Network monitoring: by activating this feature, you will be 
automatically informed when any new channels or services 
become available.

Recording type: By default, the recorder will monitor the 
signalisation to start and end the recording when the 
programme is really broadcasted. It allows also to have 
recording of series. If the programme starts slightly early or 
finishes slightly late you may sometimes miss part of the 
expected programme. This recording mode is identified as 
Programme type.
You can programme recording margins which will be 
automatically added to the recordings carried out via the TV 
Guide. This allows you to avoid missing the beginning or end of 
programmes that start slightly early or finish slightly late by 
setting the receiver to start recording before the programme is 
due to start and stop after it is due to end.

If you select recording type to Timer you will loose the 
automatic rescalling of schedule recodrdings and the possibility 
to record all episodes of a serie automatically.
