Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for synchronizing the simultaneous presentation of multimedia content across multiple devices. An example embodiment operates by generating a multimedia content synchronization request configured to instruct a second media device to synchronize a presentation of multimedia content on the second media device with a first media device. The multimedia content synchronization request can include, for example, a deep link indicative of a channel of the multimedia content, a position of the multimedia content, and a state of the multimedia content to start the presentation of the multimedia content. Subsequently, the example embodiment operates by transmitting the multimedia content synchronization request to the second media device.
