PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP)
Your HITACHI Projection TV incorporates Dual Tuner technology designed for improved viewing enjoyment. This Dual Tuner feature allows you to view antenna inputs on both the main picture and sub-picture simultaneously, with separate tuning control for each. The Dual Tuner can operate with only one input (ANT A only) or two inputs (ANT A and ANT B).
ANT A input can be viewed as both the main picture and the sub-picture simultaneously. ANT B can only be viewed as a main picture. (Component: Y-PBPRinput can be viewed as sub-picture only when SPLIT PIP mode is selected.) To select between main picture and PIP sub-picture tuning, press the PIP CH button on the remote. The highlighted channel display will move with every press of the PIP CH button. When the top channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the main picture. When the lower channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the PIP sub-picture. This method of picture tuning is the same for one antenna input (ANT A only) and two antenna inputs (ANT A and ANT B).
The Picture-in-Picture feature is convenient when you want to watch more than one program at the same time. You can watch a TV
program while viewing other programs from the ANT A source or any of the video inputs. | EXIT |
