Contemporary Research IP-HDVR Manual De Usuario

 

 

 

 

The remaining tuner capabilities can be set up by easy-to-use on-screen menus. The menus can be accessed 

from the HD-RC IR remote control using the Menu, Arrow, Select ( ), Surf, and Exit buttons. You can also 

use similar buttons on the IP-HDVR front panel. 

 

• 

Menu – Displays the first level of the on-screen menu, step backward from menu levels 

• 

TV Guide – Displays the TV Guide On Screen Electronic Program Guide (EPG) 

• 

Arrows – Use up/down keys to select main menus, left/right arrow keys to move through sub-

menus 

• 

Select – Can step forward into sub-menus or confirm an action, the   button in the center of the 

directional arrows is the same function as Select 

• 

Surf – Selects channels for surf list in Edit Channel mode, steps through favorite channels in normal 

operation 

• 

Exit – Exits menu 

 

 

One of the biggest paradigm shifts in digital TV is how channels are accessed. Gone is the familiar Channel 

33. Now you have 33-0, 33-1, 33-2, and so on. In a nutshell, the new tuning options are: 

 

• 

Analog Channels. Entering the number-0 accesses the traditional analog TV channel.  

• 

Digital Channels. Entering the same channel-1 tunes the digital equivalent of the analog channel. 

Note that the digital channel is broadcast on a UHF frequency. Digital tuners see the channel ID (NN-

1) in the signal and lists by that name instead of the actual frequency. This way, the broadcasters 

keep their channel identity, even when analog goes away.  

• 

Multicast Digital Channels. Because digital is more compressed than analog, broadcasters are 

often including additional sub-channels, listed as NN-2, NN-3; up to 6 if the station is only 

broadcasting SD quality programming.  

• 

Two-Digit Tuning. If you are currently watching a digital channel, entering the old channel format, 

such as 33, will access 33-1. If you are watching an analog channel, entering 33 will take you to  

33-0.
