To enable or disable Timeshift:
‣ Display the navigation menu
‣ Select “Timeshift“
‣ Hit Return to toggle the Timeshift status

MediaCentral will store the TV content on your hard drive. The
amount of disk space used for this is configurable.

To configure the amount of disk space used for Timeshift:
‣ Display the navigation menu
‣ Select “Timeshift“
‣ Hit Return repeatedly to select the desired setting

“Minimum“ uses 300 MB of disk space at most, while
“Maximum“ will use all available disk space (it leaves 1 GB of
space free, though).

The simplest way to use Timeshift is to pause and resume the
current program.

To pause or resume the current program:
‣ Hit the space bar

But Timeshift let’s you do more. Once it is enabled,
MediaCentral will automatically store the ongoing program in
the Timeshift cache. This allows you to move back in time.

To go back in time (scroll):
‣ Press Shift + Left Arrow

A timeline will appear, signalling your current offset from the
live picture (to the right) as well as your offset from the cache
start (to the left).
