Standard DVR Functionality

DVR functionality integrated with the IPG enables subscribers to:

ƒPause, rewind, fast-forward, or record live TV

ƒMaintain a personal recorded program library and access it using the

IPG

ƒSelect programs to record across multiple channels and time slots

ƒRewind and replay recorded programs

ƒSimultaneously watch two programs, switching easily between them using the SWAP key

ƒRecord a program in the background while viewing another live program

ƒSimultaneously record programs from two channels while watching a different pre-recorded program, with the ability to switch viewing between any of the three programs

Motorola cannot guarantee the exact amount of programming that each subscriber will be able to record. The approximate time depends on the programming type and the drive size:

All times are approximate. The actual hours a subscriber can record are a function of program bit rate, the IPG type, and the reserved buffer space. A SATA port is available to connect an external drive to add DVR recording capacity (advanced feature requiring firmware support).
