PIP PROBLEMS?

If you are channel surfing and the PIP disappears, you may have tuned to a digital channel. To view PIP and the main picture, make sure that both the main and PIP channels are analog inputs, or signals. Continue changing the channel until you find an analog (NTSC format) channel. The PIP window will reappear.

The message “PIP Not Viewable” in the channel banner lets you know that PIP is not available on this channel and you should tune to another channel.

If you press PIP and the PIP box is grayed, you may have movie or TV rating limits set. These limits may block your access to the PIP channel. For information on removing limits, see the section “Using the Profiles.”

If the PIP window disappears when closed captioning is displayed or you press the MUTE button on the remote control, you have a conflict in your settings. You cannot view PIP when parental controls have blocked the current program or closed captioning is displayed. In order to view PIP, either unlock parental controls or change the closed captioning setting.

You cannot view closed captioning in the PIP window.
