How many programs can you record at a time?
The number of channels you can record at the same time depends on which Fetch box you have, whether you are recording Free-to-Air
or Subscription channels, and what your bandwidth settings are.
The Gen 3 Mighty Fetch box has 4 tuners – three for recording and one for watching, and can record up to six channels whilst you watch
a seventh. Each of the three recording tuners in this box can record 2 Free-to-Air channels from the same channel family at the same
time.
The Gen 2 Fetch box has 3 tuners – two for recording and one for watching, and can record up to four channels whilst you watch a fifth.
Each of the two recording tuners in this box can record 2 Free-to-Air channels from the same channel family at the same time.
If you have an additional Fetch Mini in your home for Multiroom, you can set and manage recordings remotely on your connected Fetch
Mighty or Gen 2 box from the Fetch Mini. All boxes need to be on the same account, powered on and connected to the same home
network.
Here’s more info on how channel families work:
Free-to-Air channels* are made up of families as shown here:
*Select channels only available in Metro areas.
Recording multiple shows at the same time
Seven family Nine family
Ten family
ABC family
SBS family

15
Each tuner in the Gen 2 and Fetch Mighty boxes can record two channels from the same family at the same
time. For example, on the Mighty you can record 2 shows from the Ten family and 2 from the Seven family and
2 from the ABC family all at the same time, while you’re watching another channel.
There are no channel families for subscription channels. You can record any 2 subscription channels on Gen 2 or
any 3 subscription channels on Gen 3 at the same time.
The number of subscription channels you can record at a time also depends on the bandwidth limit in User
Settings (Page 38).

Watch recordings on another Fetch box
You can share recordings between up to three Fetch boxes in your home if your Fetch service includes the
Multiroom feature*. This means you can watch stuff you recorded on any Fetch box from any other box in your
home. You can watch content recorded on your other boxes from a Fetch Mini too.
You can’t set or manage recordings on other boxes from a Fetch Mighty or Gen 2 box. However, you can do this
from a Fetch Mini when you pair to your Fetch Mighty or Gen 2 box.
Finding your shared recordings
You’ll see shared recordings in Menu > My Stuff > Recordings.
• On Fetch Mighty or Gen 2, recordings on another box will have a Multiroom icon .
• On Fetch Mini, recordings on a paired box look the same as on that box. Recordings on an additional unpaired
box will show the Multiroom icon.
How does Multiroom work?
All your Fetch boxes need to be on the same account, powered on and connected to your local network.
Select the sharing options in Menu > Manage > Settings > Multiroom > Options (Page 39) for each box in your
home. You can then share recordings, subscription channels, rentals and purchases.
If you’ve no antenna connected to your Fetch Mini, you can share Free-to-Air channels from a paired Mighty
or Gen 2 box. (Your paired Fetch Mighty still needs a TV antenna connection to receive and share digital Free-
to-Air TV). You can’t share Free-to-Air channels from one Fetch Mighty or Gen 2 box to another.
Which boxes support Multiroom?
The Gen 2, Mighty, and Mini box all support sharing.
* Multiroom may not be available on your Fetch service yet.

Set the seasons you want to record
You can set the season option for a Series Recording to control which episodes the Series Recording will
record. Record All Seasons means all episodes from all seasons of the show will be recorded. Record
Latest Season means only the latest season onwards will record. Record Newest will only record newer
episodes than the latest episode and season onwards. If the episode is already on your Fetch box,
then it won’t record again. You may still get duplicate recordings if the correct season or episode info is
unavailable.
When setting a Series Recording from the TV Guide press twice. Then press . Select Series
Recording, and change the Seasons setting using the on screen arrows.

Things you can do with Series Recording
Set the number of episodes you want to keep
You can choose the number of recorded episodes of a show you want to keep on the hard drive. If it’s
the evening news you may just want to keep 1 at a time (record today’s and delete yesterday’s), or you
can choose to keep 2, 5 or All (Managed), or All (Protected). Managed means it will be kept unless the box
needs space for more recordings. Protected means it will never be deleted unless you manually delete it.
When setting a Series Recording from the TV Guide adjust the Storage Setting using the on screen arrows.
