Curious if anyone knows a way to add an additional video to a movie during the timeframe another is playing. Kinda like picture in picture (PIP). I am putting together some videos that have multiple shot angles at the same time and I would like to run the main view with another simultaneously running as an inset. I have been able to successfully do this within another video editting program. However I do not like the friendliness of that program, not hard its just different from Creator and thats what I am used to. When I stumbled across it with the alternate program I was amazed and decided that I have got to do this. If there is a way I would like to know it. Thanx!!!!

Add the video for the inset on the overlay track. Then double click on the overlaid video to open the Overlay Settings window where you can make all sort of adjustments such as size, transparency, position, motions etc. You will have to experiment until you become familiar with this powerful feature. In fact you can have more then one overlay tracks each with a different video.
