Recording TV Programs

Media Center allows you to record TV programs so that you can watch them when it is convenient. You

wcan record the program you are watching, or you can record a future program or series from the

Guide, the Search, or the Recorded TV window in My TV. You can record two programs at the same time if your PC has two TV tuners (select models only).

If a recording error occurs, the program will not be recorded unless the conflict is resolved.
