INSTANT REPLAY

Have you ever watched a program and seen something you wished you could see again? Maybe you just witnessed a spectacular sports play, or perhaps you couldn’t hear a line of dialog in a movie. Your receiver gives you your own Instant Replay.

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.

REVERSE

The Instant Replay button is handy for jumping back several seconds. But what if you want to rewatch the last few minutes of the current program? No problem. Your receiver lets you “rewind” to an earlier point in the program you’re watching.

To go back and watch something you just saw:

Press the REVERSE button on your remote control or keyboard.

Your receiver moves backward in the program, to the point where you started watching it.

A Reverse tab appears in the upper-right corner of the screen, and a green bar appears at the bottom of the screen, showing how far back you’ve gone. A Pause tab appears in the upper right corner of the screen when the receiver reaches the beginning of the current viewing session.

The REVERSE button takes you to the point where you tuned to the current channel.

When you press the REVERSE button, the program plays in reverse, at twice its normal speed. Press REVERSE a second time to reverse at 15 times normal speed; press it a third time to reverse at 60 times normal speed; and press once more to reverse at 300 times normal speed. The reverse speed is displayed in a tab in the upper-right corner of the screen.

When you press the REVERSE button, you can see the program playing in reverse. When you reach the beginning of the part you want to see again, you can play it back.

To watch a program after you’ve reversed it:

At any time during the reverse process, press the PLAY button on your remote control or keyboard.

The program plays back from that point.

FORWARD

After you use REVERSE and PLAY to watch an earlier portion of a show, you might want to fast-forward to a later point, or all the way to the end of the reversed segment.

To fast-forward to a later point in a reversed or recorded program:

While the program is playing, press the FORWARD button on your remote control or keyboard.

Your receiver fast-forwards the program.

A Fast-forward tab appears in the upper-right corner of the screen, and a green bar appears at the bottom of the screen, showing how far forward you’ve gone.

Press PLAY at any time to play the program.

When you press the FORWARD button, the program fast-forwards at twice its normal speed. Press FORWARD a second time to forward at 15 times normal speed; press it a third time for 60 times normal speed; and press once more for 300 times normal speed. The fast-forward speed is displayed in a tab in the upper-right corner of the screen.
