Can I insert a PIP along with other images so that the PIP plays simultaneously?

Hi, SteveO65,


PiPs can only be inserted sequentially, so they play one after the other as the playhead moves down the timeline. You cannot stack them so that they play simultaneously. However, you can create a second project for the purpose and insert the first PiP, and then share it out as a movie file. Then import the movie file into your first project and add your second PiP to the imported movie that contains the first PiP. That way you can make them appear simultaneously. You can repeat this process to add several PiPs.
