I have a few consoles setup on my desk and I think it would be neat to be able forgo switching inputs on my monitor.

It could be useful for setting up a picture-in-picture system and using the inputs in EmuVR to play non-Retroarch consoles like my Xbox 360 and original Xbox.

Is this feasible? I would be fine playing at lower resolutions. I have attempted it with a cheap Ali Express HDMI to USB device but the latency through a wrench into that idea. I am wondering if a more capable capture device could be the answer.

Also would my graphics card play a big factor? I have 1070ti so I feel like it should be fine.

    Consumer monitors with PIP definitely exist and would be cheaper.

    They seem pretty hard to come by from what I’ve seen during sporadic searching

      Not really… just a slightly higher end of gear, most of dells professional series will do it from memory, the gigabyte on my desk does it.
