You cannot set an
impulse recording from the
buffer. The programme will
only record from when you
press REC, ie. it will be a
partial recording.
The PVR Recording Error
icon indicates a signal problem
on the channel being recorded.
It may also indicate an error
with the tuner being used for
the recording. (Tuner 2 + 3 are
used for recordings).
