Chapter 6 88 Troubleshooting Questions About Conflicts Can I record multiple programs simultaneously? • No. You can watch any program in Now Playing while another is recording. However, you can only record one program at a time on your recorder, because it does not contain the necessary hardware to record two programs at once. The DIRECTV Receiver with TiVo has two tuners and can record two programs at the same time. How can I record a program (or programs) when there is a conflict? • The recorder gives each repeating recording a priority. You can resolve some conflicts in favor of preferred programs by using the Season Pass Manager to change priorities. (See page 48.) • If you encounter a conflict for a single episode, use "View upcoming episodes" to see if the program or episode you want will air at a different time. • You can sometimes resolve recording conflicts by changing the "Stop Time" or "Start Time" Recording Options. (See page 34 for more about Recording Options.) For example, if you set a program to start recording one minute early, it may conflict with a recording that airs right before it. To resolve such a conflict, change the "Start Time" back to "On Time" on the Recording Options screen. • If a single episode of a repeating recording conflicts with another program, you can select that episode in the To Do List and change it independently of the rest of the repeating recording.

Troubleshooting
Questions About Conflicts
Can I record multiple programs simultaneously?
No. You can watch any program in Now Playing while another is recording. However,
you can only record one program at a time on your recorder, because it does not
contain the necessary hardware to record two programs at once. The DIRECTV
Receiver with TiVo has two tuners and can record two programs at the same time.
How can I record a program (or programs) when there is a conflict?
The recorder gives each repeating recording a priority. You can resolve some conflicts
in favor of preferred programs by using the Season Pass Manager to change priorities.
(See page 48.)
If you encounter a conflict for a single episode, use “View upcoming episodes” to see
if the program or episode you want will air at a different time.
You can sometimes resolve recording conflicts by changing the “Stop Time” or “Start
Time” Recording Options. (See page 34 for more about Recording Options.) For
example, if you set a program to start recording one minute early, it may conflict with
a recording that airs right before it. To resolve such a conflict, change the “Start Time”
back to “On Time” on the Recording Options screen.
If a single episode of a repeating recording conflicts with another program, you can
select that episode in the To Do List and change it independently of the rest of the
repeating recording.
