This week-end I was watching a tennis match on the TV and wanted to listen music in the same time all on te MP.

It is not possible, but do you think it will could be an option ?

Thanks
Meloman

While this sounds a bit odd at first, I can actually think of several times when this option would have been nice.

Maybe it could be tackled with a plugin that would allow you to choose which video and audio sources you want as your outputs.

If Picture-in-Picture is written in, this might be useful then too, as it would allow selecting the two video streams to display.

interesting feature

after all an HTPC should be able to do MORE than an ordinary media box

It would also be nice to be able to watch the TV feed and listen to the commentary from a radio feed.

During the World Cup and some football matches the BBC has it on both TV and Radio. The TV commentary can get a bit tedious but the radio commentary is ususally a lot better. It would be great if both could be configured and controlled.

well that could only be done with two tuners

it is different than just not using the audio side of the graph and attach some music file playing there

Not necessarily the audio side could come from an internet radio feed.

ah, indeed

(couldn't think of that since in my country very few stations use this)
