HI, all -
I have no clue what to call this, so I went ahead and did the best I
could in the subject. Hopefully I'll be able to explain a better idea
of what I'm trying to do here.
I was asked to figure out a pretty unique problem, in the sense that
we're trying to go for a setup that will take one traditional input -
RCA, Coax, what have you - and display that on the top ~80% of the final
processed output, whilst playing some other content on the bottom 20% of
the output. The idea is, display the normal content on top, but have
some other content on the bottom, such as the stock ticker often seen on
CNN. I don't know exactly what content that will be, but I'm thinking
and hoping just an infinitely looping video of some sort.
I know this is pretty far-fetched, but I was hoping that MythTV had a
mechanism to allow this behavior so I could investigate it further.
I've seen MythTV do some pretty amazing things, and I'm hoping this is
just another one of those things.
Thanks!
