PIP (Picture-in-Picture) Operation

The PIP (picture-in-picture) feature lets you display a second, smaller picture on top of the main picture. Note that PIP is not available for high resolution or component video sources.

PIP Buttons

There are four remote buttons that control the way the PIP window works:

PIP Brings up the PIP window. Press PIP again to remove the window.

Move buttons Let you move the PIP window to different areas of the screen.

SWAP Switches, or “swaps,” the video from the PIP window with the main picture.

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, bring up the Channel Banner (detailed on page 42). The yellow channel number is the one you are controlling.

For instance, press PIP to bring up the PIP window. You can change channels by entering digits or pressing the channel up or down. When you press the CH CTRL button, the channel control switches to the main picture. You can now change channels in the main picture by entering digits or pressing channel up or down.

Tip

A typical use of SWAP is to scan through channels in the PIP window, and when you find a channel you like, press SWAP to display that channel in the main picture, sending the current channel to the PIP window.
