Please be aware that streaming both your webcam and desktop at the same time requires quite a bit of power from your computer. Currently only members with high end laptops and computers are able to seamlessly use this feature, but we are constantly optimizing to make Picture-in-Picture accessible for devices with lower performance in the future.
Streaming Picture-in-Picture currently requires a powerful computer. Here are the specs for a minimum setup that works for the feature. Note that having a fair amount of memory and a decent graphics card always helps!
Remember also these basic guidelines for successful streaming.
