ABSTRACT:
A PVR (A) includes an output (70) wherein a TV channel selected for viewing is output, and a storage device (20) that selectively stores a channel indicator (24) therein. A user interface (60) provides means for selectively loading the storage device (20) with a desired channel indicator (24), and means for selecting a TV channel to be sent to the output (70). A buffer (82) is also included. The buffer (82) automatically records the TV channel output for viewing if the storage device (20) has no channel indicator (20) stored therein, and automatically records that TV channel indicated by the channel indicator (24) when one is stored in the storage device (20) even when the TV channel output for viewing is selected to be different from the TV channel indicated by the channel indicator (24).
