A method of synchronizing streaming media between a plurality of UEs connected to a communications network, wherein the UEs are involved in a SIP-enabled voice session over said communications network. A timestamp is provided to each of the UEs. Each of the UEs then sends a request for streamed media to an IPTV service, receives streamed media from the IPTV service, and commences playout of the streamed media in dependence upon the timestamp.
