nonelected invention. An amendment after final rejection was
filed on September 25, 1997 and was entered by the examiner.
The disclosed invention pertains to a method and

source of program material from a beginning, after the
beginning of the program material has passed, comprising:
a. a recording device;
b. a delayed recording circuit configured to introduce
delay between said source and said recording device and to
activate said recording device to record information from said
source from the beginning after said delay; and
d. a start-of-program detector which detects the start
