time if your HP Media Center PC has two TV tuners
that have the same type of TV signal input (select
models only).
If a recording error occurs, the program will not be
recorded unless the conflict is resolved. If you try to
schedule a recording and another is already
scheduled for the same time, a conflict window
appears and gives you the option to record the new
program or record the previously scheduled
program.

select
My TV
,
Recorded TV
,
and then
Scheduled
. The Record icon also appears next to
the program in the Guide while you are recording.

complete.
Record Series means that you select to record each
episode of that program from one channel. Media
Center won’t record duplicate episodes. Media
Center also looks for alternative times to record an
episode if a recording conflict arises.
