Recording Options include:

• Keep At Most. (Only available for a repeating recording.) This option sets the 

maximum number of programs to save as part of the series. The default is five. This is 
useful for news programs for which you only want the most recent episode, or 
children’s programs for which you may want to keep several episodes but do not want 
to fill up the Now Playing List.

• Show Type. (Only available for a repeating recording.) You can select “Repeats & 

first run,” “First run only,” which records only new episodes, and “All (with 
duplicates).” 

• Keep Until. (Only available for a repeating recording.) If you change this setting from 

“Space needed” (the default) to “Until I delete,” programs are saved until you delete 
them. If your DVR fills up with programs marked “Until I delete,” it will stop making 
new recordings until you delete some old programs.
