If you are using a cable box to unscramble all channels (as shown on
page 20), 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 18.
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/VDEObutton while in Twin View.
Sources connected to the AUX, VIDEO 5, VIDEO 6, and VIDEO 7 inputs

Twin View cannot display
anything but TV channels

Be sure the Twin View window is set to a xr ideo• input or channel • that has a
signal airing.
You might be tuned to a x ideo input with nothing connected to it Try
cycling through the video inputs by pressing the TV/VIDEObutton.
If you connected equipment to the TV's AUX jack, it will display in the left
Twin View window, but not the right.
Try cycling through the video inputs by pressing the TV/VDEO button.
Check that the Video labe_option is not set to Skip. (See the Setup Menu on
page 73.)
