Showing a captured video in multiple windows

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi,

I'm trying to use a camera to capture video in real time and show it in
more than one window.
All posts that I read about it recommended to use "Infinite Tee" but no
examples.

This code below is all that I got. Just the original video is displayed
in his own window. I want to show one more window with the same video
in real time.

I think that I'm not connecting the pins correctly.

Can anyone help me with it?
If someone has some source code (any language) as example, I will be
very grateful.

Thanks a lot!
