Im sorry for all these beginner questions, this looks like a neat operating
system though. If im watching live tv and i hit record will it just record
until i tell it to stop, or does it just stop at the end of the shows time
in the guide. ex. *say im watching the simpsons and i start recording it 10
minutes into the show, and i just want the simpsons recorded, will it just
record the simpsons or will it keep going until i push stop? Should i go to
the schedule recording for it to stop at the end of the simpsons and not go
any futher?

sorry again for these long posts, im pretty new

Chris

It will record until the end of the show as specified in the EPG.

So if the show is scheduled to end at 10:30pm and you start recording at
10:25pm, the recording will stop at 10:30pm.
