That's wonderful. It will take me a while to digest all this but this is a great tutorial for overlaying one video to the side of another. BTW, I don't have a preference for the right or the left, so if it's easier to do it one way versus the other, please let me know now!. THANK YOU!

Just for clarification, both videos should be the same size for best results. If you want to overlay the left half of a rightmost video: pip = DirectShowSource(vid2, audio=false).ConvertToYUY2() or, to resize before overlaying: pip = DirectShowSource(vid2, audio=false).LanczosResize(new_width, new_height).ConvertToYUY2() If you want to overlay the right half of a rightmost video: pip = DirectShowSource(vid2, audio=false), followed by: pip = pip.LanczosResize(pip.width,pip.height,Int(pip.width/2),0,pip.width,pip.height).ConvertToYUY2() or, to resize before overlaying: pip = pip.LanczosResize(new_width,new_height,Int(pip.width/2),0,pip.width,pip.height).ConvertToYUY2() The code to use will depend on which half of the screen your character is placed. There really is no more work involved one way or the other. BTW, I suggest you preview your avs file with VirtualDub before importing it into your DVD authoring tool.
