    8-day Electronic Programme Guide

    You want to know what programmes are available today and for the next 7 days so that you can avoid missing your favourite shows by planning your evenings or making pre-scheduled recordings. The data is broadcast by the programme broadcaster, and when this data is available, the product compiles the information and lists it in the TV Guide. Simply enter the menu or press the GUIDE button on the remote control to access the programme guide. The programme guide will provide programme information listings for today and the next 7 days.

    Ability to pause and rewind live TV

    A live TV programme is now under your control. You can pause the programme by pressing the PAUSE button and resume playback at the point where it was interrupted by pressing the PLAY button. You can go backwards by pressing the FAST REWIND button and replay scenes you have already watched. If you want to return to the live TV programme, just press the STOP button.

    Never miss an episode with Series Recording

    Programming recording of a series becomes as simple as recording a single event. By pressing a few buttons you can programme the recording of all the events belonging to one series. Press the GUIDE button to open the Electronic Programme Guide, select the programme you want to record and press the OK button to confirm the programming of the recording. If the selected programme is signalled by the series logo on the Electronic Programme Guide screen, you programme the recording of all the events in the series at once.

    One touch recording

    Set a recording by pressing just one button on the remote control. Programming no longer required.

    Optimal sound quality with Dolby Digital 5.1 output

    Because Dolby Digital standards, the world's leading digital multi-channel audio standards, make use of the way the human ear naturally processes sound, you experience superb quality surround sound audio with realistic spatial cues.

    Standby consumption < 0.5 W

    The smart power management of the receiver leads to power saving in standby mode. The receiver goes to the standby mode that achieves < 0.5 W power consumption automatically, without your intervention.
