Changing Autotune Options/Canceling an Autotune

Once you have scheduled a program to autotune, you can change the autotune options or cancel the autotune by selecting the program in the Guide or the To Do List (press LIST); then, select the Autotune item in the left menu, and follow the onscreen instructions to change the program’s options or cancel the Autotune completely.

You can change the following Autotune options:

•For all programs, you can extend Autotune start and stop times (for example, start 1 minute before the program; stop 5 minutes after the scheduled end of the program).

•For programs with multiple episodes, you can select whether to Autotune first run programs and repeats or just first runs.

Recording to VCR

To record a program on your VCR, make sure you’ve connected your VCR properly to your DIRECTV Receiver, then set up your VCR to record at the same time as a scheduled autotune and you’re set. See your VCR User’s Guide for information on how to set it up for scheduled or manual recording.
