The Picture-in-Picture inserter (PIP) is used for the simultaneous display of video and graphic sources1, and lets you display an inserted video PIP source over a graphic source2, or an inserted graphic PIP source over a video source3, compliant to Table 4. Both the Preview and Program outputs can support the PIP function.
