I recall reading FxOS could access the hardware and support Picture-in-Picture (PIP) on TV devices. The following diagram is my kind of PIP: The Holy Grail for connected TV development
<pre> ------------------------------ | | | | | | | TV | .html | | | | ------------------------------ | .html | ------------------------------ </pre> * Can I (we) code this type of "digital signage" application on the Panasonic TV sets now? * If not implemented now are the core FxOS developers working to get this type of synergy implemented? My understanding of FxOS TV broadcast streaming [1] suggests --no not now-- I (we) cannot have the holy grail --yet-- because rescaling the size of the broadcasted TV stream is already being done in legacy hardware and the manufacturers do not have an incentive to adopt a new way of doing so. Is this a correct assessment and if so when if ever will we get the holy grail which currently can be done spending ~$1k for an accessory in a box called a digital signage media player.
