Has anyone thought about VDR supporting PiP (picture-in-picture)? It would be quite useful, but perhaps not enough to justify the work. Supporting all outputs, FF cards in particular, would require a lot of processing power to decode two streams then encode the superimposed version back to MPEG 2. Having the feature in Xine would be a lor more practical, but of course then Xine would need work done to support it. But I think it would be trivial for it to superimpose two decoded pictures compared to recoding the MPEG.
