This feature would allow users of a plex server to sync playback of a show or movie together.
Pausing, unpausing and seeking are synchronized over plex, giving everyone playing the same file in the same virtual room a shared viewing experience.
No more - "Play on 3 ---- 3…2…1… Play! …No wait, pause! …No wait, argh!”
For a 3rd party app that does this see https://synclounge.tv/
Native support for this functionality within plex would be amazing for any users that have distance between them to play media together.
