I don't know if this is an option for you, but you can load several
videos with gnome-mplayer (different windows) and then use a single
dbus command to control them all. There is the possibility that they
could get out of sync, but there are other commands that can be used
to sync up the media if needed.

Email me if you would like some examples.
