Record a Program That You Are Watching Live

To record a program that you are watching live, make sure that you tune to the channel when the program begins. This ensures that you record the entire program from its beginning. Otherwise, you’ll record only part of the program.

Before recording the program, decide how long you want to save it, and then follow these steps.

To save the program

Save Time Setting

When the Explorer DVR leaves the factory, its default Save Time setting is set at 14 days. Using this setting, the Explorer DVR automatically saves each recording for 14 days. At the end of 14 days, the Explorer DVR erases the recording to make space for other

programs you want to record. You can change the default setting from 14 days to 1, 2, or 7 days, or you can change the default setting to save recordings until you erase them.

To change the default Save Time setting from the factory-set time of 14 days, see “Change the Default Save Time Setting for Future Recordings” on page 39.
