* Package name : syncplay Version : 1.6.7 Upstream Author : Syncplay team <d...@syncplay.pl> * URL : https://syncplay.pl/ * License : Apache-2.0, ISC, MIT, BSD-3-clause Programming Lang: Python Description : Synchronize playback of various video players via internet Allows you to watch movies with friends or family at different places synchronized via the internet. . When a viewer pauses/unpauses 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. . Technically, it synchronises 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. . It is interoperable and available on the upstream web page for other operating systems, too. I stumbled across this tool and consider it useful, especially during the pandemic situation, to support social distancing while friends and family can still have movie nights via internet. I've only done a rudimentary test, i.e., more testing and feedback can't hurt. Feedback on python packaging mistakes is highly appreciated! At the moment I've packaged it here https://salsa.debian.org/fuddl/syncplay and consider to collaboratively maintain it in the Debian Multimedia Maintainers team. Cheers, Bruno
