@ajmcgr Metastream allows users to synchronize media streams on the internet. An example could be a video on YouTube, a livestream on Twitch, or even music on SoundCloud.
It does this by sending playback information to everyone in a session. What it doesn't do is stream any audio or video data between users.
I'm still looking for ways to clear up this confusion so I'm open to any feedback in that regard. 😅
@typicalmitul Oof, there are some networking issues I'm still trying to resolve. The primary way of connecting—sharing friend codes—depends on P2P which can be flaky on some networks.
I have a guide up on how to troubleshoot this issue: https://github.com/samuelmaddock...
One of the features of Metastream is the ability to host your own session and have friends join by connecting to your IP directly. This means you can use Metastream even if any backend services go down! If you're comfortable forwarding a port in your router, the guide linked above includes the port.
