Synchronizing playback between clients

Exelion · 2009-08-30, 04:55 AM

I was wondering if there is a plugin where you can synchronize playback of video between clients. The situation I am trying to handle is my wife is watching tv in the living room and I am watching tv in another room. I want to watch what she is watching. We used to accomplish this with a Slingbox but now we want the picture in HD.

I looked at the events and it seems like most of the events to determine what a client if playing. Does anyone know if this is possible in the API?

Ok, so I won't get events such as video start, pause, play and stop or even keypress events?
