Digital Video Recording (DVR) (Optional Feature)

Imagine…coming home to your own personal library of television programs, movies, and sports that you can watch whenever it’s convenient for you. It’s TV for your schedule.

Pause live television! Rewind and replay programs so you don’t miss a beat.

Record up to 40 hours* of your favorite programs and view them as many times as you want, whenever you want. You can even record High Definition TV**. All without rentals, tapes or returns.

DVR has made recording and watching your favorite programs easier than ever. Powered by i-Guide, now you can record your favorite programs and watch them at your convenience. You have your own personal video library, stored on your digital set-top box. You can even pause, fast forward and rewind LIVE TV to playback the scenes you’ve missed. In fact, your DVR is one of the first available that can actually record and play High Definition programming!**

Control Live TV

Using your DVR with i-Guide, you can control LIVE TV. Anytime you tune to a channel, the DVR begins making a temporary recording of whatever you’re watching. So you can PAUSE if the phone rings, REWIND the scene you missed and FAST FORWARD to skip what you don’t want to watch. Your DVR will record up to two hours of live TV+.

The live TV recording is not a permanent recording, unless you actually record it to the DVR’s hard drive. For live TV recordings, the temporary recording will be erased if any of the following occur:

•You turn off the DVR.

•You change the channel.

•You begin recording the program you are watching or another program to the DVR.

•You watch more than two hours. After two hours, the DVR removes the earlier minutes of the recording, so that the most recent two hours are kept in the temporary recording.

Playback Controls

These buttons function like VCR controls. Plus, you have new DVR control features, like Instant Replay.

Note: Some remotes will have an Instant Replay button.

*Recording capacity varies.

**Recording and playback of High Definition programs requires DVR connection to High Definition television. +Recording buffer (temporary hard drive) will record as long as you stay tuned to the same channel.
