* Port VLCPlayer from asyncore/asynchat to Twisted Rationale: asyncore/asynchat are deprecated since Python 3.6 and are going to be removed from the standard library from Python 3.10. It is unclear if these libraries will be picked up by maintainers and independently published on PyPI. At the moment, we are working on replacing them, in this commit with Twisted LineReceiver. Known issues: does not work with GUI. There is a conflict with qt5reactor -> "QSocketNotifier: Can only be used with threads started with QThread". * Fix QSocketNotifier issue with qt5reactor Sending the call to transport.write wrapped in a self.reactor.callFromThread instead of directly does the trick. Include also fixes to allow correct quit of VLC and Syncplay when either one is closed. Known issues: there is a noticeable lag (~ 1 second) between the start of Syncplay MainWindow and the start of VLC. * Re-add try/except to VLC * Bring back missing try Co-authored-by: Alberto Sottile <alby128@gmail.com> |

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.
