To start the instant replay feature, click on it in the master
panel while watching TV. Forward, Rewind and Pause
controls enable you to navigate, or you can drag the slider
control to move between frames more quickly.
To record a program while you watch TV, simply click on
Record to start, and then click on Stop when you want to
finish. Clicking on the record button during recording
displays the timer, enabling you to select a fixed time
period after which recording will stop automatically. After
recording, the playlist will appear, allowing you to save the
file.
To schedule recording for a time when you will be away
from the computer, switch to the Recording Scheduler
mode. The scheduling wizard will appear, guiding you
through the selection of settings required to set up the
scheduler.
Time-shifting Playback
The time shifting function enables you to watch an earlier
segment of a live program while PowerVCR continues to
record in real-time. This means that you can:
• Join a program after it has begun without missing the
start.
• Pause watching a live program when you have to take
a break, and then restart your viewing in the place
where you left off.
To enable time shifting, just press Instant TV Replay on
the left panel of Power VCR, then the system will start to
record the program in background. You can playback at any
time by moving the slider or use the Forward, Rewind
and Pause controls.
For more information on TV function, refer to the
PowerVCR on-line-help.
