Hi Alex

Thanks for the response but I think you misread my original post, I do
have multiple inputs (4 separate physical tuners set up as 2 tuner
multirec so 8 virtual tuners).  If you have a multiple tuner setup
watch live TV, press "V" to give you PiP and then press "Y" - I think
you'll find that nothing happens?

Regards
