7Although this television set complies with the current DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C standards (status: August 2010), the compatibility with future­ DVB-S satellite transmissions as well as terrestrial DVB-T and DVB-C cable programmes cannot be guaranteed.

7Your television set can receive and process all analogue and non-encrypted digital TV channels. The television set is also equipped with digital and analogue receivers.

7The electronic TV guide (for digital channels only) informs you about any schedule changes at short notice, and provides an overview of all the broadcasters' schedules for the next few days. Detailed information on the individual television programmes are – when provided by the broadcasting station – are also avail- able in the electronic TV guide.

7You can connect various data media, such as an external hard drive, a USB memory stick or a digital camera, to the USB socket. Using the file browser, you can then select and play the file formats of your choice (for example, MP4, MP3 or JPEG data).

7Using the time shift function, you can quickly and easily pause a programme using the remote control and resume it at a later stage. The pro- gramme is recorded in an external data medium.

7You can record any digital TV channels you choose.

The TV channels are converted by the televi- sion and saved on an external data medium which is connected to the USB socket.

The saved programmes can be called up and played from the archive on the external data medium at any time.

You can also play a programme from the archive while recording another.

More information on recording and playing TV programmes can be found on page 33.

7Devices that contain and serve video, music or image files are called Server. This television receives video, music and image files from the server through home network, allowing you to access and play such media even when your television is located in a different room then the server. A DLNA compatible device such as a PC, mobile phone, NAS or a NAS-like (Net- work attached storage) device which operates as a DMS (Digital Media Server) is required in order to use home network.

7You can also listen to the internet radios with vTuner feature, provided that the local network to which your television is connected can con- nect to internet.
