Recording Programmes
Recording options
Below is the bottom part of an on screen menu that may appear when you make a
recording. The number of options available may vary.
If you do not wish to use any of these options press the [oK] button or simply wait until
the menu disappears.
There are 3 options that you may see in this menu:
1. HD alternative
When setting a Standard Definition (SD) programme to record, the HD Alternative option
will appear if there is a HD version of this programme available. Press the [RED] button
and HD alternative will be recorded instead.
2. Try this (Recommendations)
This allows you to record a selected list of related programmes. If, for example, you set a
recording for Panorama, the recommendations would contain similar programmes such as
Horizon. Press the [YELLoW] button if you would like these programmes to be recorded.
To ensure that the Series and Try this are also for HD, choose the HD option before
selecting Series or Try this options.
note
• The broadcaster controls the content of the recommendations and these may be the same as the recordings for
the Series.
3. Series record
This allows you to record an entire series at the push of a button (when supported by the
broadcaster). If the programme you are setting is part of a series, press the [BLUE] button
to record the entire series. Programmes set to record as part of a series are identified in
the “Timers” menu with a symbol.
Trailer booking
When there is a trailer for a TV programme (e.g. just before or after Eastenders) a symbol
may be displayed on screen (when supported by broadcasters). To use this feature press the
[GREEn] button and select the programme(s) you wish to record.
note
• Go to the Timers screen to check the recorded program, and the timer can be modified (Refer to page 26/27 for
more information).
