4.1.3 Picture in Picture

Since it has two tuners, your PVR can record two different channels at the same time, as we’ve already seen. It can also allow you to watch two different channels at the same time, too, using Picture in Picture (PiP).

To start PiP, just press the button on the remote control. A small picture will appear in the top right section of the screen. Each time you press PiP move again, it will move one position clockwise around the screen,

Pressing PiP move when you have moved the small picture to the top left section of the screen will hide the small picture.

At first, the picture will show a smaller version of the channel that you’re watching; you can change the channel in the small picture by pressing the White button on the remote control.

Just select a channel from the list that appears, and the small pic- ture will change to that channel.

If you change channels in the normal way, the small PiP will stay on the channel it was previously set to, and the main pic- ture will change; you’ll always hear the sound from the main picture, rather than the smaller one.

At any time, you can swap between the two pictures, making the main one smaller and the small one larger, by pressing the button.
