HARD DISK RECORDING

About hard disk recording

As you probably already know this box is equipped with a built in Personal Active Disc. This is a hard disk, similar to those in or- dinary Personal Computers (PCs). On this hard disk it is possible to record about 15-20 hours of TV and radio programmes.

To get the most out of the disk recording procedure, follow these simple tips to keep the disk well prepared for coming recordings. In this way you will avoid messages on the screen saying things like “Time available: Less than 1 hour” 5 seconds before you want to make a two hour recording from a live performance of your fa- vourite pop group; or “The current recording was stopped be- cause there was not enough space on the disk”. As we all know, those messages always appear when we least want them to.

•Make a practice to clean the disk from recordings that are no longer needed.

•Recordings that you want to keep, you can transfer to a tradi- tional analogue Video Recorder. Recordings made to the built in disk can not be digitally transferred to an external hard disk.

•A good thing to do now and then, is to erase everything from the disk (select “Erase hard disk” from the “System Configu- ration” menu.) But remember, absolutely everything will be erased.

•We suggest that you spend some time testing all functions un- til you get familiar with them. This will save you a lot of frus- tration when the moment for making and watching a record- ing becomes reality. After the practice you can just erase the disk and it will be ready to start from scratch.

It is important for you to also be aware of the following facts concerning the hard disk recording

•Only the channel whose number is shown in the display on the box can be recorded. This means, that you can not watch e.g. channel 4 and record e.g. channel 8 at the same time.

•A big benifit that the built in hard disk possess, but the ana- logue video recorder lacks, is the possibility for you to start watching the playback of a programme while the record- ing of the same programme is still in progress. This possi- bility is utilized at the “Pause recording” procedure which is described further on in this manual.

•Note! Pause recordings will not work if you are watching a programme ordered via KIOSK (Canal Digital’s pay-per- view).

•CAUTION! Unauthorized recording of TV programmes or other material may infringe the copyright and be contrary to the copyright laws.
