[mythtv-users] Microsoft patents chatting while watching TV.

[Dean Collins]

I haven't bothered to check into the filing date for Microsoft yet but
do a google search on CableCard3 

It's a document I published involving the overlay of text (including
chat) over video streams from independent servers.

Microsoft - I await your licensing call :)
