PIP Overview
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 Entertainment Machine eliminates that need
by giving you two tuners on one TV. 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 channels using the main picture.
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. This can be adjusted under the Source menu (see page
21).
PIP can be used in any picture mode. Put Antenna/Cable in the
inset while you watch a tape. Attached to Video 1, have a DVD
disc going in the PIP inset while you watch a tape on the main
screen.
POSSIBLE REASONS FOR ADJUSTING PIP SOURCE
1. You want to watch a video tape, 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 choose a different channel on Antenna/Cable.
