Watching and Recording TV with WinDVR
Opening WinDVR
To open WinDVR, double-click the InterVideo WinDVR
icon (shown at right) on your desktop, or press the Power
button on your remote control. The Display Window and
Control Panel appear.

The Power button on the remote control opens the
WinDVR software. It does not power on your computer.
The Display Window is where you view live or captured TV
programs. You can move and resize the window to suit your needs.
The Display Window may show static until an available channel is
selected.
The Control Panel (shown on
) is similar to a standard VCR
control panel. Use the Control Panel to watch live or recorded TV.
Open the Panel Menu to change such WinDVR settings as the sleep
timer, the parental control feature, and tuner input mode.
