2. The Recordings and Timers Screen

The Recordings and Timers screen shows subfolders in the current folder, recordings available to play in the current folder, and upcoming timers waiting to happen, ordered by time.

At the top of the Recordings and Timers screen is a line representing the hard disk, separated into two regions: used (dark turquoise in the images) and unused (light turquoise). The disk space taken by the currently selected recording (if post-record) or timer (if pre-record – approximate) is also shown as a portion of the bar (yellow in the lower image).

Figures also show the number of hours recorded, waiting to be recorded (‘reserved’) and (approximately) remaining.

The lower pane of the screen will show (a

portion of) the information for a selected recording. If available and enabled (see Configuration page section below) a thumbnail scene from the recording is also shown. This defaults to the ‘last viewed’ scene, but up to six thumbnails spread across the recording will be generated, either when chosen by the user (see [SWAP/PIP] in this section below) or automatically overnight.

Access the recordings and timers screen by pressing the [ARCHIVE] button. [EXIT] will close the screen and revert to the current channel. Recording and timers may be split into separate screens, according to a Configuration choice. If this is in effect, pressing [ARCHIVE] while in one of the screens will toggle to the other; if it is not in effect,

[ARCHIVE] acts as [EXIT], returning to the current broadcast again.

Other key actions:

 

[RED]:

Moves a page up i.e. to the previous seven events

[GREEN]:

Moves a page down

[YELLOW]:

‘First’ or ‘Up’: Jumps to the first item in the current folder (i.e. the

 

highest up the list) or, if that item is currently highlighted and you’re

 

looking at a subfolder, causes iGuide to navigate up to the parent

 

folder and display its contents instead.

[BLUE]:

Asks for confirmation to delete the currently selected recording, timer

 

or series. Pressing [YELLOW] will confirm the deletion; any other

 

key cancels.

[UP/DOWN]:

Move to the previous/next event.
