Video inside video

Hi, and sorry if this has been answered before.

I need to "integrate" two different videos, one at full res and the other one at smaller res in one of the corners. Is there any easy way to achieve this using avisynth? Thanks in advance.

Look up the overlay command in the manual...

Many thanks :)

One devious trick I picked up for doing PiP is to blend the window in at about 75%. This leaves about 25% of the Main image visible through the window. The effect is somewhat subliminal, probably related to the eyes ability to see a full image through a picket fence, but motion in the main image that is moving under the window is clearly discernable. The 75%/25% blend is arbitary, with high contrast source material an 85%/15% blend maybe better, with low contrast source material try 70%/30% or even higher. Try it.

That's really a good idea! - Indeed i remember cases where it have looked very hard without any transparency.


By the way, i have asked once a similar question. (But you should better ignore my initial trys):

stickboy has posted an overlay()-example and Wilbert a mask to soften the borders if the PiP. :)
