Abstract
A computing device may include a memory and a processor configured to cooperate with the memory to determine, based upon at least one multimedia filter running at a first client computing device, a uniform resource locator (URL) associated with a media cloud source of a video being streamed to the first client computing device using a source filter, and playback control data associated with the video being streamed to the first client computing device. The processor may also cause a second client computing device to independently stream the video from the media cloud source based upon the determined URL, and play the video at the second client computing device synchronously with playback of the video at the first client computing device based upon the playback control data, with the first client computing device being the controller for playback of the video at the second client computing device.
