PiP
Picture in Picture
Use PiP to show video from any webcam on your screen, nicely integrated as "Picture in Picture" which makes it ideal for live presentations, screencast recordings and in the educational sector.
PiP doesn't clutter the dock with an additional icon: After launch it automatically installs itself in the menubar and the user can define a keyboard shortcut to smoothly fade in and out the video.
- Fade in/out PiP's video window by selecting this command...
- ... or pressing it's user defined keyboard shortcut.
- To change the user defined keyboard shortcut, choose this command.
- Change PiP's video device and its settings.
- If this option is selected, PiP rotates the video picture by 180°.
- By disabling PiP it will use virtually no CPU time. It's like PiP's taking a deep sleep without vanishing from the menubar.
- Quitting PiP frees all resources but also removes PiP's icon and menu from the menubar.
You can choose where the PiP window appears on your desktop: Just drag the window around while holding the mouse button down. Click & drag any corner to resize the PiP window. All changes are automatically saved.
Use the standard magnetic mount or a special flexible stand to bring your external iSight into the right position for the show.
Sure enough, you can also use any Mac-enabled USB webcam or video camcorder with PiP.
