I can’t play a DVD disc that I recorded using my HUMAX DVD Recorder in another DVD player.

• Not all DVD players will play all discs, even if the disc has been finalized.

I can’t save programs to a DVD disc I purchased.

The Recorder will only save to DVD-R and DVD-RW discs. It will not save to other disc formats (such as DVD+R or DVD+RW) . For
more information, see “Compatibility and Copy Protected Material” on page 64.

Questions About Channels

Can I watch one channel while recording from another?

• Yes. See “Watching One Channel & Recording Another” on page 18. (You will not have TiVo functionality on the channels you

watch using an RF cable that goes directly to your TV.) You can always watch any program from the Now Playing list while the
Recorder is recording a program.

I can’t get the channel to change.

If you use cable with no cable box:

• Be sure that you are using the TiVo remote and that you hold it so the TiVo button points toward the Recorder.

• Press any button on the remote. Does the red light above the TiVo button flash? If not, make sure the batteries are positioned

correctly in the remote. If they are, try a new set of batteries. If the red light on the remote does flash, do the lights on the front of the
Recorder seem to respond when you press any button on the remote? If they do not, restart your Recorder by unplugging it, waiting
15 seconds, then plugging it back in.

If you have a cable or satellite box and used the IR Control cable:

• Make sure the cable or satellite box is turned on.

• Make sure you are using the Recorder’s remote control, and that you hold it so the TiVo button points toward the Recorder, not at the

cable or satellite box.
