Abstract

Techniques for dynamically providing a picture-in-picture display incorporating live video content from a first network device, and pre-recorded content from a second network device, in a single stream. In an example scenario, a host or presenter may record a live video of himself or herself answering questions for an online audience. Before or during recording of the live video content, an audience member may record a video of himself asking a question directed to the host. A server may receive both the live video content and the pre-recorded video content, and may format or repackage the two sources of content for simultaneous viewing by the audience in real- or near real-time. To present this Q&A dynamic, some implementations may provide a picture-in-picture effect, wherein the display of a first content (e.g., the live video content) may be temporarily reduced to accommodate display of second content (e.g., the pre-recorded video content).
