Split screen allows you to watch 2+ different video sources simultaneously, such as different live streams or recorded videos in a top and bottom format. For example:
- The host is shown in the top half of the screen, and the guest is shown in the bottom half.
- A recording is shown in the top half and the host is shown in the bottom half.
