Assoon as you turn on theDVD recorder, the currently selected TV
channelon theDVD-Recorder is recordedin a temporarystorage
(Timeshift Buffer).
Recordingsin thetime shiftbuffer will beautomatically deleted e.g.
after3 hours if the period of the time shift buffer is set to 3 hours
(factorysetting). Only recordings marked inthe Time shiftBuffer will
bestored on the the built-in HDD For more information, read the
nextsection 'The TimeShift Buffer'.
Thefollowing additionalinformation is stored witheach recording:
•)name of therecording
If no name is recognised from the GUIDE Plus+®systems data, only the
programmenumber (programme name) andthe time willbe storedas
thename.
•)length of therecording
•)recording mode (quality)
•)date of therecording
•)index pictureof the recording
Tofacilitate the search of a specific position, a chapter marker is
recordedevery 5 minutes. How you switch off this function you will
readin chapter 'User preferences for the HDD' in the section
'Preferences','Recording', 'Chapters'. After therecording is
completed,you can select these markers with N,O. Please
makesure thatthe chapterselection is activated(the 'CHAPTER'
symbollights up in the info bar at the top of the screen). If necessary,
youcan activateit using T/C .
The Time shift Buffer
Asa result of the high data transfer speed of the HDD, it is possible to
playback recordings from the time shift buffer while the recording is
stillin process.
Therefore,you can jump back to the currently selected TV programme
using JUMPBACK and watch a sceneagain.
Moreover,you can use all playback features such as still picture, slow
motion,search by time, search with N,Oeven with recordings
thatare still in thetime shift buffer.
In the meantime,the recording continues.
If youchange the TV channel on the DVD-Recorder ( CHANNEL q,
CHANNELr) a new title is created with the new TV channel in the
timeshift buffer. If youwatch a TVshow only for ashort time (less
than60 seconds)before you change to adifferent TV channel, nonew
titleis created.
Foreasier navigation, you can change the time period of thetime shift
bufferfrom 1 to 6 hours. 1 hour means that a recording is available
onlyfor one hour before it is automatically deleted to make room for
thecurrent recording.
If the GUIDE Plus+®systemdelivers title information, the latteris also
storedwith the recording.When recording TV showswithout GUIDE
Plus+®information,only the date and the time of the recording are
storedas title.
Whatis the advantage from 1 hour and 6 hours?
Thecomplete time periode of the time will be displayed on the whole screen
ofyour TV.
With1 houryou will getthe highest comfort for searchinga specific scene.
With6 hoursyou will getthe highest possible recording time.
Pleaseobserve that the Timeshift Buffer needs also storage capacity on the
HDD.Depending of theselected record mode (picturequality):
6hours in 'M1'= approx. 28GB
6hours in 'M8'= approx. 3,4GB
Howyou enter the time periode, read in the chapter 'User preferences for
theHDD' inthe section 'Preferences'/ 'Recording'/'HDD buffer'.
