mwgbell,
I don't believe that the video is being mixed at the laptop then send out from there in the above posts (someone correct if I am wrong). I have worked with Luis Puster before as well. He mentioned that if you have a video input device for your LT/PC you can send a feed to the LT/PC so you can see the video on the LT/PC and it makes controlling it easier because you can look right at the screen and control the camera.
There is a titling feature on the D70/D80s that is made easy with a feature of the CWShop software by Luis Puster. Great software BTW! This just uses the built in titling of the D70/D80 cameras. For more formal/"pretty" titles you will need a video mixer with Chroma key or Luminescence key to overlay video input from a LT/PC onto the incoming video then send the post mixed signal to the Teredek/webcaster/house system.
I haven't done it any other way. There may be a way to do what you are thinking. We (our stake) have used Roland VR-3, VR-3ex, and VR-50HD mixers before. All of these have a "PC/RGB" (or HDMI) input from a PC then this is mixed into the incoming camera shots as needed. The titles are simply a .PPT presentation with the proper Chroma key as the main background and the titles at the bottom of the slide show.
Hope this helps.
