I recently bought a Mitsubishi WS-65411 & it has PIP. I have never had a TV with this feature before so it is rather new to me.

My question is: Do you have to have another tuner/vcr hooked up to get separate PIP off cable? I have tried hooking it up every way possible thru the digital cable box & the TV but even though I have the cable box running thru a component input & another one thru a coaxial, they will still only run the same channels together.

My guess is that I will have to hook up a VCR in this area (I was really looking forward to being without one) but I wanted to get any & every opinion before I drag the dinosaur down & hook it up. Thanks.

You shouldn't need a seperate tuner, from what I could find it already has 2 tuner pip. Even if you had another tuner (like a vcr) it wouldn't be able to decode the digital channels, you'd need two digital boxes for that.

The way I have my tv set up with digital cable is like this (I have a Panasonic but it seems like you should have the same cable/antenna inputs):

Cable from the wall into antenna A, from the antenna/rf output to the cable box and then composite from the cable box back into the TV (well, actually, into a replaytv but it's the same idea).

I can use the pip to watch one show and flip through the analog channels, the digital channels all come through another input and need to be changed on the cable box.
