GB 28HARD DISK RECORDINGIt is important for you to also be aware of the followingfacts concerning the hard disk recording• Only the channel whose number is shown in the display on thebox can be recorded. This means, that you can not watch e.g.channel 4 and record e.g. channel 8 at the same time.• A big benifit that the built in hard disk possess, but the ana-logue video recorder lacks, is the possibility for you to startwatching the playback of a programme while the record-ing of the same programme is still in progress. This possi-bility is utilized at the “Pause recording” procedure which isdescribed further on in this manual.• Note! Pause recordings will not work if you are watchinga programme ordered via KIOSK (Canal Digital’s pay-per-view).• CAUTION! Unauthorized recording of TV programmes orother material may infringe the copyright and be contraryto the copyright laws.About hard disk recordingAs you probably already know this box is equipped with a builtin Personal Active Disc. This is a hard disk, similar to those in or-dinary Personal Computers (PCs). On this hard disk it is possibleto record about 15-20 hours of TV and radio programmes.To get the most out of the disk recording procedure, follow thesesimple tips to keep the disk well prepared for coming recordings.In this way you will avoid messages on the screen saying thingslike “Time available: Less than 1 hour” 5 seconds before you wantto make a two hour recording from a live performance of your fa-vourite pop group; or “The current recording was stopped be-cause there was not enough space on the disk”. As we all know,those messages always appear when we least want them to.• Make a practice to clean the disk from recordings that are nolonger needed.• Recordings that you want to keep, you can transfer to a tradi-tional analogue Video Recorder.

But remember, absolutely everything will beerased.• We suggest that you spend some time testing all functions un-til you get familiar with them. This will save you a lot of frus-tration when the moment for making and watching a record-ing becomes reality. After the practice you can just erase thedisk and it will be ready to start from scratch.
