Factors Affecting Twin View
If you use a cable box to view all channels, the same channel appears in
both windows because the cable box unscrambles and sends only one
channel at a time. (To view the picture in dual picture features such as
Twin View, Freeze, etc., see “Cable Box and Antenna” on page 25.)
If you use a cable box and other video equipment, you can view the
cable box output in one window and view a different source (such as a
VCR or DVD player) in the second window by using the
TV/VIDEO
button.
Digital TV channels, as well as any sources connected to the HD/DVD
IN 4-5, and HDMI IN 6-7 inputs display in the left window, but not the
right.
If you are viewing a 4:3 source and a 16:9 enhanced source (such as a
DVD) side by side, the 4:3 source appears larger.
Twin View does not display channels that are blocked by parental lock
settings (see page 92).
