Syphon Virtual Screen is a tool that allows the sharing of video output from applications that can go full-screen but are not yet Syphon-enabled. The framebuffer is stored in the computer's CPU memory, so it may not be the best option for applications that require heavy video processing as each frame must be uploaded to the GPU RAM in order to be published on a Syphon server. The best option would be to have native Syphon support in the application, but if that is not an option, then this tool may be helpful.

The framebuffer resides in CPU memory, so maybe it could not be the best solution for heavy video processing: every frame has to be uploaded to the GPU RAM to be published on a syphon server, and this is a (relatively) slow operation. The best would be having native Syphon support in the application you target of course, but if you're here it means you can go that way.
