ROGRAM
Use these steps to record a live program. Keep in mind, if you tune to a program after it
starts, you can record only the part of the program after you tune to it.
When you record a live program, you have the following recording options available:
• Stop Recording Manually—the receiver records until you press STOP.
• Extend End Time—you can extend the stop time for the recording. Choose this
option for programs that might run into overtime, like sporting events or awards
shows.
• Create Recurring Timer—you can set up a timer that automatically records a pro-
gram. Refer to Creating an Automatic Timer on page 56.
• Record the Entire Event—the receiver stops recording at the end of the event. This
option is available only if the receiver was tuned to the channel at the beginning of the
program.
Note: Programs recorded in HD require up to six times more storage space than
programs recorded in SD.
