RYAN! PUT THAT DOWN! YOU KNOW YOU’D BE POTTY IF YOU DIDN’T EXPLORE ALL THE WONDERFUL FEATURES FREEVIEW+ HAS TO OFFER!
NOW COME ON!
THEY’RE SIMPLE TO GET TO GRIPS WITH!
Ok, in your Freeview + Digital TV Recorder, there’s a bevy of treats for you to enjoy. Now Lets start with recording a programme. Go into your TV guide and use the arrow key to advance through the programming schedule to whatever you’d like to record. Select the programme, or movie AND THAT’S IT! ALL Freeview recorders have a 7-day programme guide, so you can set to record well in advance of the programme being on. And some Freeview recorders will let you watch a different programme to the one you are recording.
WONDERFUL WOULD YOU NOT AGREE? NOW, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO RECORD AN ENTIRE SERIES?
NOW THIS IS ALMOST AS SIMPLE. Again, go to your TV guide and use the arrow key to find the programme you’d like to record. If it’s a series, you’ll be given an option to record the WHOLE SERIES. Select, and BOB’S YOUR UNCLE! Most machines have around 100 hours of programme storage – WHICH SHOULD BE ENOUGH FOR ANYONE!
Now Ryan. Come out of the television guide for a moment and, ahh…
(OOS telephone rings)
OK! DON’T FEAR. PRESS THE PAUSE BUTTON ON YOUR FREEVIEW REMOTE CONTROL!
Brian:
(on telephone, cutting Ryan off) TIS ONLY ME! HA HA HA!!
(back in the room) OH DEAR, FORGIVE ME AND MY JUVENILE JAPES… BUT WHAT BETTER WAY TO ILLUSTRATE – If your viewing is interrupted for WHATEVER reason, then pausing live television means you never have to miss the action. When you want to resume simply press play AND AWAY YOU GO!
And if you miss something the first time round, then rewind - AND WATCH AGAIN!
