PurE2 supports Picture-in-Picture (PiP), letting you watch two channels at the same time. Here is how to enable and use it on Zgemma H7 and H9 receivers.
Enabling PiP on the H7
On the H7, press MENU → STANDBY/RESTART → MULTIBOOT, then use the ▲ or ▼ (up/down) buttons around OK to choose an image variant that has PiP enabled. The H7 actually carries eight images rather than four — four main images, each with a matching PiP version. Select the PiP variant and let the box restart.
Using PiP on the H7 and H9 / H9.2.X Series
- Choose a channel, press the blue button, then activate PiP.
- Press blue → green to set up the PiP window the way you want it to appear. Read the on-screen messages and keep pressing 0 until you are happy, then press OK.
- Press blue → red to change which window you can zap in. Use the ▼ or ▲ buttons to bring up the channel list, press green, choose a bouquet (for example Terrestrial), pick a channel and press OK.
- Press blue → yellow to swap the windows — that is, which window is active and which audio you are listening to — then press OK.
Have a play with it; you can't break anything.
To exit PiP, press blue → blue.
Enjoy!

What is the path to the blue button to activate PiP? I hotkey that button for my Catchup plugin so would like to make the PiP path a long press.

H7 and H9/H9.2.X series: choose a channel > blue button > blue button = activate PiP.
If you want more, go to System > Keyboard/RC > Extra Button Setup > press a button to assign a function to > InfoBar > Show PiP or whatever you want, from the offering in the list of options...
