Abstract
Systems, devices and processes are provided to facilitate the streaming of video content. In general, the systems, devices and processes facilitate the synchronized streaming of video content to a plurality of video player devices. Specifically, the systems, devices and processes provide for the synchronized streaming of video content to a plurality of video player devices while also providing the ability selectively restrict timing adjustments. For example, the timing adjustments in one or more of the video player devices can be selectively prevented from occurring at certain times to comply with content-based or other such restrictions. As one example, the systems, devices and processes can be used to prevent timing adjustments from being made in one or more video player devices during the displaying of commercials and/or certain live content on the video player devices.
