Digital Video Recorder (DVR)

 

The DCX3501-M set-top is equipped with an internal hard drive for DVR (Digital Video Recorder) functionality, which provides the ability to record both Standard Definition TV (SDTV) and High Definition TV (HDTV) programs. Storage time varies based on the video format and specific channel.

The DCX3501-M set-top is also equipped with an eSATA interface on the rear panel. This interface allows the connection of an external hard disk drive to increase the DVR storage capacity of the DCX3501-M. Note: your service provider must authorize your DCX3501-M for external DVR functionality.

DVR offers the ability to control your viewing experience by pausing (time shifting) live TV and providing trick playback modes (pause, fast forward, slow forward, fast rewind, slow rewind). You may experience a slight delay when switching between time-shifted and live TV.

The DCX3501-M model also includes integrated MoCA™ networking which supports whole-home DVR capabilities. This feature extends the DVR experience to DCX3200-M or other compatible non-DVR set-tops with integrated MoCA, when enabled by application software. On your non-DVR set-top you can now view your DVR recordings, playback content, and set future recordings all from another room in your home.

With the DCX3501-M set-top, you can:

Record Programming. The total hours of recorded content will vary based on the storage capacity of your DVR, the storage capacity of your specific external drive (if authorized), and type of content (digital SD or HD and encoding method, MPEG-2 or MPEG-4) being recorded.
