Yes, you can have multiple instances of the decoder. You can call

int ret = xvid_decore(NULL, XVID_DEC_CREATE, &xvidDecoderCreate, NULL);

You should already call this somewhere in your code. Then 
"xvidDecoderCreate.handle" is what you need to remember for each instance 
of the decoder you need.

I don't know. If you use TCP/IP, it should take care of retransmitting 
packages automatically, if that's what you mean. If you don't use that 
protocol, you just need to implement retransmitting yourself. I have no 
idea what your specific situation and network design, and I don't have 
experience in this field, so I can't be a great help, sorry.
