Show HN: Video conference and synchronized YouTube video to do fitness in groups

It would be nice to be able to do the same thing with a shared Plex server, but not sure if that would be as easy.

With workout videos usually 120-140 BPM, sub second, let's say 1 second for ease on 120 BPM would be 2 beats per second and so a sync of 2 beat offset would be spot on. Now a 140 BPM would be 3 beats, but you get the idea. By syncing the beats with an offset to cater for the latency and the BPM, you can give the illusion of perfect video sync. More so when doing repetitive motion to that beat, just seems like it would work really well. Certainly makes management of latency a much more easier task and allow for buffering as well depending upon how many beats you want to offset, so could handle latency spikes and brief drops. Which again, makes the things easier when you can control and fix latency , though as you can't do that, planning it out of the equation is always a treat. Food for thought perhaps.

But it is your baby, you pick the formula you want to feed it. But hope you do well whatever direction as certainly has potential in many avenues. Remote rave anybody :).

Just because a company offers a product that does something new and different does not equate to where the industry is truly going (as much as founders/CEOs may wish otherwise).

It's more about where the customer/consumers are going...yes you can lead them to an extent, but on that note are products like Tonal actually selling and if so, what clip and density?

I would ask for evidence of adoption of something (beyond just the mere fact it exists) to support the "where the market is going" type of thinking...

Keystoning not a problem. I knew I didn't need 4k. I just needed something that could go BIG and fill up the whole wall floor to ceiling to get the effect I was going for.

We tested video calls in a group of 8, it was working well. I heard that having around 35 people in one room can make it unstable.
