You'll have to what others said, and have an external program split the stream for each player. It's too bad really, because the DVB drivers support this ability. The only problem is that when this ability is used the kernel strips the TS headers from the streams, which makes them unplayable. As a result, everything uses the dvr0 device, which only allows a single open at a time. Felix Domke sent a message to this list a day or two ago about an improvement to the dvb api that would allow this. You could have multiple copies of a player listening to the different (or the same) PIDs. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
