CONFLICT MANAGEMENT
Your system comes with six tuners, which means that you can
record up to six* shows at once unless someone is watching live TV
at the same time. In the event that there is a tuner conflict, such as
when you have six recordings scheduled and are watching another
live show, your Recorded TV will bring up an action menu that
outlines your options and lets you make a choice.
SPACE MANAGEMENT
Shows are automatically kept until more room is needed. You can
protect shows from deletion from the Recorded TV category; see
the following chapter for details.
When you schedule a new show to record, your system will check
to make sure your hard drive has enough room.
If your hard drive does not have enough room for the new record-
ing, you’ll receive a message informing you that, when the new
show airs, some recordings may need to be deleted in order to
make room for the new show.
If all of your current recordings are protected against deletion,
you’ll get a message that your show may not be recorded.

RECORDED TV MANAGEMENT
When you press INFO with a recorded program in focus, you’ll get
the following list of opations in the action menu:
• Resume – This option only appears if you’ve watched a portion
of the program. Launches the program full screen from the point
you left off.
• Start Over – Launches the program full screen from the beginning.
• Delete – Removes the program from Recorded TV.
• Recording Options – Lets you access the recording options menu.
• Keep Until – Your system will automatically delete the oldest
shows in your Recorded TV folder as you need the room for new
recordings. Keep Until lets you set the program to be deleted at
the point of your choosing.
• See All Times – Displays all of the times that particular show airs.
• Lock – Prevents someone from watching the recorded program
without a PIN.
• Record Series – you’ll get this option if you only have a single
episode recorded.
RECORDED TV OPTIONS
The Options card appears in the Recorded TV category and lets
you set your personal recording preferences. Select the Options
card, and you’ll get access to:
Canceled and Deleted – When you chose to record one show
over another due to a conflict, (or someone in your household
does) sometimes it’s hard to remember why that canceled show
isn’t showing up in Recorded TV. Your system keeps a list of shows
that you have scheduled that will not record as well as shows that
did not record. The shows above focus have not aired yet, while
the shows below focus have already aired.
Scheduled to Record – You can conrm that a show is set to
record using the Scheduled to Record category. In Scheduled to
Record, you can also cancel a recording and access your recording
options for each show. Just pick the show you want to manage
and press INFO.
