This invention discloses a system for processing multimedia content from multiple sources. The system can adjust the viewable size of a video stream as well as control how additional customized graphics and text are integrated together to produce a single multimedia output stream. The layout and content of the output is completely configurable to accommodate text (ex: notices, scrollers, tickers), images (ex: logos, advertisements, banners), audio, and streaming video (ex: movies, cable, satellite, games). Configuration tools are provided to control how the insertion content rendered. Specifically, an MS Windows application takes the user through the configuration process to setup the attributes of the stored insertion content and how it should be merged with the streaming multimedia input. Once the stored insertion content and streaming input are merged a combined output in NTSC format for viewing on a television or projection unit.
