Can I play two SceneGraph Video noes at once?
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.
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:

Any ideas if this is possible or any other way to get a picture in picture?
