Loewe Digital Recorder + manual About the Digital Recorder system, TV viewing with time shift

About the Digital Recorder system

Your Loewe TV set is equipped with a Digital Recorder that includes a hard disk. You can use this to record and playback picture and sound from TV programmes, like with a VCR or DVD recorder. However, the possibilities of the Digital Recorder are for more versatile than those of a VCR or DVD recorder:

TV viewing with time shift

The Digital Recorder always records the TV programme currently playing (if the continuous operation is switched on).

•Time shift

You can stop a TV programme at any time and continue playing it later with a time shift. The maximum time shift may be set to 2 hours. The recording starts again from the beginning and the old content is deleted every time you switch stations.

•Fast navigation by jumping

Jump backwards and forwards in the movie at the press of a button. The jump distance is adjustable.

In addition, the special Loewe function ”Smart jump“ ensures that for each change in jump direction the jump distance is cut in half. This way you can feel your way quickly to a certain spot in the time shift playback.

•Fast forward and rewind

You can fast forward and rewind at three different speeds in the pro- gramme you are viewing with time shift.

•Slow motion

You can watch the programme you are viewing with a time shift at four different slow motion speeds.

•Subsequent archive recording

You can also decide to copy the whole TV programme into the Digital Recorder‘s archive at the end of a TV programme you have been watching with a time shift.

•Setting bookmarks

During a football match, for example, you can flag goals or exciting scenes. For this, the time-shift recording is converted into an archive recording. For later playback, you can play bookmarks as highlights. 30 seconds before and after the set bookmark are played.

•Replay function

For instance, if you see a football match as live picture, you can jump back 40 seconds at the push of a button and watch the scene again. You see the live picture at the same time in a PIP picture.

Digital Recorder archive

You can record movies you want to watch later in the Digital Recorder‘s archive. The archive holds between 20 and 100 hours of movies, depend- ing on the recording quality set.

If EPG or teletext data are available, the Digital Recorder stores the title and additional information about each programme in the archive.

You start playing your recordings from the archive.

If bookmarks were set, these recordings are flagged accordingly. You can then start playback so that the bookmarks are played as highlights.

Select your favourite programme comfortably from the EPG or teletext for recording and watch the programmes later from the Digital Recorder‘s archive.

An automatic delete manager always ensures there is sufficient recording space for new movies.

•Sort titles

You can have the programmes displayed chronologically or in alphabeti- cal order. This way you can quickly find the movie you want to watch.

•Edit titles

You can change the title of a programme in the archive, if necessary.

•Parental lock

Protect archive recordings from unauthorised access by using the parental lock.

•Delete protection

Set the delete protection for a movie to prevent it from being deleted automatically by the Delete Manager.

•Copy
