During playback
During playback, (or fast forward or rewind) your box’s front panel lights up to show you what is
happening. For more information about the front panel, see page 5.
Showing information
◆ While you are watching a recording, you can press OK to display the channel banner to find
out what is showing on other channels. (Note that if you change channel, playback of your
recording will stop.)
◆ You cannot display extra information for programmes on other channels - you can only display
extra information for the recording you are watching.
◆ If you want to see extra information for the programme you are watching, press i.
Pausing and stopping
◆ If you change channel, playback of your recording will stop.
◆ To pause playback at any moment, press pause. To start playback again, press pause again, or
press play.
◆ To stop playback at any moment, and return to normal TV, press stop or VIASAT.
◆ To stop playback at any moment, and return to your Planner, press BACK.
◆ When the recorded programme ends, a message displays to tell you. To return to your Planner,
press BACK, or to return to digital TV, press VIASAT.
Fast forward and rewind
Whenever a programme is playing back or is paused, you can fast forward and rewind at any of four
different speeds.
◆ To rewind, press the rewind button on your Viasat remote control (see page 4).
The rewind x2 symbol displays on the front panel of the box. The number shows you the speed
(number of times faster than normal playback) the programme is rewinding, and the direction (anti-
clockwise) that the symbol is spinning shows you that it is rewinding.
◆ To increase the speed, press rewind again, up to 3 times (x6, x12, x30).
◆ To decrease the speed, press the fast forward button.
◆ To return to normal playback, press play.
You can fast forward in the same way as you rewind, just use the fast forward button to increase the
fast forward speed, and the rewind button to decrease the fast forward speed.
If you reach the end of the recording, the playback pauses at that point. You can then either rewind
or stop the recording.
Slow motion playback
You can play back a programme in slow motion, by pressing and holding down the play button for
at least 2 seconds. While the programme is showing in slow motion, the playback symbol displays,
spinning in slow motion.
To return to the normal speed, press play again.
