Personal TV Service
WebTV’s Personal TV service is the wave of the future. It gives you the capability never to miss a program and to watch it at your convenience.
With Personal TV you can:
• Schedule programs to record on your Personal TV service or your
VCR
• Play and replay recorded programs
• Receive Instant News from your TV Listings
Personal TV also lets you pause live TV programs. When you’ve paused a program you can then fast forward and rewind through the program as you are watching it. For instance, you can use instant replay to see that winning touchdown again, or skip ahead past a scene you already viewed. Subscription to Personal TV service requires a subscription in addition to your satellite TV service. Call 1-800-333-
DISH (3474) to subscribe.
TV Home
The TV Home screen has a link to Personal TV. A green indicator will light up next to the Personal TV link when a new program has been recorded. During recording the indicator will be red.
Displays Personal TV recording events, and reminders.
Personal TV Listing
Choose Personal TV from TV Home or press the Personal TV button on the remote control. The Personal TV Listing screen lists previously recorded programs, future recording events, TV reminders, and VCR recording events. From this screen you can find information about TV programs that you’ve already recorded and programs that are sched-
6
uled to be recorded in the future. This is also where you choose recorded programs to watch.
Reading Personal TV
Listing
Green listings are recorded programs. Blue listings are recordings or reminders that are scheduled to occur in the future.
The highlighted program is described at the top of the screen.
Recording a Program On Personal TV
Recording a program on Personal TV is like recording a program on your VCR only instead of recording on to a tape, you are recording on to the hard drive of the DISHPlayer receiver. If you record a program on to your Personal TV service and then decide you want a copy saved
for recording (between 4 and 12 hours of record time). Depending on the model of your receiver, the size of the hard drive, and what you are recording, your Personal TV service may erase previously recorded programs if it needs the space to record scheduled recording events.
Note: You cannot change channels while recording. If you try to change channels, a warning panel will appear at the bottom of your screen prompting you to stop recording. Select Stop Recording if you wish to quit recording the current program to Personal TV.

User Guide that came with your DISHPlayer.

Recording, the receiver will stop the VCR from recording at that point.

Schedule Conflicts and Removing Events
TV Listings
TV Listings is your interactive on-line guide to schedule programming on all of the channels you can watch with your DISHPlayer receiver.
Scheduled Recording Events
If you scheduled a program for recording on your DISHPlayer, a red dot will appear next to the name of the program. A red dot inset with a
V indicates that the program will be recorded on your VCR.
The red dot indicates that the event that it is next to will be recorded on your
Personal TV service. If the dot is inset with a V, it will be recorded on your
VCR.
17
Recording Conflicts
If two programs are scheduled to record at the same time, the program that will be recorded will have a red dot next to it and the program that will not be recorded will have an X inset in its red dot.
A red dot inset with an X in the TV Listings screen indicates a recording event that will not be recorded due to a schedule conflict.
Schedule Conflicts

listing, choose the program from your Personal TV listing.
Choose Don’t Record (or Don’t Remind for reminders).
The cancelled event will be removed from the Personal TV listing screen.
Enhanced TV Pause
The Enhanced TV Pause feature, available as part of the Personal TV service, lets you pause the television program you are watching as often as you like. Unlike the standard TV Pause feature, Enhanced TV
Pause has an extended time of delay. After pausing, you can resume watching where you left off, whenever you are ready. You can also
Rewind, Fast Forward, Instant Replay, and Skip Ahead in the paused and recorded programs. While you are watching the delayed portion of the program, the rest of the program is recorded as it airs.
This means that you never have to miss a program again.
An important note to remember when using Enhanced TV Pause is that the feature affects only the channel you are currently watching. The other television channels will continue at their normal time. Remember that Enhanced TV Pause is stopped if you change channels, but not if you go to TV Home or Web Home.
19
Pausing a Program
Press the Pause button on the remote control ( ).
How Enhanced TV Pause
Works
When you tune to a channel, your receiver automatically starts recording the program you are watching.

The program stops and pause indicator appears on the right side of the screen.
Resume Watching a Program
Press the Play button on the remote control ( ).

The Options panel displays the title of the program, the status (i.e. delayed), length of the program, and time remaining.
Or
• Press the Channel button (+ or -) on your remote control or keyboard and select Go Live.
Viewing Live TV
Live programming means you are watching the channel in real time, with no
delay.
This removes the delay. You will now see the TV program as it is currently being broadcast. Your Personal TV service will not erase the saved program (unless you change channels) and will continue to record the program. This will allow you to still have the ability to rewind and pause as often as you like.
21
