Android video sync across multiple devices

I need to play 6 different videos on 6 different android devices and have the videos stay in synch once started.

Can anybody point me in the right direction to a possible solution, some sample code, even a keyword would be useful since "video sync" tends to just bring up syncing personal videos between device and computer.

Thanks in advance.

Seems to do the job, and then some. Haven't tried it though. They have a google code page somewhere too.

I have a similar need that I've been thinking about how to do it. You'll need some server side code. This is what I'm considering right now:

Have a service on the server that takes in a time stamp from the device and returns an adjusted start time back to the device, based off the delta between the device time and the server time. In other words, the absolute start time would come from the server.

I haven't tried this yet, but I think it might work.
