Dual-Picture Streaming Features

Sling TV Released a New Picture-in-Picture Feature for All Users

— March 21, 2023 — Pop Culture
Sling TV has added a Picture-In-Picture (P.I.P) feature to its service. The new feature allows users to watch live content in a small screen overlay on top of whatever it is they are doing. To activate the feature, users simply select any live show, tap the touch surface on their remote and choose “Start PiP.” Now, the live video will be in P.I.P. Mode. You can tap the “TV” button for options to move it around or go back to full screen. The feature is available on Apple TV and desktop browsers.

Sling TV is a live TV streaming service that’s operated by Dish Network, but it is an entirely separate entity. Sling TV is appealing to many customers, as it does not require a satellite TV subscription or a satellite dish. The service is available on a number of different platforms, including iOS, Android, Apple TV and Roku.

Trend Themes
1. Picture-in-picture Streaming - The rise of Picture-in-Picture (PiP) streaming features has opened opportunities for app developers and streaming services to enable multitasking without interrupting the viewing experience.
2. Interactive Remote Control Features - With the implementation of interactive remote control features, such as tap and touch, there is an opportunity for companies to improve user experience and increase viewer engagement on their streaming platforms.
3. Desktop Streaming - As more streaming services become available on desktop browsers, there is a growing trend in the convenience of watching live TV and other content on a computer, offering potential innovation opportunities for both streaming providers and online retailers and advertisers.
Industry Implications
1. Streaming Services - Streaming services such as Sling TV, Netflix, and Hulu have the potential to offer disruptive innovations to differentiate themselves from competitors and to attract and retain customers with new and unique interactive or multitasking capabilities.
2. Remote Control Manufacturing - As streaming devices and services improve and introduce more interactive remote control capabilities, there is an opportunity for remote control manufacturers to produce innovative designs and features to enhance user experience and control of multiple devices.
3. Computer Hardware and Accessories - As desktop streaming becomes more popular, there is an opportunity for manufacturers of computer hardware and accessories to cater to consumers looking for better viewing experiences, such as larger monitors, better sound systems, and more ergonomic keyboards or mice.
