Feature Request - Picture in Picture
Just wondering if this is something Sage are considering? I'm a sports watcher - it would be great to be able to have two games on at a time.
My vision of this would be: * If playing a video and you ask to play another, you get a menu asking you whether you want to stop the current one, have the current one as the main and the second one as the sub picture, or have the second one as the main and the current one as the sub picture. * Whilst playing, all play/pause/skip controls control the main picture. * There is a toggle button that toggles between picture A only, picture A with subpicture B, picture B with subpicture A and picture B only. This can be used at any time, because Sage remembers the last thing you were playing and will use it as the subpicture if you are just playing one thing. |

Picture in Picture would be great.
I have a 4:3 tube TV, so it would definitely need to be Picture IN Picture, but for those with widescreen TV's, would Picture next topicture be useful? I mean, if you have two tuners, have it show two video windows next to each other. Would this be doable?

I would also love PIP.
PIP should provide for true picture-in-picture with size and position options, as well as picture-by-picture, allowing two SD images side by side on a single 16x9 display. Please !!! Sage 6 is a great step forward, but I am waiting for PIP !!! |

I have been waiting for PIP for over 2 years. I know MythTV has it, but Sage's other qualities and features make Myth a no go for me. I will just keep waiting.
