Hi, just got the 30" Syntax dual-tuner TV and am hoping someone can help me with the PIP problem I have. I can get the small PIP screen to show up, but it only shows the same program as on the main screen. Since it is a dual-tuner TV I should not need the VCR to connect this.
Here is my connection:
wall cable to cable box (analog)in. Out from cable box to TV RF. I also have a Playstation and CD movie player connected via composite cable and S cable, both work perfectly well on PIP.
The only thing I cannot get going is watching 2 different TV programs. Does it have anything to do with the kind of cable box I have? Do I have to worry about A/V switches and such?
I have both the main picture and second picture set to TV.
Anything you can recommend that may help getting the best picture (maybe if there is a better way to hook everything up or better cables to use) wil be appreciated.
Thank you so much.

Hello Claudia,
I haven't seen one of these Syntax TVs in person but i also own flat panel TVs with dual tuner for the PIP, so i might be able to help you.
When you activate the Picture-in-Picture feature, do you see any icons or indications on the screen that will inform you to press another button on the remote in order to change the channel and have control over the PIP?
