I am confused about the time slip feature on DVD RAM machines.

As I understand it, a Sky+ box allows one to pause and rewind live tv.
How does it do this, does it 'record' the programme you are watching
into a buffer? How far back can you go?

As for time slip, if I am watching a programme and want to rewind it, I
presume this is not possible unless I have actually told the machine to
record it, but then I'd need to delete it from the disc after i have
watched it if I have no need of it again?

Is that right?
