less than 5 minutes), do not put the unit into standby mode afterwards (by pressing standby key), or the recording may be cancelled. Please note that you will not be able to switch to another DVB-T channel while a recording is in process. Indeed, the current DVB-T tuner is dedicated on the current channel to record, and therefore another channel cannot be watched simultaneously. If you wish to watch another channel while a recording is in progress, you are therefore advised to switch to your satellite receiver or any other reception device connected to your TV. Notes on recording and USB functions Information on the recording format: Recording is done in MPEG-TS format which allows recording in HD quality identical to the signal received. To play your recordings on another multimedia device, it may be necessary to install a compatible video codec. If you want to record a film or a long program, use a memory stick of larger capacity (eg. 4GB). If you want to save several films, opt for external hard drives of large capacity. The loading time of the USB device is too long: When you insert a USB support, the loading time can sometimes be a minute or more. This depends on the size of your support, the number of files on it and, above all, the complexity of its directories. You can reduce loading time by avoiding the use of multiple sub- directories in your USB disk. Avoid such multiple-subdirectories like Directory/Subdirectory/Sub-subdirectory/... and store files in a single simple directory. - USB Device Recognition Problems o After connecting your USB device to the unit, you may need to turn the device on before it can be detected by the receiver. o This unit does not support direct USB connection with computer. It is necessary for you to transfer your data/files on a USB stick or MP3 player. o If you are using an external hard drive to be connected via USB, you must connect the hard drive simultaneously with a power source and with the unit. If you are using a portable video player with hard drive, you must make sure that the internal battery is fully charged. o Verify that the file system of your USB device is properly formatted in FAT 32. USB media formatted in NTFS is not compatible with this unit. If your USB drive formatted in FAT 32 is not recognized by this receiver, it is recommended as a last resort that you format your hard drive on this unit. For this please follow the steps described on the previous page. Before doing so, please refer to the manual of your USB device to ensure that formatting is possible without altering its functionality. o The USB device used may not be fully compatible with USB 2.0. In this case, try a different USB stick in order to identify the problem. - Recording Quality o If your recording is shaky or choppy The data stream to be recorded is very important. Certain USB sticks, even some new USB 2.0 ones, do not allow sufficient data transfer rate. If this happens, try with a newer USB device or with an external hard drive. With external hard drives, data transfer rate is sufficiently high and this problem should be solved. o Remark on the size of recorded files To ensure maximum compatibility with all the USB drives, recording file size is limited to 232MB. For this reason, a single recording session may be divided into several files. This unit will, however, treat them as a single file for playback. 24

3.5 Time Shift Function This DVB-T receiver presents a function called Time Shift which allows recording of TV program onto a digital storage medium (e.g. USB stick or external hard disc, not supplied). You may then watch the program at a later time that is more convenient to you. Want to put the television on pause?

If you want to stop the recording and playback, please press STOP button. Choose OK to save the recording file on the USB device; choose EXIT to cancel saving recording file. Note on Use of the Time Shift Function The Time Shift function requires a high data transfer rate between the USB device and the unit. Indeed, a recording and a (deferred) playback simultaneously take place on the USB device. Certain USB sticks, even some new USB 2.0 devices, may lead to shaky image or choppy sound. If you encounter this problem, it is necessary to change the USB device. External hard drives, self-powered by mains, provide the highest transfer rates and allow you to use the Time Shift function optimally. In case of recording quality problems or playback problems such as choppy or blocked image, you may also try to format your USB device by using the Formatting function of this unit only (see Formatting your USB device ). 25
