24 hours a day, seven days a week, there are almost endless programs on TV. Improved DVR controls and features will keep you from missing the best of them. As you explore the DVR menu you’ll discover features that will help you easily record programs. For instance, by linking DVR with the i-Guide we make it possible to find shows up to two weeks in advance and set them to record with the touch of a button.
Access DVR via the “DVR” button on your remote, the DVR icon on the Quick Menu, or from the Main Menu.
One Touch Recording
Press “Record” on your remote any time while watching TV or while navigating through the guide
For programs airing now, recording begins immediately at the point you pressed “Record”
You can automatically schedule recordings for programs starting at a later time or date by pressing “Record” while in the listings
Recording will start at the program’s scheduled start time

Your DVR lets you record multiple episodes of a program according to your preferences.
