The described examples provide for output of first content from a first source of a set top box output terminal for presentation in the full display area of display device. In response to receiving a wait request from a user input device, the outputting of the first content is switching to outputting second content from a second set top box source. While outputting the second content for presentation on the display device, the first content currently being provided by the first source is periodically output for a predetermined duration in a display device portion inset within the full display area that is presenting the second source content. In response to a return input from the user input device, the set top box switches from outputting the second content source to outputting first content currently obtained from the first source.
