Pip Tv Question

[Little6pack]

I Got A Free 27" Mitsubshi Tv From A Board Member (thank You Pronto)

It Has pip Feature Picture In A Picture. How Can I Get It To Work SO I Can Watch 2 Tv Shows At Once?

I Have no Manual - I Have Hooked A 1 To 2 Splitter Up & Have Both Feeds Going Into Tv.

you dont need a splittler..lol you should have the PIP button on your remote.

go to say channel 45 then go to say 36 then hit the PIP button, it should pull up 45 in small area err somthin like that anyway

I tried that.. it only holds the picture in freeze ( you know like the freeze outside)

Dam there is so many buttons on the remote

Hey Steve, it sounds like you are hitting the pause button. I have a Mitsubishi big screen and it has 3 different modes for PIP. Three is a group of 5 buttons in a white outlined box. Does this sound like yours?

My guess is that you only have a single tuner on the tv and you need to hook up a VCR or DVD that has a tuner to get the PIP to work. That's what I had to do with my Magnavox.

Find the model number of the tv and you can probably find the manual online. I'm sure mitsubishi has a website.

Hook up a vcr as your 2nd tuner, or split the cable before the box, and use the cable box as one tuner and the TV's built in turner for the other (will only get basic cable this way on the 2nd screen). I have a dual DVR cable box, a DVD, VCR, and generic cable going into my TV along with 2 video game consoles. Its like a spider web behind my TV. Only problem is that I only have 2 component inputs, 1 s-vid and 5 standard inputs on the back, and 1 in the front.
