Operating Basics

When the CPU load increases during recording or playing sessions,

a time lag between video and audio may occur. In these cases,

exit WinDVR and all other application and then restart WinDVR.

The video may skip or stop when a shock or vibration is applied to your

computer during recording or playing sessions.

You can use a video deck to send the video data on a tape to this

product. However, if the tape is old or has noise, the copy protection

feature is triggered, which may result in improper operation.

To receive CATV programs, you need to subscribe to a CATV provider

for each device you will use. To watch or record paid programs, you

may have to use a home terminal (adaptor). For more information, refer

to the manual provided with the adaptor, or contact the CATV company.

Contents that are protected by copyright laws may not be recorded or

viewed with WinDVR.

The channel auto scan feature sometimes does not detect channels

even if they are normally detected. If it is the case, use the fine-tuning

feature for adjustment.

When the CPU load gets high, frame drops or a time lag between video

and audio may occur. For this reason, do not use other applications

while WinDVR is running.

Scheduled recording is not available after you have logged off.

WinDVR must be installed using the Administrator account.

When two sequential scheduled recording sessions have been

reserved, the first session will terminate about 2 minutes before the

specified end time. This is because the second session needs a time

for preparation (For example, if two recording sessions of 1:00-2:00pm

and 2:00-3:00pm have been booked, the 1:00-2:00pm session will

terminate about 2 minutes earlier, that is, at about 1:58pm).

When you have set a password for the user account, scheduled

recording cannot be performed if Standby Mode is activated.

Even if you click the Stop Auto Scan button, the scan may not be

stopped due to the timing of processing. In that case, click the button

repeatedly.

If you exit WinDVR one minute or less before the scheduled recording

starts, recording may not be performed correctly. Therefore, do not

close WinDVR during a period of one minute before the scheduled

recording start time.

When video is imported from a video deck or other devices, noise may

appear in the top or bottom part of the screen. This noise is due to the

display areas called vertical blanking intervals, and not a failure.
