RECORDING A PROGRAM TO YOUR RECEIVER

Your RCA®-DIRECTVReceiver with UltimateTV® Service lets you record up to 35 hours of programs onto its built-in hard drive.

N O T E

Recording capacity varies, depending on the type of program

being recorded.

 

Once a program is recorded, you can watch it at any time, then erase it from the receiver’s hard drive to free up space to record future programs. If the hard drive fills up, the oldest recorded programs will automatically be erased to make room for new ones.

To record the program that’s currently showing:

Press the RECORD button on your remote control or keyboard.

A REC tab briefly appears on the screen, indicating that the current program is being recorded.
