THE PVR-READY FUNCTION VIA THE USB PORT

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
A
The WAMBA ® HD receiver is PVR-Ready. This signifies that you can connect a recording medium onto the
USB port of the receiver and record your satellite programs.
Recognition of the recording medium (external hard disk or USB key) by your WAMBA
in most cases. It may happen, however, that your WAMBA
external hard drive/USB key you have connected. It will suggest to you to format your recording medium
in order that you can use it with your WAMBA
will not be used by WAMBA ® HD.
Once the recording medium is connected and recognized you can, in total simplicity, record a program
and/or program recordings (more information on page 33).
In video mode, you access several functions relative to your hard disk/USB key by pressing the
button and selecting "Go to recording medium functions". You can:
Show your support properties. You can also see the available space remaining on your disk/USB key.
Format your recording medium.
Do a test of your recording medium. Essentially, certain mediums are not of sufficiently rapid access for
allowing one or several simultaneous HD recordings. The diagnostic function allows you to evaluate the
performance of your recording medium. 3 types of messages can appear:
- "USB medium not adapted for digital recording".
- "USB medium allowing a single HD recording", in other words a single HD recording at a time.
- "USB medium adapted to all recording types". This then concerns a medium allowing several
simultaneous HD recordings.
NOTES
B
Once you have started recording, your access to channels is limited. You can only watch programs received
on the same frequency as that of the program you are recording. In the list of channels, radio stations or Fa-
vourites, the icon will appear opposite programs you can no longer view.
Programs recorded on a storage device connected to the USB port of the WAMBA
read via this same receiver, except where this program is unencrypted.
