If you connect your components as described, you must access different Video Input Channels on your TV to see programming— whether the programming is a regular TV show, a program you saved to the Digital Media Recorder’s hard disk drive, or a disc you’re playing in the Digital Media Recorder. If you don’t know how to access Video Input Channels on your TV, go to page 16 for help. A general explanation, based on the connection shown above, follows:

To watch one program while you record another:

Tune the TV to its Input 1 channel or Vid 1 channel

Tune the Digital Media Recorder to the channel you want to record, and press RECORD.

Use the buttons on the TV (or the TV’s remote control*) to tune to the channel you want to watch — you won’t be able to pause live TV because you aren’t watching TV through the Digital Media Recorder.

To play a disc or a show you’ve recorded to the Digital Media Recorder’s hard disk drive:

Tune the TV its Input 1 channel or Vid 1 channel.

To play a videotape: Tune the TV to the VCR input channel (usually channel 3 or 4).

If you need help finding your TV’s various Video Input Channels, go to page 16.

*The remote control packed with your Digital Media Recorder is capable of being programmed to operate many brands and models of TVs and VCRs. For instructions, go to page 19.
