Full motion live video can be provided in tactical and other environments utilizing various apparatuses and methods. An apparatus can include live source video inputs configured to receive live source video streams, video outputs configured to provide live output video streams configured according to a channel template design; and a processor configured to control multiplexing of the live source video streams to provide master control of the live source video inputs and video outputs. Another apparatus can include an input configured to receive video streams from the prior apparatus, a processor configured to fuse the video streams, and a user interface configured to present the video streams to the user in multiple independent frames, wherein the multiple independent frames include a relatively larger live video of interest and relatively smaller live thumbnail videos.
