Does this tv have pip

Not to my knowledge, though given I am running it through an AV receiver it might not allow for it and I just don't know. Frankly, the picture is so amazing that it really won't be missed. It's honestly the best picture you can buy out there--if you like plasmas. I have not spent one day thinking twice about my choice

No, I don't think so. We used to have pip in our old television....we hardly ever used it. This picture is too beautiful to complicate it with another picture.

I don't believe that it does. I do have an HDMI line but I think it came with a TV a bought.

I believe it does, next to the "audio digital out" on the back. It was a gift, so I do not have the TV here and cannot give you a definite.

Mine does not. There are no settings or menu items to change to PIP. No options on remote.

Of course, look at the spec closer, pc input for PIP. A couple of ways to do it. Also most computers/ laptop have DVI and HDMI. And there are cable with one side is DVI and the other side is HDMI. Again there is the regular PC monitor input out for older computers/laptops.

Yes and No... PIP on this TV lets you view 1 digital (HDMI) input and 1 analog (coax, composite, component, or VGA/RGB) input at the same time. You cannot view 2 digital inputs or 2 analog inputs at the same time. Assuming you are using HDMI for both your computer and cable/sat, you will need to switch one of them to an analog input to use the PIP feature for it. You could either use VGA for your computer, or use component for your cable/sat (both are capable of HD, so you really don't lose anything, you just need some extra cables). The easiest solution would be to use VGA for your computer instead of HDMI/DVI (most video card outputs have at least one combination DVI port which can output VGA with a cheap adapter, these adapters are usually included with the video cards, or the computer if the card came preinstalled). If VGA is not an option for you, then you will have to use an analog connection for your cable/sat. Most cable/sat receiver boxes have multiple video outputs that can be hooked up and used simultaneously. You can leave your HDMI hooked up, and simply add component cables to it, just remember to switch your TV input over to component when you need to use PIP. NOTE: Unlike HDMI, which carries both video and audio, analog video cables only carry video signals, so you will also need to run stereo RCA cables as well to get sound through the TV.

Yes it does have a freeze button. And it works on my 42" Vizio TV. I never use PIP so I don't know how that works

No there is not, PIP is to display 2 cable channels at the same time with the cable going straight to your TV. No there is not a device that will do what you are wanting

well, there is a functionality that displays on the screen the other sources in small windows if that's what you mean. But I think that your television set fas to be compatible, PIP or picture in picture.

It does, 3 months but I never used it and I have the TV since last Christmas.

PIP feature came into TVs way back in 80s and never got popular due to inconvenience it causes to eyes. I am not sure why people are so concerned about it now on LCD tvs? I would like to understand if there is something NEW that I've n't understood?

Yes but PIP only works when I have my external DVD player attached. I can play a DVD and watch a television channel at the same time. I cannot watch two different television channels at the same time with this tv.

Had a TV a few years back that had it and Halo's right, I never used it. The X409, listed as 408 on Amazon but you get a 409...does not have PIP.

This TV does not; Samsung makes another TV with the same image quality but with added features such as PIP and a CableCard slot, designated the HL-S5688W as opposed to this HL-S5687W.

I thought it did, since it has more settings than any TV I've ever had, but glad to know it does. I too have never used it. It's a great TV and very attractive as well.

It displays all the ACTIVE inputs on screen so that you can choose and switch to the desired input based upon what is displaying in the PIP windows on screen rather than memorizing the number of that input or using the graphic labels. The PIP's are pretty small in size because it was never designed for viewers to watch and enjoy like traditional PIP features. This feature works on ANY TV because the DVDO is generating the PIP's and requires nothing from the TV. The PIP was strictly designed for switching to a desired input using the images in the PIP's to make the decision. You can leave all the PIP's on screen, but it would be a pain to watch and use for anything OTHER than choosing and input.

it has PIP and POP. it displays HDMI in one input and any input that is not HDMI in the other. I must say that the POP feature falls short of what could have been possible with this TV. Although the screen would be quite capable of displaying two 4:3 windows side by side, they did not utilize this capability. The screen in POP mode displays two letterboxed 16:9 windows side by side stretching anything broadcast in 4:3 ratio.
