I have an open source project in mind, but I was looking for some input on how to get started and go about this, or if anybody knows if something like this exists.<p>What is the idea?<p>In the future I can definitely see media outlets transforming, but what I&#x27;ve been interested in is an intermediate step in that evolution. What I had in mind was a video play that can play 2 videos simultaneously and give the user the ability to switch back and forth.<p>Why would someone want this?<p>This would open up the possibilities for media creation. For instance, one could make videos where the watcher can switch between a first person view and third person view, or switch between first person forward view and first person rear view, or switch between multiple perspectives.<p>Questions...<p>Does something like this exist?
Do you have any input to develop on the idea?
Is this a stupid idea&#x2F;waste of time?
Where&#x27;s a good place to start with this?
What language&#x2F;framework do you see as a good fit for this?
Is there anybody that would be interested in contributing to this project?
