Guide: Please give us a PIP window of active playing station
« on: November 01, 2014, 04:21:54 pm »

I would love to have Theater View's top half showing the guide and bottom half split between a window of the currently playing TV station and the description of current guide position.   8)
Theater View's guide should be toggled between that view, the full guide and the playing show (hitless).

This has been requested here and there for a while.

Please ?

rudy,

I do PIP all the time.  JRiver in one window, wintv or HDHR native in the other window. works like a charm i can't imagine how JRiver would substantially improve that, without likely a lot of headaches.

What you mention works but it is not the same as PIP directly into TheaterView.
My HTPCs autologon and boot directly into TheaterView and I never touch a keyboard/mouse, I use only the remote. 
Shifting programs breaks the paradigm of a "Cable box PVR" experience.
