Live Buffer Live Buffer Your DVR saves programs to the hard drive instantly and continuously, while you watch. This "live buffer" lets you pause, rewind, fast forward or instant replay (jump back 6 seconds). If you start watching a program late, even if it is not set to record, you can back up to the beginning (up to 90 minutes) using REWIND, as long as you haven't changed channels since the program started. Simply press PLAY during a show to display the progress bar and see how far back in time you can go. Note: You cannot fast forward during live TV until you pause or rewind a program. Standard-Definition DVRs If you change channels, you lose what is in the live buffer. If you want to flip between two shows at the same time and not lose the ability to go back in time on either channel you can record them both and then use the PREV(ious) button on the remote to toggle between them.
