Your Freesat box can record one channel
while you watch another. Or you can
record two dierent channels, and play
back a recording you made earlier.
The box will need to be connected to
the satellite dish with two cables. If you
only use one cable, this feature won’t be
available.
Pressing standby while recording won’t
stop the recording. Your Freesat box will
go into standby when the recording has
finished.
Record from when you started watching
Your Freesat box automatically saves up
to 30mins of the channel you’re watching,
even if you’re not recording.
So if you decide that you want to record
a programme part way through, press
