Abstract: In some aspects, the techniques described herein relate to a method including: receiving a request from a client device to join a room, the room associate with a plurality of other client devices streaming multimedia content; adding the client device to the room in response to the request; computing a synchronization time for the client based on time values associated with the client device and the other client devices; and transmitting the synchronization time to the client device, causing the client device to adjust playback of the multimedia content based on the synchronization time.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for suppressing audio leakage in watch-together sessions. In an embodiment, a device is provided comprising a speaker, a microphone, a media player configured to provide a first media content audio, and a peer to peer (“P2P”) communications engine including a local loopback module and a conferencing module. The local loopback module configured to receive the first media content audio, provide a second media content audio, and amplify, using the speaker, the second media content audio, and the conferencing module configured to capture, using the microphone, captured conference audio, the captured conference audio including the second media content audio, and transmit to a modified captured conference audio; wherein the P2P communications engine is configured to generate the modified captured conference audio by suppressing the second content audio from the captured conference audio.
