PIP (Picture-in-Picture) Operation
The PIP (Picture-In-Picture) feature lets you display a second, smaller analog (NTSC format) picture on top of
the main analog picture. You will only be able to use the PIP window and main picture with analog channels
and inputs; PIP doesn’t support digital signals. The main and PIP channels must be from different tuners or
inputs; for example, main is from INPUT 1 and PIP is from ANTENNA INPUT. If you are only using tuners for
PIP and main, you must have the main picture from CABLE INPUT and the PIP picture from ANTENNA INPUT,
or vice-versa.
PIP Buttons
There are certain remote buttons that control the way the PIP window
works:
PIP
Brings up the PIP window. Press PIP again to remove the window.
Arrows
Let you move the PIP window to different areas of the screen.
SWAP
Switches the video from the PIP window to the main picture.
FREEZE
Freezes entire screen, including the main picture and PIP
window, if PIP is displayed.
CH CTRL
(Channel Control) Lets you switch channel control between
the PIP window and the main picture. To determine whether you are
controlling the PIP or the main picture, look at the channel banner as you
change channels or press the INFO button. The triangular indicator ( )
beside the channel number lets you know which picture you’re
controlling with channel up/down, number buttons, etc.
Tip
If you want to go directly to an input or channel in PIP
(or main), set up auto tuning and press the component
button (VCR, DVD, etc.).
