Recording Keep Recorded Programme For, and options include
numbers of weeks, months, 1 year and ‘Forever’.
After the keep period has passed, Magic TV™ will move the file to Trash
and the space will be made available for new recordings.
Individual recordings can be kept for different amount of times by
highlighting them in the Recorded Programmes list, pressing and
choosing the required time period.
A common configuration to avoid the disk becoming full is to set the
default to a few months and then set selected recordings to ‘Forever’ for
long-term viewing.
6.9 Playback of Recorded
Programmes
Once a recording has been selected from the Recorded Programmes List,
playback will begin. During playback you get all the features you would
expect from a video recorder such as pause, fast forward and rewind,
but there are some other features too.
These are the functions of remote control buttons during playback:

6.8 Managing Recorded
Programmes
Organising programmes into folders
In order to find recorded programmes faster, Magic TV™ has a folder
system where you can move recorded programmes into folders with
meaningful names. This can be done from either the To Do or Recorded
Programme Lists.
After pressing on a highlighted programme in either list, you can
select ‘Move to Folder’. The available folders are as follows:
To view the contents of the folders, simply go to the Recorded
Programme List and press .
Deleting and undeleting files
When browsing your recorded programmes, you can delete them by
pressing and choosing “Delete this programme” or by pressing
Magic TV™ then marks these files as ‘deleted’ and removes them from
the listings. The HDD space is now available for further recordings.
However, it is still possible to recover deleted files provided that they
have not been overwritten.
In the main Recorded Programme List, there is a Filter called ‘Trash’.
When a programme is highlighted and is pressed, you will have the
following options:
Pressing on a programme in Trash will permanently remove
it after confirmation.
Keeping Files
By default, Magic TV™ will keep all files indefinitely and will not
overwrite recordings unless they have been manually deleted. If you
keep programmes ‘Forever’, it is possible that Magic TV™ will not be
able to make a recording if the disk is full. However, the front panel
display and many of the menus contain the disk space information so
that you can be aware of a potential problem.
