Pausing Your Downloads<br />

If your home network gets congested, you can always pause your DIRECTV<br />

on Demand downloads by pressing the YELLOW button in the VOD Queue<br />

page. Press the YELLOW button a second time to resume the download.<br />

Highlight a show and press the RED button to delete it from the queue.<br />

To get to the VOD Queue page from Live TV, press MEnU, select “Manage<br />

Recordings”, then select “VOD Queue”.<br />

Playing Your Downloaded Shows<br />

Once the program has started downloading, it will appear in your Playlist<br />

since it is being saved on the hard drive like the rest <strong>of</strong> your recorded shows.<br />

The download rate depends completely on the speed <strong>of</strong> your broadband<br />

connection. If fast, you can start watching your show immediately while it is<br />

downloading. If the connection is slow or your home network is congested,<br />

you may start watching the show, but hit a pause while the recorder waits<br />

for the broadband connection to download more <strong>of</strong> the show. The color <strong>of</strong> the<br />

download progress bar indicates whether you will hit a pause. Green means<br />

that you will not hit a pause. Yellow means that you might. Red means that<br />

you will eventually hit a pause if you start watching now.<br />

You can easily tell which shows in your Playlist came from DIRECTV on<br />

Demand by the “VOD” label next to the program title. “VOD” stands for<br />

“Video on Demand”.<br />
