Picture in Picture (PIP)
The concurrent display of two different images is referred to as Picture 
in Picture.
➠  The coloured buttons do not work as described below for TV sets with 
MHEG-5 software, but they operate as described on page 36 (Digital 
Teletext).
➠ 
A concurrent display of two HDTV signals is not possible.
➠ A concurrent display of two coded stations is not possible.
➠ Picture change and station selection is restricted during recording.
➠ In sets without Digital Recorder, the PIP mode is restricted to AV-PIP (one 
TV station and one AV source). If a satellite tuner is upgraded in these 
sets, PIP mode from digital satellite picture and analogue picture via cable 
TV or house antenna is possible additionally.
Your TV set distinguishes between two PIP displays:
 Split Screen In this case screen is divided in the middle and the additonal 
PIP image is shown on the right side of the screen. Both 
images are compressed horizontally and each gets half of 
the screen.
  Small PIP  In this case a small PIP image is inserted in the TV picture.
The PIP operation distinguishes between two functionalities:
  Standard PIP  Stations freely selectable and changeable for PIP and TV 
picture (coloured buttons have PIP-specific meaning, see 
below).
  iPIP  Only in sets with Digital Recorder: The TV picture is moved 
to the PIP picture when you press the PIP button. The sta-
tion of the TV picture is now freely selectable. When you 
press the PIP button again, the PIP picture returns to the TV 
picture and the PIP window closes.

that the operation refers to the main picture. If the frame is 
blue, the station scan is active in the PIP picture. If the iPIP 
function is activated, this is indicated by an orange frame.
