note: I looked on the other Stack sites and didn't see one where this question would be more appropriate -- please, no snipes

I'm looking for software that frames a TV feed (via coax cable) with still images, tickers, etc. Below is an example of a potential layout I'm interested in (care of Bloomberg).

This could be implemented very easy in processing

here is an example programm that integrates a live videostream, an infographic and some text

import processing.video.*;

Capture video;
PImage cat;

void setup() {
  size(400,400);
  video = new Capture(this, 160, 120);
  textFont( createFont("helvetica", 15 ));
  cat = loadImage( "Buttered_cat.png");
}

void draw() {   
    if (video.available()) {
      background(0);
      video.read();
      text( "live videofeed", 20, 10 );
      image( video, 20, 20 );
      text( "Infographics", 270, 10 ); 
      image( cat, 270, 20 );
      text("long text with serious informations ...", 10, 200);
    }
}

to generate an window that looks similar to this one alt text

Well, here's an interesting application for you to build and you can apparently be first-to-market. I'm looking for someone I met who wanted to wrap his TV feed in his barber shop.
