Question / Help Get video being played in video playback application without window capture

I am going to be doing a stream where I have 4 videos playing in VLC and want them to show up as sources in OBS. I know I could do a window capture, but then I would need to have the VLC application full size which would either take up multiple monitors, or I could not see them.

Is there a solution where I could grab the video from a media player (does not have to be VLC) and send it to an input source? In this way, I could tile the media players as small sized applications to save monitor space but still have HD video. The reason I can not just play the videos a media sources is that I need to be able to move forward and back in them as they are playing.
