The Time Shift Buffer
As a result of the high data transfer speed of the HDD, it is possible to
play back recordings from the Time Shift Buffer while the recording is
still in process.
Therefore, you can jump back to the currently selected TV programme
using
JUMP BACK
T
and watch a scene again.
Moreover, you can use all playback features such as still picture, slow
motion, search by time, search with
N
U
,
O
V
even with
recordings that are still in the Time Shift Buffer.
In the meantime, the recording continues.
If you switch to another TV channel on the DVD-Recorder
(
CHANNEL
q
P
,
CHANNEL
r
S
) a new title is created with
the new TV channel in the Time Shift Buffer. If you watch a TV show
only for a short time (less than 60 seconds) before you change to a
different TV channel, no new title is created.
For easier navigation, you can change the time period of the Time Shift
Buffer from 1 to 6 hours. 1 hour means that a recording is available
only for one hour before it is automatically deleted to make room for
the current recording.
If the GUIDE Plus+
®
system delivers title information, the latter is also
stored with the recording. When recording TV shows without GUIDE
Plus+
®
information, only the date and the time of the recording are
stored as title.
What is the advantage from 1 hour and 6 hours?
The complete time periode of the time will be displayed on the whole screen
of your TV.
With 1 hour you will get the highest comfort for searching a specific scene.
With 6 hours you will get the longest possible recording time.
Please observe that the Time Shift Buffer needs also storage capacity on the
HDD. Depending of the selected record mode (picture quality):
6 hours in '
M1
' = approx. 28GB
6 hours in '
M8
' = approx. 3,4GB
How you enter the time periode, read in the chapter 'User
