Sync two playback devices via web

[dizzz (dz)]

Hi, I have a local webpage which plays a looping video and I' m able to read the played time via the "hypeDocument.getElementById('video').currentTime;" and store it to a variable
My goal is to read this variable via another webpage, accesible from a mobile device, so the other video which will play to the mobile device is in sync with the first one.

Any suggestions?
thank you in advance

May help you.

Multiple phones/units to interact with the same scene, in sync

you can use Server Sent Events or websockets or Long polling or a service like pusher: Synchronise 2 Macs with animations - #2 by MaxZieb //// a rudimentary setup for sse: sse.zip (109,0 KB)

Yup, you'll (in nearly any common case) need to have some server-side code running that can perform this sync. It is a pretty big topic, but @MarkHunte's post has a simple method to do some server-side state.
