Change the Default Save Time Setting for Future
Recordings

When the Entertainment Server leaves the factory, its default Save Time setting is
set at 14 days. Using this setting, the Entertainment Server automatically saves
each recording for 14 days. At the end of 14 days, the Entertainment Server
erases the recording to make space for other programs you want to record. You
can change this setting from 14 days to 1, 2, or 7 days, or to “until erased.”

Important: When you change the default Save Time setting, all future recordings
recorded with the default save time will be saved according to the new Save
Time setting.
