Can I pause, rewind, or fast-forward a program shown in the upper right
corner of Entertainment Server screens?

Yes. The small screen shown in the upper right corner of Entertainment Server
screens (the Quarter screen) is actually the main TV screen. It is reduced to fit
within Entertainment Server screens. Keys such as pause, play, rewind, and fast-
forward control the main TV screen, whether the screen fills the monitor of your
TV or whether it is reduced to fit in an Entertainment Server screen.

Questions About Watching Two Programs at Once

If a program is being recorded in the PIP screen and I turn off the PIP
feature, will this stop the recording?

No. The Entertainment Server will continue to record the program even if you turn
off the PIP feature.

What if my TV doesn’t have the PIP feature?

That’s no problem. You can still use the PIP feature because the Entertainment
Server provides the PIP feature, not your TV.

Questions About Recording Programs and Playing
Them Back

Can I record the program that is shown in the PIP screen?

You can record a program that is shown in the PIP screen, but you must start the
recording from the main TV screen. For details, see “Record Two Programs at
Once” on page 21.

Can I play back more than one recording at the same time?

No. You can play only one recording at a time. For a list of how you can make the
most of the features provided by the Entertainment Server, see page 1.

Can I recover a recording that was erased from the Entertainment Server?

No. There is no way to recover a recording that has been erased from the
Recorded List screen. You can copy programs to a VCR tape or extend the
length of time a program is saved, though. For details, see “Copy Recordings to
a VCR Tape” on page 30 or “Change the Save Time of a Recording You Have
Saved” on page 32.
