Your Beo4 remote control gives you access to a dual-screen function for viewing two video sources at the same time. For example, you can view a video tape playback and a TV programme at the same time, provided that the selected sources are available in your system.
While watching a programme or recording, you can divide the screen between the current programme or recording (picture A in the second illustration) and a new programme or recording (picture B). You can also swap the two pictures at any time.
Volume adjustment with Beo4 always affects picture A, while other Beo4 operations, such as selecting programs, affect picture B. Choosing a new source cancels dual-screen viewing.
