Audio split mode

The 650R is able to allow the user to listen to one source whilst viewing
another. For instance this can be useful if it is desired to watch a sports
channel from say a set-top/satellite video source whilst getting audio
commentary from the Radio Tuner. Another example might be to listen to a
CD whilst watching a video channel, perhaps waiting for a TV programme to
start.
1. First select the Video channel you wish to watch in the normal way.
2. Press and hold down the button for the channel you wish to listen to. After
4 seconds approx "Audio Split" will scroll across the display and you will
now be listening to the other source.
Note: You can only 'split' to a source where Analogue, Digital or Analogue Stereo
Direct is the current input type. The 650R will not allow splitting to an HDMI source.

To cancel audio split mode simply select a new source and normal operation
will be resumed.

Recorder 1/2

Recorder 1 as well as having various video and audio inputs has recording
outputs for Composite video, S-Video, digital audio and analogue audio.
Whatever source is selected for viewing/listening via the main outputs will
also be automatically sent to the Recorder 1 outputs for recording purposes.
Recorder 1 would typically be used for a DVD-R/RW, VCR or other device with
audio and video recording capability.
Recorder 2 has analogue and digital audio outputs only. Additionally the
Recorder 2 outputs are completely independent from the main listening and
Recorder 1 outputs and are separately set in the OSD.
This means it's possible to watch (and optionally record via Rec 1) one
source whilst recording another source via Rec 2. Recorder 2 would typically
be used with a Tape/MD/CD-R machine with audio recording capability.
Select the 'Rec.2 Output Select' menu and press Enter. Use the Left and
