How does one activate PIP in v5?

[eastavin]

Hi.  with the hockey play off season just weeks away... it would be good to find out how to activate Picture in Picture to watch more than one channel at a time.  Is this something I have to do from the config.xml for v5?  I dont see any selections for it at the top of the popup window in the client.  I tried to run multiple browser windows thinking that might be the way but did not work.  The first window stops working.

Appreciate tips. Thank you.

Sorry, there is no PIP in v5 at this stage. It wasn't commonly used in the past, so I didnt' put it very high on the priority list when implementing v5. I think you're the first person to ask about it with v5, which probably shows how often it's used

I use PIP regularly on V4. It's excellent for all sorts of things. Very useful if you want to monitor something like sports when watching news / a chat show, or switch between two live sports events, or even just keep something open while channel surfing.

I configured buttons on my remote to launch PIP and swap between the main and secondary channels. The response is amazing, nearly instantaneous.

I'd be a fan of seeing it in V5.

There is nothing that precludes it from being implemented in v5, but it's just not done yet.
