Media Playback Synchronization Across Multiple Clients

摘要

Systems and methods are disclosed for putting a plurality of endpoints in communication with a media host server and a real time communications session manager, wherein a client application running on an endpoint recognizes commands sent to a media host server by a media player running on the endpoint, compares those commands to a pre-programmed set of commands, and sends an indication of the commands to the communications session manager.
