WHOLE-HOME DVR SERVICE
NOTE: Only two locations can access a recorded
program at the same time (the HD DVR on
which the program was recorded and one other
location). If a third location tries to playback a
recording, a message will display explaining that
the program is not available.
Recordings can be deleted from any connected Receiver or
Client that has been set up to Allow Deletion. However, to
check the status of scheduled recordings on the To Do List or
to change the priority of a series you’ve scheduled to record,
go to the HD DVR, press MENU and select Recordings, then
Manage Recordings for options.
6. Watch Recorded Programs:
By networking your devices, the recordings from all the HD DVRs
in your household are combined into a “shared” Playlist. The
shared Playlist is accessible by all networked Receivers and
Clients, including non-DVRs. To access the Playlist, press the
LIST button on the remote control, or press MENU, then select
Recordings, then Playlist. Highlight a show and press SELECT to
play. If you’ve already watched part of the show in another room,
you can select Resume to pick up where you left off. You can use
any of the DVR control buttons such as PAUSE, FFWD, ADVANCE,
etc, while watching your recorded show.
You can limit access to programs with Parental Controls.
See “Parental Controls” in Chapter 6 for details. Your Parental
Control settings restrict access to both recorded and live
programs. Parental controls must be set at each Receiver.
To delete a program from your Playlist, use the arrow keys to
highlight the desired show and press the RED button. You’ll then
be asked to confirm the deletion.
