[PD] gem based multi headed "media player"

[Tim Boykett]

hi,

has anyone had any experience using (multiple) gem(s)
to output several videos simultaneously on a multiheaded
(linux) box?

the questions that arise as we ponder this is how much CPU gets
used to decode the video, how much to render, how much the
graphics cards can take away effort from the CPU, what sort of
idea of harddisks can make the data transfer more efficent, etc.

any experiences? any suggestions?

cheers,

tim
