NAME

       syncplay - synchronize playback of various video players via internet

SYNOPSIS

       syncplay [options] [file] [playeroptions]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the syncplay command.

       syncplay  is a program that allows you to watch movies with friends or family at different
       places synchronized via the internet.

       When a viewer pauses/continues playback or seeks within their media player  this  will  be
       replicated  across  all  media  players  connected  to the same server in the same viewing
       session. A chat function is included so viewers can discuss the movie while  watching  it.
       To  improve  the  communication  experience  for viewers, the Syncplay developers and this
       package suggest to use additional VoIP (package mumble)  or  video  phone  (package  jami)
       software.

       Technically, it synchronizes the position and play states of multiple mpv, VLC, MPC-HC and
       MPC-BEmedia player instances so viewers' players present the same movie at the same time.

       There are known synchronization issues with VLC. If you experience such problems  use  MPV
       instead.
