The freedesktop project requires that the AppStream metadata are released under a subset of licenses that does not include Apache 2.0. For this reason, we decided to change the license of the README file and release it under the MIT license (after obtaining explicit permission from all the contributors to that file). With the same goal, the script that generates the AppImage and the AppStreams metadata is also released under the MIT license. The README file now clearly states the project license and that some files are released under a different license, as declared in their header or in our third-party notices file.

What does it do
Syncplay synchronises the position and play state of multiple media players so that the viewers can watch the same thing at the same time. This means that when one person pauses/unpauses playback or seeks (jumps position) within their media player then this will be replicated across all media players connected to the same server and in the same 'room' (viewing session). When a new person joins they will also be synchronised. Syncplay also includes text-based chat so you can discuss a video as you watch it (or you could use third-party Voice over IP software to talk over a video).
What it doesn't do
Syncplay is not a file sharing service.
