PiP (Picture in Picture) (1 Viewer)

Hi,

Are any developers working on PiP (Picture in Picture) in MediaPortal at the moment?

I have played around creating a home application for watching videos that also supports PiP (in my case video in video...). Its just a small sample applocation that I got the idéa from these pages;

http://www.codeproject.com/cs/media...sp?df=100&forumid=222258&exp=0&select=1285247

If PiP is implemented in the future in MP how would you like it to work?
* only in TV (tv in tv)
* being able to zoom PiP (one button press shows PiP, second press zooms, third press on button hides PiP)
* Features on the PiP window: Channel change Up/Down, Swap what show is main, change location of PiP window (move)

Suggestions, comments?

I'd rather the devs work on making the program stable and speedy. PiP always seemed like a good demo gimmick for the tv sales floor but is not used as much as you would think by the average tv viewer.

would be nice but i think this should come after they get a good stable program or get to version 1

Still missing this feature a lot and hope it will be implemented soon. At least in MP2 I hope!

Won't happen in MPI (not possible) but should be available in MPII
