right protection systems, the picture on the additional component may
appear distorted or not at all.
You can connect a secondary, digital monitor using the IEEE 1394
port, but the monitor will not display the Moxi Menu, any other user
interface graphics, or the playback of recorded TV stored on your Moxi
3012 (see IEEE 1394 Connectors on page 60).
Archiving simplified
The Moxi 3012 permits personal archiving subject to all applicable
third party limitations. To archive a program, you must play back the
recorded program while recording it to a connected recording device
(such as a VCR). When recording to a VCR from any port, all on-screen
activities are recorded. This includes channel changes, navigation of
the Moxi Menu, system sounds, and playback actions (pause, stop,
rewind, and fast-forward).
Choosing the archive connection
Variations in VCR and TV technology present many connection
options. Determine which connection is used between the TV and the
Moxi, and then use an alternate connection to the VCR.
When selecting the connections, consider the video resolution.
• For HD programming, use a connection that supports 720p
and/or 1080i.
• For standard definition (480i), use any video connection except
the one used by the TV. See the following table for the resolu-
tions supported by each connection.

Signal flows from the Moxi
DVR to the TV and also to

secondary device in the
primary connection
between the Moxi DVR and
the TV.
