Operation Manual
7.8 Formatting the hard disk 61
At the top of the panel, you will see a message that says Turbo
Off. Turbo mode is a way of speeding up the transfer of files to
and from the digital receiver. You can click the circle to the left
of the message to turn turbo mode on or off.
Turbo mode makes transferring files faster, but the digital re-
ceiver stops responding to commands from the remote control.
If you want to use the digital receiver while transferring, or if
any scheduled recordings are due to start, you should not use
turbo mode.
NOTE
You cannot play back the recordings with a regular MPEG
player on your computer because they are formatted differ-
ently from the standard MPEG format.
Visit
http://www.videolan.org
or
http://www.elecard.com
where you can find an MPEG player able to play them back.
If you wish to author DVDs with them, visit

haenlein-software.com
where you can find a DVD authoring
program able to process them.
