then start the recieving mplayer:

#mplayer [URL] -dumpstream -dumpfile input

On another console start one playing mplayer:

#mplayer pipe.avi

On a third console start the second playing mplayer:

#mplayer pipe2.avi

As soon as all three mplayers are started, I get two video windows 
playing the stream.
