6.1 Picture-In-Picture Function
The HS-2850 Picture in Picture function allows you to place one or two smaller PIP images
over a chosen full size background image. The smaller PIP images can be set to pre-defined
sizes and positioned almost anywhere within the Preview/Program screen area. These PIP
windows can also have a coloured border applied, and can be brought into the production
with a default PIP dissolve transition.
