Recording notification banner

If the TV is not on, the recording occurs as scheduled.

If the TV is on and you are watching the channel that is set to record, the recording occurs as scheduled.

If the TV is on and you are watching a channel other than the one that is set to record, a notification banner (illustrated below) appears on-screen before recording starts. At that time you can choose to start or cancel recording.

The default highlighted item in the notification banner is “Change channel; start recording.” If no change is made within 3 minutes, the notification banner will close automatically, the channel will change to the one set to record, and the recording will occur as scheduled. If you want to cancel the recording, select “Don’t change; cancel recording” in the notification banner and press ENTER.
