WATCHING RECORDED SHOWS – continued

To skip ahead 30 seconds at a time:

Press the Jump Ahead button on the remote or SKIP on the keyboard.

To jump back a few seconds and watch something you just saw:

Press the Instant Replay button on your remote control or keyboard.

Your receiver jumps back and replays the last 7 seconds of what you were just watching.

ERASING A RECORDED PROGRAM

Programs are saved on your receiver’s hard drive until you erase them—or until another program records over them if the hard drive runs low on storage space. To free up space for recording additional programs, you can erase programs you’ve watched.

To erase a recorded program:

1Select the program in the My Shows list and press OK. The following screen appears:

2Select Erase and press OK. The program is erased.

TV CONTROLS

Let’s say you’re watching a ball game and the umpire makes a controversial call. With regular TV, all you can do is loudly question his eyesight and continue watching the game. But your RCA®-DIRECTVReceiver with UltimateTV® Service lets you create your own instant replay, jumping back a few seconds and watching the play again and again. You can even go back to the beginning

of the play, freeze the action, and watch it in slow motion to figure out what really happened.

To use the features described in this section, you must subscribe to DIRECTV® programming and the UltimateTV Service.

Instant Replay is only one of the TV controls offered by the RCA®-DIRECTVReceiver with UltimateTV® Service. You can also do the following:

Pause a show and resume watching it later

Reverse to an earlier point in a show

Fast-forwardto a later point in a show

Jump Ahead several seconds to skip a portion of a show

The controls described here apply to both live and recorded or paused material, with the exception of fast-forward and Jump Ahead, which apply only to recorded or paused material.
