Use the DishDVR Features

On-Demand Recording

You can record a program on now or a future program to watch later, or you can keep your recording.

You can pause, go back to play, reverse, skip back, fast forward, or skip ahead through a recorded program.

You can also use slow motion forward and backward, and frame advance and reverse while using the DishDVR’s auto recording feature.

You can play back a program you already recorded and record a new program at the same time.

For more information, see page 62.

Auto Recording and On-Demand Recording at the Same Time

You can pause, go back to watch, reverse, skip back through, fast forward, or skip ahead through a “live” program and record that program at the same time. For more information, see page 66.

Use Auto Recording

Turn the receiver on and tune it to a channel. Then you can use the remote control’s DishDVR buttons.

Note: When you press any one of these buttons, you’ll see a small sign on the TV screen.

Press the PAUSE button to pause the program. Press this button again to watch the program from where it paused.

Note: For a “live” program, the on-screen pause timer shows how long you’ve paused the program. If you’ve paused the program

more than once, the pause timer shows the total time you’ve paused. If you pause after you reverse or forward, the pause timer shows how far you’re behind the “live” program.

Press the BACK button once to reverse the program four times as fast as normal play. Press the BACK button twice to reverse at 15 times normal speed, three times to reverse at 60 times normal speed, and four times to reverse at 300 times normal speed. The on-screen bar shows how far you’ve gone.

Press the PAUSE button and then press the BACK button to reverse the program in slow motion. Press the BACK button once to reverse the program 1/4 the speed as normal play. Press the BACK button twice to reverse at normal speed.

Press the FWD (“FORWARD”) button once to forward the program four times as fast as normal play. Press the FWD button twice to forward at 15 times normal speed, three times to forward at 60 times normal speed, and four times to forward at

300 times normal speed. The on-screen bar shows how far you’ve gone.

Tip: Auto recording is what happens automatically while you’re watching a program. It includes features like Pause, Back, Forward and Skip Forward. On-demand recording is what you use with programs you’ve already recorded.
