Abstract
Systems and methods are described herein for modifying playing of media content during a group watch session with a plurality of users. During the group watch session, one of the users may make a command to modify the playing of the media asset. The system may determine whether execution of the command is consistent with the preferences of the other users in the group watch session, which may include estimating a satisfaction score of each user based on user preferences. If it is determined that executing the command is consistent with the preferences of the other users participating in the group watch session, the system implements the modification to the playing of the media content, e.g., by skipping a portion of the media content, jumping to another play position of the media content, or rewinding or fast-forwarding through a portion of the media content.
