Your Family Media Center lets you record the program you are watching, record a program that is scheduled to broadcast later, or record a recurring program series.
To record the program you are watching
1 | Use the CH/PG + or CH/PG – buttons, numeric |
| keypad, or the Guide to choose programs that you |
| want to record. |
2 | On the remote, press the Record button. The |
| program recording starts. |
Tip:
To record programs to the hard drive, your Family Media Center must be turned on, in standby mode, or hibernate mode. For more information about using standby and hibernate, Click Start, Help and Support, then search for the keywords standby or hibernate.
To set up a recording from the Guide
1 On the remote, press the Guide button. The Guide opens.
2 Highlight the TV program you want to record, then press the Record
button. The record icon appears next to the program to indicate the recording has been scheduled.
3 To end the program recording, press the Stop 
button or let the recording stop automatically when the current program is over.
Tip:
When recording a program, you can only watch the program that is recording. If you change channels during a program recording, the recording stops.
The program automatically records when the scheduled program begins broadcasting and stops recording when the program broadcast ends.
Tip: |
|
The Guide is available to multiple user accounts on the Windows XP |
|
Media Center. However, the program recording schedules are shared |
|
among all accounts. A program recording conflict message appears |
|
if a user tries to schedule a recording for a time that has already |
|
been scheduled. | 47 |
