Managing Your Personal Video Library

A recorded program remains in your personal video library until you decide to delete it unless you have it set to
delete when space is needed. Your DVR will record and store up to 90 hours of standard definition programming
and up to 20 hours of High Definition programming*. There are several options for making the most efficient use of
DVR storage space:

To Delete Recordings

From a Recorded Program Information screen, select the Icon to delete the recording. Select the Icon to
modify the

Delete Priority, which gives you additional options such as deleting the recording when space is needed.

Copy Recordings to A VCR Tape

After you watch a recording, decide to either erase it or
keep it permanently by transferring it to a VCR tape.

When you copy recordings to a VCR tape, make sure
that the recording is displayed on the TV screen for the
entire time the recording is being copied. If you
change channels or display guide screens during the
copying process, your tape copy will contain these
images and you may not have a complete copy of the
recording.

1. Connect the

RCA Jacks connection on the back of the DVR to your VCR Video In.

2. Put a tape in your VCR.
3. Access your list of

Recorded Programs.

4. Highlight a program from your list and press OK or INFO to select the recorded program you want transfered to tape.
5. From the Information Screen, select to restart from the beginning.
6. Start recording on the VCR when playback begins.
7. As the recording plays, it is taped to your VCR.

Note: Refer to your VCR User Manual for specific instructions on using your VCR.

Recording Low and Full Notices

To help you manage your personal video library,
i-Guide will advise you with an on-screen notice when
the available memory gets low or full.

If recording space becomes full during a recording, the
recording will stop. Make sure you have enough
recording space to record the entire program before
you begin to avoid missing part of the program.

* Recording HD programing requires a DVR connection to a
HD television.
