6.2.3. Timeshifting: Taking Control of Live TV
One of the LaCinema Black MAX’s key benefits is the ability to
pause and rewind live TV. The LaCinema Black MAX automati-
cally records TV as you are watching it, keeping the last three
hours of recorded television. This buffer allows you to rewind up
to three hours. If you rewind while watching live television, you
can then fast-forward until you reach the live television time.
This icon in the information banner shows you that
you are watching TV in timeshifting mode (
Fig. 63
).
Additionally, a progress bar shows you how far
you are from the live television point.
TECHNICAL NOTE:
Changing channels restarts the buffer,
so you can only rewind until you reach the point where you last
changed the channel.
