-or leave the satellite receiver switched on, on the channel to record, program the DVD recorder, then switch it off.

Note: if you selected AV2 during step 4, you do not need to enter the start and stop times, since it is the device that is connected that triggers the start and stop of the recording at the times set via its programming menu.
