A method, apparatus and system for synchronizing the video output of personal video recorders (14-1, 14-2) in two or more locations. A broadcast program is received and recorded on a personal video recorder (14-1) on a first personal video recorder (14-1). Thus, at least one program will be stored in memory in the first personal video recorder. A second personal video recorder (14-2)having a common program residing in its memory is selected. A signal is then transmitted to or from the first personal video recorder (14-1) to simultaneously initiate a start sequence in each of the first and second personal video recorders (14-1, 14-2). The start signal may be transmitted over the Internet (18) or by other communication means such as telephone lines (20).
