Picture in picture was in the 90's for some reason it never took off. Had a tv with it loved it during the FB and BB season.

It was a sad day when ESPN3 got rid of the quad-box option.

I have two monitors set up. My wife will put me down if I watch 8 games at once.

So does that use multiple streams or is that still 1 TV? And more importantly, how much will they charge for this feature?

My guess is 1 TV and no charge.

Credit to you people who can do this. I've tried multiple TV setups and I can't stand trying to focus on multiple things at the same time.

Can't you do that now thru the app?

 

[BigJCy]

Sweet. Hopefully it will be available here soon for Football season.

Perfect when just casually watching games and want to see the a bunch at the same time. Also nice if you have some parlays going to keep tabs on the games.

NCAA tournament is where this will be great. Football has enough commercials that I feel I can flip around and keep up.

Only 1 game goes on the TV when ISU is playing. Outside of that, I would LOVE this as an option for casual viewing

I remember having a few TVs with the feature, but also recall it not being terribly user friendly. Seemed like you had to leverage the tuner in the VCR to get a second channel going and it just seemed to be a bit finicky. A good idea that was a little ahead of the hardware, glad to see it coming back.

My main tv is only 55" and I probably won't use it there but I have a projector with 120" screen, that should work well for football.

FuboTV has this already. Also ESPN app allows for it as well. Works relatively well. Typically you can do a PIP, 2, 3 and 4 up.

Just realized it was AppleTV only. Didn't know that before now.

I have had YouTube TV for a year plus now.......seems like a superior service and this just might be another example of this.
