Not to muddy the discussion, but what the hell... In general, it'd be great to be able to combine or select from among multiple inputs in some way more interesting than picture-in-picture. For example, the way I watch baseball is generally to turn on the TV, mute it, and then put on the radio broadcast, since the radio announcers are typically much better than the TV announcers. Unfortunately, this doesn't work out so well when one wants to synchronize the sources, as the TV will always be 3-4 seconds behind the radio broadcast. I can do something like this if I use MLB's Gameday Audio to listen, because I can insert almost any delay I want into that; but it's kinda ugly to have to do this when I could accomplish much the same thing with input selection and a radio tuner module. Anyway, I digress. Being able to grab the crawl (or, really, any fixed block) out of one recording and superimpose it over another recording would be neat, but I don't know how many people would care.
