It’s a finding. Not a statement. It’s an observation of the data. Opinions are not valid. If you feel that “of course that is obvious duuuhh” well you can’t actually make that claim unless you have data and the data reflects this. That’s how science works.
This is what we do. We have tried using a shared player with limited success because we all have different setups (PC connected to TV, Plex Streaming, Apple TV Stream, etc). But I am always looking for a more elegant answer. Hopefully someone here might have some new tech.
We have tried this before and usually the video and audio quality go to shit. Source is 1080p streamed video looks like 144p. Tried Zoom, Jitsi, Teams, Telegram, FaceTime. All with very similar results. So far the best solution has been sharing a copy of the file and playing on the count of three.
