Using Twin View

Twin View lets you see two pictures from two sources — from an antenna, VCR, DVD, etc. — on the screen at the same time. You hear the sound from only one of the sources at a time, but you can choose which source’s sound is selected. You can also change the relative size of each of the pictures.

Factors Affecting Twin View

If you use a cable box to view all channels, the same channel appears in both windows of Twin View because the cable box unscrambles only one channel at a time.

If you use a cable box, you can view the cable box output in one Twin View window and view a different source (such as a VCR or DVD player) in the second window by using the TV/VIDEO button. For details, see “Connecting Optional Equipment” on page 22.

Digital sources, as well as any sources connected to the VIDEO 5, VIDEO 6, VIDEO 7 inputs, display in the left window, but not in the right window.

If you are viewing a 4:3 source and a 16:9 enhanced source (such as a DVD) side by side in Twin View, the 4:3 source appears larger.

Twin View does not display channels that are blocked by parental settings (see page 91).
