime Scheduler
TM
consists of these two options:
• Start Recording. You can choose to start recording up to ten minutes before a
program begins. The default setting is “On-time.” (This option is not available once
recording starts.)
• Stop Recording. You can set a recording to continue—for a few minutes or up to three
hours—after it’s scheduled to end. For example, you can extend the recording of a
sports event and be sure to catch the whole game—even if it goes into overtime. The
default setting is “On-time.”
