Twin View
Problem
Possible Remedies
I cannot get Twin View to work
s
If you are using a cable box to unscramble all channels (as shown on page 26), you
cannot use the Twin View feature. This is because the cable box can unscramble
only one channel at a time. But if you need the cable box to unscramble only some
(usually premium) channels, you can use Twin View for unscrambled channels if
you connect both a cable and cable box, as shown on page 25.
s
You can use Twin View to view a signal from a different source that is connected to
the TV's A/V jacks (such as a VCR or DVD player) in the second window by
pressing the
TV/VIDEO
button while in Twin View.

Digital sources, as well as any sources connected to the VIDEO 4, VIDEO 5,
VIDEO 6 inputs, display in the left window, but not in the right windows.

airing.

TV/VIDEO
