My friends and I are trying to watch a video that we all have on our machines, and would love to all have it timed together without the hassle of manually doing it. Is there a VLC plugin or tool that times it all together so that VLC plays the local file in sync with the other computers?

We are all apart from each other on different networks.– hamoodcooperCommented Apr 27, 2020 at 19:19

Set up the audio conference. Have everyone start the video file and hit pause when it starts to fade up from black, or at the studio logo. When everyone's ready "...3...2...1..PLAY"– K7AAYCommented Apr 27, 2020 at 20:06

yes if the other computer it is not in your local network surely you need to port-forward to do the trick but you will be limited by the speed of the connection but now anything up to 5 m/s its good to stream good look ;)– denn0nCommented Apr 27, 2020 at 22:06
