Introduction
Get ready to free your TV. You’re going to love the new control you have over how and when you watch television
once you’re free from the usual constraints of ordinary television.
This extraordinary television service offers a powerful new DVR-giving freedom to record your favorite programs
and watch them on your schedule. Using the buttons on the remote control, you can fast forward through parts
you don’t want to watch and rewind to watch the things you want to see again.
You even have the freedom to control Live TV. Each time you tune to a channel, the DVR begins making a temporary
recording of the program you are watching. This gives you the ability to pause the current program if the phone
rings and the freedom to rewind or instant replay a scene that you just have to see again. Your DVR will record
up to one hour of Live TV.
It’s important to understand the Live TV recording is not permanent. Unlike recording a program on your DVR to
watch later, the DVR records Live TV in a temporary storage or a buffer. For Live TV recordings, this temporary
recording (buffer) will be erased if any of the following occur:
• The DVR is turned off.
• You watch the same channel for longer than the temporary recording buffer period. The most recent hour
of the program is kept in the temporary recording
• You switch to another program. When you change channels, your DVR begins to store the new program.
It removes the previous program you were watching from the temporary storage.
This user guide will walk you through the many features of this extraordinary TV service.
But as always, if you have questions or problems, just give us a call at 605-692-6211.
