About the Digital Recorder system
Your Loewe TV set is equipped with a Digital Recorder that includes a hard
disk. You can use this to record and playback picture and sound from TV
programmes, like with a VCR or DVD recorder. However, the possibilities
of the Digital Recorder are for more versatile than those of a VCR or DVD
recorder:
TV viewing with time shift
The Digital Recorder always records the TV programme currently playing (if
the continuous operation is switched on).
• Time shift
You can stop a TV programme at any time and continue playing it
later with a time shift. The maximum time shift may be set to 2 hours.
The recording starts again from the beginning and the old content is
deleted every time you switch stations.
• Fast navigation by jumping
Jump backwards and forwards in the movie at the press of a button.
The jump distance is adjustable.
In addition, the special Loewe function ”Smart jump“ ensures that for
each change in jump direction the jump distance is cut in half. This
way you can feel your way quickly to a certain spot in the time shift
playback.
• Fast forward and rewind
You can fast forward and rewind at three different speeds in the pro-
gramme you are viewing with time shift.
• Slow motion
You can watch the programme you are viewing with a time shift at four
different slow motion speeds.
• Subsequent archive recording
You can also decide to copy the whole TV programme into the Digital
Recorder‘s archive at the end of a TV programme you have been
watching with a time shift.
• Setting bookmarks
During a football match, for example, you can fl ag goals or exciting
scenes. For this, the time-shift recording is converted into an archive
recording. For later playback, you can play bookmarks as highlights. 30
seconds before and after the set bookmark are played.
• Replay function
For instance, if you see a football match as live picture, you can jump
back 40 seconds at the push of a button and watch the scene again.
You see the live picture at the same time in a PIP picture.
Digital Recorder archive
You can record movies you want to watch later in the Digital Recorder‘s
archive. The archive holds between 20 and 100 hours of movies, depend-
ing on the recording quality set.
If EPG or teletext data are available, the Digital Recorder stores the title and
additional information about each programme in the archive.
You start playing your recordings from the archive.
If bookmarks were set, these recordings are fl agged accordingly. You can
then start playback so that the bookmarks are played as highlights.
Select your favourite programme comfortably from the EPG or teletext for
recording and watch the programmes later from the Digital Recorder‘s
archive.
An automatic delete manager always ensures there is suffi cient recording
space for new movies.
• Sort titles
You can have the programmes displayed chronologically or in alphabeti-
cal order. This way you can quickly fi nd the movie you want to watch.
• Edit titles
You can change the title of a programme in the archive, if necessary.
• Parental lock
Protect archive recordings from unauthorised access by using the
parental lock.
• Delete protection
Set the delete protection for a movie to prevent it from being deleted
automatically by the Delete Manager.
• Copy
Set the delete protection for a movie to prevent it from being deleted
automatically by the Delete Manager.
