UPC - question about pause/recording tv

beglee

I wanna watch the Real vs Barca match tonight in full, but am playing footy myself and wont get home til 830/845. So what is my best option for delayed viewing of this match with a UPC digital+ box?

If i get the missus to pause tv (on itv/rte) at kickoff, surely it should be no problem for it to stay paused there until i get back, then hit play and watch it all from there?

If i get the missus to just record the match, will i have to wait til its finished recording before i can watch it?


Im probably overthinking this, but some clarification would be nice beforehand so i dont screw it up

Get her to record it. You can start watching it from the start before the recording has finished.

Defo record it you never know something could happen to the programme while paused.

Bit late now, but it will only pause for 90mins iirc so you would want to record it. You can start watching it while its still recording, you dont need to wait for it to finish

Cheers lads, worked a treat

Great goals by Messi BUT apparently you're not allowed tackle Barca players.
