If a show is currently being recorded, the Record icon also
appears in the taskbar on the desktop. If you move your
mouse over the icon, the Media Center displays which show
is currently being recorded. You can right-click the icon to
open Media Center and stop recording.
Media Center automatically records until the show is
scheduled to be over as listed in the TV Guide. To make sure
your show is being recorded, you can select TV Guide from
the My TV screen. The Record icon should appear next to the
show in the TV Guide while you are recording. The Record
icon disappears when the recording is complete.
If there is a recording conflict or error, the Record Conflict
icon appears next to the show in the TV Guide. This means
the show will not be recorded unless the conflict is resolved.
You can resolve recording conflicts on the Scheduled screen.
Recording TV tips
❖ If you are watching live TV during a scheduled recording
time, you can watch only the show being recorded. If you
change channels, the recording stops.
❖ If you go to another area in the Media Center, the TV
channel you last selected will be displayed in the inset
window at the bottom of the window.
❖ When scheduling a recording in the TV Guide, you can
press the Record button once to record a show, twice to
record a series, or three times to cancel a scheduled
recording you just selected.
❖ Multiple record icons (red dots) next to a show indicates
that Media Center is set to record the series.
❖ When you press the Record button to record a show you
are watching, the recording automatically stops at the end
of the show’s regularly scheduled end time.
