Save Latest Options

When scheduling a recording of all episodes, you
can choose to save from 1 to 5 of the most recent
episodes. Or, you can save every episode until you
cancel the recordings or run out of storage space.

For example, let’s say that you choose to save the 2
most recent episodes of a program that is broadcast
every weeknight Monday through Friday. When the DVR
records the program on Wednesday, it automatically
deletes the program it recorded on Monday. So the
Tuesday and Wednesday recordings are now saved. Then, on Thursday, the
Thursday episode is recorded, the Tuesday recording is erased, and so on.
