I have developed a media application that plays mp3's/mpeg files.

All the playing is done using the jmf. When a user chooses a video it's played
in a small panel on the screen and when the user touches the panel it displays the video on full screen.

My computer is also hooked up to a video card that has a s-video connection.
I essentially have another desktop area I can put something, this would be quite handy to put a another panel with the same video at say setLocation(1280,0);

This would only happen if the extra graphical device is available.

Video at the moment plays fine but I would like to have a video play in the small panel on the user graphical device then the same video play on the fullscreen graphical device.

I have managed to get the same datasource video playing with 2 different players playing using the clone example on the JMF site but surely there is a more efficient method which just shares the stream data to both panels instead of having to sperately create and realize 2 players and start them at the exact same time?
