I was thinking it meant that the channels would continue to update and refresh at the frequency set but that the videos were not actually playing but now I am not sure.
The way I understand it (and I stand to be corrected) is that without set top mode they only refresh when PTVL is first started. With set top mode they can refresh in a more piecemeal manner while PTVL is running. The idea being that it will be like you set top box where it will update as it goes rather than needing to turn it off and back on again to refresh the EPG.
Basically PTVL has to be running for set top mode to be useful. That means that unless you manually pause it the video will be playing on whatever channel is selected at any given time.
