Abstract

A group of "servant" devices (104, 108) each downloads (306) a media presentation and renders (308) the presentation to a local user (102, 106). However, a "master" device (104, 108, 110) directs (404) the servants (104, 108) as to which chunks to download and when to render (408) the presentation. In this way, the master (104, 108, 110) keeps the presentations on the separate servants (104, 108) in synchrony. The master (104, 108, 110) uses status information (406) from the servants (104, 108) to coordinate the downloads. If, for example, one servant (104, 108) is having a difficult time keeping up with the presentation, then the master (104, 108, 110) may choose to direct that servant (104, 108) to download a reduced-resolution version of the presentation (which requires less bandwidth to download). If the user (102, 106) of one of the servant devices (104, 108) enters a playback command, then that command is not executed locally but is instead sent (310) to the master device (104, 108, 110) which in turn sends (412) the command to all of the servants (104, 108) so that they may execute (308) the playback command in synchrony.
