•Presettings made using the EPG are automatically shown in the scheduled table.

Priority rules for overlapped presettings

When preset TV programmes are overlapped, the following two rules are used to determine higher priority. If more than one of the two rules are met, the rules are applied in the order 1 then 2.

Rule 1:If two presettings are overlapped, the presetting with the earlier start time is given a higher priority. If two presettings are sequential, the last portion of the first programme or the first portion of the second may not be recorded.

Rule 2:If presettings with the same start time are overlapped, the presetting with the bigger list number is given a higher priority.
