摘要： The present application relates to a computer implemented method for media content playback synchronization in a plurality of client display devices (2.1, 2.2, 2.3). Such method, therefore provides that playback of content streamed from a network server (1.1) is automatically synchronized for users at different client display devices (2.1, 2.2, 2.3). Synchronization is achieved using a synchronization scheme implement solely between client display devices (2.1, 2.2, 2.3), which is performed during content playback in a dedicated virtual playback room (1.2). Each slave-device (2.2, 2.3) submits playback status to a master-device (2.1) while the master-device (2.1) generates and sends synchronization instructions for each slave-device (2.2, 2.3). The synchronization instructions are based on the difference in playback position between the client devices (2.1, 2.2, 2.3).
