DirecTV DVR40 用户手册

To start recording a program while you’re watching it, press RECORD. From the options 
that display, choose “Record this showing.” Or you can choose “Season Pass and other 
options” to see the Program Information screen and either get a Season Pass (page 59) or 
change Recording Options (page 60). The recording will stop automatically when the 
program ends. You can stop it before that by pressing the RECORD button. A transparent 
screen will appear with a selection to “Stop the current recording.” You can also select a 
program in the Now Playing List, and then choose “Stop recording.”

Even when you are not recording a program, the DVR saves up to 30 minutes of live TV 
from the current channel. If you change channels and you have Dual Tuner enabled, the 
DVR starts saving on the new channel as well. When you start to record a live program, if 
the DVR has saved a portion of that program, it adds what has been saved to the beginning 
of your recording.

With Dual Tuner, if you’re switching between two channels by using the DOWN arrow, 
the DVR saves up to 30 minutes of live TV on both channels. If you move to a new 
channel (that is, a third channel), the saved portion on the first channel is cleared, and the 
DVR starts to save live TV on the new channel (in addition to the other most recent 
channel you were watching). You can use the fast forward, instant replay, and slow 
motion features on either of the two current channels.
