Live Memory
Playback
Equipped with a hard disk drive, this recorder allows informa-
tion to be written to and read from the hard disk at high speeds.
Taking advantage of this feature, you can temporarily record
programs received with the tuner or from an externally-
connected equipment — CATV or DBS, and can watch them
only a few seconds behind actual air time.
In this recorder, viewing a program through HDD (not a
recorded program) means you are always watching the program
temporarily recorded on it.
This feature enables you to reverse the program back to view
any previous part of it — so called “Live Memory Playback”,
which was impossible until now.
To access “Live Memory Playback”, all that you have to do is to
turn on the recorder and select the HDD deck.
So, the temporary recording is started on the HDD deck.
And, you can select the length of the time for temporary
recording from off, 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 3 hours.
About “Live Memory Playback”
With a certain amount of space (for 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 3
hours) reserved on the hard disk, the recorder records broad-
casts being received or signals input from an externally
connected equipment.
Even while you are reversing the program to review any
previous part, the recorder continues recording the same
program or externally-input signals.
When the reserved amount of time (or space) runs out, the
recorder overwrites the previous recordings on the hard disk,
starting with the oldest one, repeatedly if necessary. After having
recorded a certain number of programs, if you try to increase
the amount of your reserved time on HDD, you may not be
allowed to do so because of possible lack of available space,
and the recorder will inform you of this by displaying a message
on the screen.
