Many customers of SD as well as HD, HD Recorders are experiencing the Error Code SM1. This is due to some technical problem with Airtel and we all hope this will be rectified soon.

As far as the Disk space, wait for the reply from @Pradeep.

Airtel just claims 550 hours without mentioning the format of the content. I doubt it could hold that many hours of HD content. Around 80 hrs of HD content seems more like it.

From the description, it says that 320GB HD will have upto 550 hours storage capacity (earlier, somewhere I read that 550hours SD recording!). The Old SD Recorder have the capacity as per the manual was 160GB which can record upto 150hours SD contents. (I have this Recorder but I never loaded upto its full capacity so far, but I realized from what I recorded, in all probability this one will take close to 150hours recording).

Well I too got a new HD Recorder installed on 25th evening and got the channels activated the next day but after going through the functions yesterday I noticed that 3D Ready as well as the Watch One Record One features were not available. On checking the carton I find that it is a Jan '11 product. Though it is working fine I have written to their CC seeking clarifications.

Congratulations on your new purchase. Enjoy it.
Airtel recorders have the feature of watching one programme whilst recording another programme, irrespective of what is written in the manual or instructions as far as the dish is connected with twin LNB with two cables coming to the STB.!

Will check that out then, yes there are two cables as required for a recorder.

I got my HD DVR today from Airtel. The following features are not mentioned anywhere in the instruction manual or the carton of the set up box. Can some body explain whether actually these features are present or not.

Slow Motion
3D ready
Fast Forward
Watch One Record One

A quick response will really help ease off my concern.

Thanks
Himanshu

Hi

these are there if you have DTH DVR

Slow Motion (u can watch live in slow motion while using this feature it use HDD for recording and play it in slow motion)
3D ready
Fast Forward (recorded programmes can be fast forwarded obviously not live tv)
Watch One Record One (while watching live or recording you can record another live channels and also u can record 2 live channels while watching recorded programme)

I hope above are clear

all other user of HD Dvr can correct me if something needs to be corrected or added

**nairrk** · 01-21-2012, 12:44 PM

slow motion works as - Simply pause a channel or any of your recorded programme and press forward once to start slow motion. Press the play button to get back to normal speed. (This feature is there even in old SD Recorders).

3D ready - you may need a 3D tv and 3D programme to get original 3D effect.

Fast Forward - as said above, recorded programmes can be fast forwarded. Also you can 'pause' any live programme (incase you want to avoid ads etc?) and then after some time you can fast forward the unwanted portion from that particular programme..

Hi,

The box says it is [HD] Recorder.

These features are not mentione in the instruction manual nor on the carton of the setup box. So, asked it.

Say for example slow motion. on the universal remote there is no button to run in slow motion.

Also, setup box or manual doesn't say anything about being 3D ready.

Please help
