my horrible idea for syncing a program across multiple computers:
create a lib that you install on each computer to relay keystrokes/mouse
it could be done (without an installed lib) over rdp/vnc/ssh if done
properly. one client controls multiple servers at the same time.

then just type mplayer blah
space for pause
left right for seek

its so stupid it might actually work.
