Notice

Thank you for purchasing a Humax PVR-9300T product.

Freeview Playback explained:

Accurate recording

The start and end times of scheduled recordings will track the signal meaning the recording will start and stop at the times sent by the broadcasters. If a programme starts early or runs late the record time will automatically be adjusted to record the whole programme (page GB40, GB44)

Series Link

If a programme you wish to record is in a series, you can now record the whole series. If the programme changes to a different day or time the PVR-9300T will track these changes and still record the programme. (page GB40, GB41, GB44)

Alternate Instances

If a scheduled recording(s) overlap with other programmes set to record you will be given the option to record one of the programmes later that, day or week, on the same channel or a different channel.

Split Recordings

If a programme has two parts split by another entry in the Guide (e.g. a film divided in to two parts by a News programme) you will be given the option to set both parts to record.(page GB40, GB41, GB44)

Note: The above Freeview Playback features are available on channels where the correct and accurate data is being broadcast. Some channels may not support all services.
