Picture-In-Picture Overview
PIP = Picture-In-Picture
Think of PIP as a mini TV screen superimposed onto your main TV screen
Press PIP on the remote to place the PIP inset on the screen, press PIP again to remove it
YOUR PICTURE-IN-PICTURE FEATURE
The Picture-In-Picture (PIP) function allows you to put a smaller
picture, called the “inset,” on the bigger screen, or the “main”
picture.
You will need to have another source, (audio/video device con-
nected to the TV) like a VCR; to use as a source to display an
additional picture.
Don’t want to miss any of the big game, but hate commercials?
When the broadcaster breaks for a commercial, just tune the VCR
to the channel with the game being broadcast for the PIP inset,
and Surf your favorite channels on the main picture screen.
WORKING WITH PIP
Just like your Entertainment Machine’s main screen, PIP will need
a source to take its image from.
PIP Sources
Antenna/Cable, Video 1, Video 2, F Video. S-Video sources can
also be used for the PIP picture.
SOME TYPICAL PIP/MAIN SCREEN VIEWING SETUPS
1. You want to watch a videotape, but keep scanning for another
movie or game. Set the PIP source to Video 1, or 2 and you can
watch the VCR and TV, swapping between the two.
2. You want to watch your favorite live program on Antenna on
the main screen and when a commercial break appears, swap to
the PIP inset; which has a videotape in the VCR ready to play, or
Surf your favorite channels using the Antenna source for the PIP
inset.
3. To monitor an infant asleep, connect a camcorder to F Video
for the PIP source and watch a TV channel from the
Antenna/Cable source on the main picture screen.
If no equipment is connected to a source you select for the
PIP inset, or if it is turned off, the PIP inset will be black.
