A television pix-in-pix system includes a pixel memory for storing one field of pixel intensity values of a television signal. A 1-bit overlay indication signal representative of pixel address locations defining a desired indicia on the TV screen is stored in an associated bit map memory. A digital multiplexor having input terminals coupled for respectively receiving the pixel intensity values and suitable overlay display values, and responsive to the overlay indication signal, provides the overlay display values when the overlay indication signal is a logical one, and provides the pixel intensity values otherwise, thereby generating the desired indicia as a part of the inset image on the TV screen.
