CyTube is a project I started in early 2013 as a hobby project to build my own
|

|
|
|
clone of synchtube.com (which shut down in March 2013).

The basic concept is that users register channels where connected viewers can
|
|
|
|
|
watch videos from different video hosts (e.g., YouTube, Twitch) and the playback
|
|
|
|
|
is synchronized for all the viewers in the channel.

|
|
Each channel has a playlist where users can queue up videos to play, as well as
|
|
|
|
|
an integrated chatroom for discussion.
