Two-Tuner PIP Overview
PIP = Picture-In-Picture
Think of PIP as a mini TV screen superimposed onto your main TV screen
Press PIP on the remote to place the PIP inset on the screen, press PIP again to remove it
YOUR PICTURE-IN-PICTURE FEATURE
The Picture-In-Picture (PIP) function allows you to put a smaller
picture, called the "inset," on the bigger screen, or the "main"
picture.
Normally you would need some other piece of equipment, like a
VCR, to act as a tuner to receive and display a second channel at
the same time. Your TV eliminates that need by giving you two
tuners on one TV, on the Antenna/Cable source. PIP is always
available, no matter what equipment you have.
Don't want to miss any of the big game, but hate commercials?
Just put the game in the PIP inset, and Surf your favorite chan-
nels on the main picture screen.
WORKING WITH PIP
Just like your Entertainment Machine's main screen, PIP will need
a source to take its image from. Set the main screen source to
Antenna/Cable, then set the PIP source to Antenna/Cable, as an
example. Then if you use the TV's tuner to pick your channels, you
can enjoy 2-tuner PIP; channel scan capability for both the main
screen and the PIP inset.
PIP can be used in any picture mode. Put Antenna/Cable in the
inset while you watch a video tape, from a VCR connected to
Video 1. Have a DVD disk playing in the PIP inset, while you
watch a videotape on the main screen.
SOME TYPICAL PIP/MAIN SCREEN VIEWING SETUPS
1. You want to watch a videotape, but keep scanning for another
movie or game. Set the PIP source to Video 1, or 2 and you can
watch the VCR and TV, swapping between the two.
2. You want to watch your favorite live program on Antenna/Cable
on the main picture and when a commercial break appears, swap
to the PIP inset; which has a videotape in the VCR ready to play,
or Surf your favorite channels using the Antenna/Cable source for
the PIP inset.
