The Keep at Most option lets you decide how many episodes you want to keep: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10 or All. If you select “All Episodes” for a show that appears many times in the guide, you may ﬁnd it uses disk space rapidly. The Keep Until option lets you keep a recording until you delete it or until the disk is full, in which case the DVR can delete it automatically if the disk ﬁlls up. A recording that is labeled “Keep Until I Delete” will never be deleted until you do it manually. If all of your recordings are labeled that way and the disk ﬁlls up, no new recordings will occur until you manually delete some of your “Keep Until I Delete” recordings. The Start and Stop options let you adjust the times of your recordings to ensure you don’t miss a thing. Keep in mind that starting early and ending late on all of your recordings may create more recording conﬂicts than if you started and stopped on-time (according to the program guide schedule). If you ﬁnd a particular series runs habitually late or early, it is better to adjust that series using the program’s Info screen rather than set the recording defaults, which would affect all of your DVR recordings. Press MENU, select “Manage Recordings”, then select “Series Manager”. Select the program you want to adjust, then select “Series Options”.MMAANAAGE RRRECORRDINNGSCHAPTER 4 - RECORDINGSDRAFTur r elete” e” es of your es of youKeep in mindKeep in mindyour recordings r recordings an if you started and an if you starteogram guide schedulogram guide scheduabitually late or earabitually late orprogram’s Infprogram’s Iich wouich wouecec
