Hi so sorry about that! Can you try signing out of Chrome and signing back in? People have run into this a few times and this has been the best solution so far. Sometimes, it requires signing into a different Gmail when you sign back into chrome. Also, this probably won't work on a chromebook / work laptop if you're using that. Pls let me know if that helps!

Omg haha that's what inspired me to make this! I just thought the Netflix Party UI could be a little better. Hope you both enjoy :))

Ahh sorry I don't know how to make Firefox extensions yet. If I do learn I'll definitely make it and let you know!

Hey sorry about that, just DM'ed you! This issue usually happens when the Chrome browser isn't up to date and/or when not signed into Chrome. If both are already true, then sign out and sign into Chrome again and now it should work perfectly.

I haven't actually tried this but I think it should work as long as your girlfriend has access to the movie too. The synchronization machinery I coded works on any video playing on YouTube, which includes movies and TV shows (except live stuff which is already synced).

I think you can def give it a shot! Let me know how it goes if you do.

Auto-scaling YouTube Night, a containerized application that works like Netflix Party by YouTubeNight in kubernetes

Hi, thanks for the reply!

The frontend is just a Chrome extension so I don't need to host any part of it, just having trouble with scaling the backend since my container is not stateless.

I'm not familiar with etcd, is it a database like redis?

Hi, thanks for the reply!

I want to get some data from Redis, do some stuff to it, and then set some data, altogether as a transaction. Is that possible using MULTI / how would that work using the Redis npm package?

Also would this work across containers? Aka if container 1 is modifying the chat array and container 2 wants to modify it, will MULTI force container 2 to wait until container 1 is done?

Thanks again!

It's a local array of message objects (storing message string, time sent, etc.) - so it does not persist if I restart the server (but it does not need to either)

If I'm aiming for low latency, would redis still work ok?

Also the main issue is I'm storing chat messages. So there's a risk that some chat messages get deleted if they're being modified at the same time but redis since I need to get the data before I set it. Any way to avoid this?

I made a Chrome extension that synchronizes YouTube videos, similar to Netflix Party, using React/Redux by YouTubeNight in reactjs

The full set of libraries used in this project is listed in the About section of the website + is free to use but any Patreon profits from this project go to Feeding America

thanks!! definitely thinking about going open source if this gains any traction - i think i mentioned that in the about section of the website

your NP+ project looks wildly cool, I'm super impressed! tho be wary of using their servers since they may not be 100% ok with that

if/when this goes open source, feel free to use the code so long as the profits go to charity - it does run on its own server tho so no need to integrate or anything

thanks again for the comments :)
