I tried the above with 2 MediaSinks (2 seperate MPEG1or2VideoRTPSources).  I am 
finding that the MediaSink object who's startPlaying() is last called is the 
only one that gets processed by the event loop.  More accurately, its the only 
one who's MediaSink::continuePlaying gets called from within EventLoop 
processing.  Does anybody have any suggestions?

Also, concerning calling startPlaying() on each MediaSink object, does live 
support adding MediaSink objects (through startPlaying()) after the 
"doEventLoop()" has been started?

Thanks,
