Take Control of Live Programs
Anytime you tune to a live program, the Entertainment Server begins buffering it –
that is, making a temporary recording of it – so that you can . . .
• Pause the live program or rewind it
• Fast-forward through the portion you have rewound
• Instantly replay live TV anytime you want
• Save the live program to the Entertainment Server by recording it
Buffered Programs
The Entertainment Server automatically buffers the last hour of the
channel that you are watching and continues to buffer the channel
until you . . .
Watch the channel for longer than an hour
After an hour, the Entertainment Server removes the
earlier minutes of the program from its buffer so that
only the last hour is kept in the buffer.
Tune to another progam
When you change channels, the Entertainment Server
begins to buffer the program you have just tuned to.
It removes the program you were watching from
the buffer.
Turn off the Entertainment Server
When you turn off the Entertainment Server, it
erases everything from its buffer.
Have the Entertainment Server record
the program
When you press Record , the Entertainment Server
records the portion of the live program it has buffered,
and begins recording the rest of the live program as it
is broadcast.
When recording, the red Record light turns on.
