See two sources at the same time
Your remote control gives you access
to a dual-screen function for viewing
two video sources at the same time.
You can also bring up a video source
and an audio source at the same
time. For example, you can view
video playback and a TV programme
at the same time, provided that the
selected sources are available in your
television.
While watching a programme or
recording, you can divide the screen
between the current programme or
recording (picture A in the second
illustration) and a new programme or
recording (picture B). You can also
swap the two pictures at any time.
You cannot watch two recordings at the same
time.
You can view two HDMI sources at the same time,
but only if one of the sources is connected to
either the HDMI A or HDMI B socket, and the
other source is connected to either the HDMI C or
HDMI D socket. For further information about the
HDMI sockets, refer to the chapter ‘Connection
panels’ on page 22 in the Reference book.
