I’m attempting a picture in picture for ending credits, similar to what Netflix does at the end of a show. I need to shrink the player, pause it, then start another stream behind it fullscreen. I never need both playing, but would like to keep the paused video viewable.
Every time I attempt this I get an error when trying to play the second stream.
STATE error position: 0 errorCode: 0 errorMsg: failed to create media player
If I stop the first video player, then the second works fine, but if I pause, or continue to run the first player, then I still get the above error.

I can’t find any documentation that states only one video node can play at once:
Of course not, that’s Apocrypha :twisted:
Search the forum, i remember it here somewhere being said There Can Be Only One
Does Netflix genuinely show 2 videos going in parallel PiP, remind me?
No, they don’t have two streams at once, just shrink the credits with some selectable posters on the bottom of the page. Kinda disappointed I cant pause or even stop (but keep the player on screen) while playing another stream.
Additionally, looks like you cannot even keep two video nodes on the screen at once. One must be fully stopped. And by stopped, its completely removed from the UI.
