PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP) Your Hitachi Projection TV incorporates Dual Tuner technology designed to give you improved viewing enjoyment. This Dual Tuner feature allows you to view antenna inputs on both MAIN and PIP sub-pictures 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 main picture and sub-picture, simultaneously. To select between Main Picture and PIP subpicture tuning, press the PIP CH button on the remote. The arrow next to the channel display will move with every press of the PIP CH button. When the arrow is next to the top channel display, channel tuning is for the Main Picture. When the arrow is next to the lower channel display, 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.
