[gentoo-user] Help playing simultaneously splitted videos (sort of)

[Javier Krausbeck]

Hi there,

I've been asked something strange. I have to take a video input and split it 
in three parts, sending it to three outputs simultaneously.

The first thing I thought of was creating a pipe, sending there the video and 
trying to read from there. I did my firsts tests with mplayer, but as soon as 
I launched the second instance of the video output, the mplayer which was 
feeding the pipe exited.

Does any of you have any good idea to accomplish this in a simple and elegant 
way?

Probably I should be focusing more on the capturing more than doing this 
rubbish tests, nonetheless, since I still don't have any hardware to do 
anything proper, any feedback will be wellcome ;)
