Philips 725H/00-02 Quick Install Manual

Features
The HDRW 720 is a DVD recorder that can store TV-shows on a built-in hard disk (HDD).
Moreover, it is a DVD player that can play back DVDs, audio and (s-)video CDs, and MP3 CDs. You can play back and edit the stored TV shows
(or camcorder recordings), and save (archive) these on DVD+RW/+R media for later viewing.
But your HDRW 720 is more than just an ordinary DVD recorder with a built-in hard disk.
From now on, it's better to use your TV set just as a monitor and tune to the various TV channels from your DVD recorder, taking advantage of
features like FlexTime, Instant Replay, or the abitity to pause live TV.
•
FlexTime:
With FlexTime, you can watch or rewind a TV show while it is being recorded.
You don't have to wait until the end of the recording before starting playback.
•
Instant Replay:
You can repeat a scene of a live TV show at the touch of a button ( JUMP BACK ), as often as you like.
•
Pause Live TV
You can pause a live TV show by pressing PAUSE 9 to, say, answer a phone call, while the recording continues. By pressing PLAY G , you
can resume playback of the show at the scene it was interrupted.
Time Shift Buffer
The above features are available because the HDRW 720 uses a so-called Time Shift Buffer.
As soon as you turn on your DVD recorder, it starts recording from the current TV channel into the
Time Shift Buffer. The DVD recorder stores all the TV shows you watched since you turned on the
recorder. If you watched a TV show for more than 60 seconds, the recorder will insert a marker. If
information is already available from the GUIDE Plus+
mark the beginning of the TV show.
Note:When you are recording from a cable box through the external input jacks, the title and start/end
information will not be available.
If the Time Shift Buffer is full (the default setting is 3 hours) the recorder will delete the oldest
recording to make room for new recordings. You can mark TV shows or parts of these to be recorded permanently on the HDD while the other
contents of the Time Shift Buffer will be deleted.
The Time Shift Buffer can be best compared to a conveyor belt running from right to left. A TV show resembles a package on this conveyor belt. If
you change the programme number or the GUIDE Plus+
belt. You can adjust the time a package will remain on the conveyor belt from 1 to 6 hours (the default setting is 3 hours).
As long as the packages are still on the conveyor belt, you can mark them red ( REC/OTR n ) or remove the marker ( RED function button).
You can only mark the package that's directly in front of you.
At the end of the conveyor belt (the preset time has expired), the recorder will decide whether a package will be stored (marked red) or
destroyed (unmarked). Only the packages that are marked red will be stored.
If you delete the Time Shift Buffer, the recorder will immediately remove all packages from the belt, storing only those you marked red.
