You press Info (i) button when the screen shows nothing but the channel. On the left side of the info box that appears there are 5 option icons. Each time you press down arrow it changes the selected option and the contents in the main part of the box. The bottom option is the tuners, the icon looks like 3 stacked dishes.
Press down arrow button until you highlight the bottom option for the tuners. It will then display the channels and current programme name for the the 5 tuners you
aren't watching. Press right arrow to highlight top tuner, press down from there to select the other 4 tuners. Once you have decided when tuner you want to change press OK button. The screen will now show that channel.
Change channel as per normal by typing channel number. Then repeat this process for every tuner you want to set. You then go on watching whatever one of the 6 tuners you feel like, knowing that you can go to any of the 6 channels and rewind them if you want to.
Unless a recording kicks in. If the recording isn't from one of channels the tuner is on the box will select one of the 5 you aren't watching to use for the recording, and you can be sure which one. And if you put the box into standby it loses the buffer, though it will awake in the same channels unless the box has been rebooted for any reason, in which case it shows VM previews on them. So this isn't foolproof, but it can be handy.
