Live Memory Playback

Setting Time for Live Memory Playback

Equipped with a hard disk drive, this recorder allows information to be written to and read from the hard disk at high speeds. Taking advantage of this feature, you can temporarily record programs received with the tuner or from an externallyconnected equipment � CATV or DBS, and can watch them only a few seconds behind actual air time. In this recorder, viewing a program through HDD (not a recorded program) means you are always watching the program temporarily recorded on it. This feature enables you to reverse the program back to view any previous part of it � so called �Live Memory Playback�, which was impossible until now. To access �Live Memory Playback�, all that you have to do is to turn on the recorder and select the HDD deck. So, the temporary recording is started on the HDD deck. And, you can select the length of the time for temporary recording from off, 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 3 hours.

About �Live Memory Playback�

With a certain amount of space (for 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 3 hours) reserved on the hard disk, the recorder records broadcasts being received or signals input from an externally connected equipment. Even while you are reversing the program to review any previous part, the recorder continues recording the same program or externally-input signals. When the reserved amount of time (or space) runs out, the recorder overwrites the previous recordings on the hard disk, starting with the oldest one, repeatedly if necessary. After having recorded a certain number of programs, if you try to increase the amount of your reserved time on HDD, you may not be allowed to do so because of possible lack of available space, and the recorder will inform you of this by displaying a message on the screen.
