❖Some channels can be shared by two or more networks,
depending on the time of day. The Guide may display
only one network’s programming. This may cause
recording options to be unavailable. You may need to
manually update the Guide before scheduling a
recording.
If you turn off your computer, the Media Center will not record
a scheduled program. Your computer must be turned on or in
Stand By mode to record a TV program. The computer will not
automatically go into Stand By mode if the Media Center is
open.
