Digital Lounge, a screen will appear to display
information about the iPod’s status and the

Picture in Picture (PIP) Function
With this function you can watch two video
inputs simultaneously on your Digital Lounge
display. The second video input can either be
shown in the right corner of the display, or the
display can simply be divided in two equally big
squares, each of them showing another video
input. All video inputs that are connected to the
display can be selected to run as a second video
source, however there are some exceptions. If
the HDMI, DVI, or YUV inputs have been chosen
as main video input, the second video input can
not be HDMI, DVI or YUV. Please note that only
the analog TV tuner can be used in connection
with PIP functions. The Digital (DVB-T) Tuner is
not available for PIP use, even if it has been
selected during Setup.
To activate the function, press the Picture in
Picture
(PIP) Button
on the remote con-
trol. You will see that the second source will
appear in a square on the right top of the
screen. At the same time a mini bar will appear
showing the two video inputs currently watched.
The video input shown on the top is the original
video input, and the one shown below is the
second video input. Pressing the
PIP Button
again will show both video inputs in the
same size. Pressing the
PIP Button
a third
time will de-activate the Picture in Picture
function.
