Watch Party: synced movie nights with live chat and replays [Paid] 2.0.3

[SenseiXS]

How haven't i found this earlier. This is so awesome and the potential it has... There are games and apps that include such watch parties and they are so fun. To include it in forums makes it very awesome. I need to set a reminder from when I'm back from holidays to buy multiple of your add-ons. Many thanks <3

Thank you, I’m so happy to read your comment!

Very interesting addon, ngl.

I also have a suggestion. The chat messages being synchronized with posts in a topic. The same feature Siropu's Chat addon has, where you create a chat room and can set an specific thread's id so that the room messages are copied/posted in that thread and also viceversa: thread posts --> chat messages.

My use case is that the chat messages work as an archive in a thread for further discussion after the event ended.

Again, very interesting addon and yes, rightly pointed to increase community engagement. Looking for it in the near future ;-)

1.3.0 — Live reactions, native theming & a full front-end refresh

1.3.0 — Live reactions, native theming & a full front-end refresh​

This is the biggest update Watch Party has had. The entire front end was rebuilt to feel like a real live-streaming room, it now blends into your forum's style on its own, and viewers can finally react to what's playing as it happens.

It adapts to your theme now​

Watch Party used to force its own dark look onto every board. That's gone. Backgrounds, text, borders and the accent colour...

SenseiXS updated [XenSupport] Watch Party with a new update entry:

1.4.0

A rebuilt Admin CP and calendar reminders for scheduled watch parties.

• Added An Insights page in the Admin CP: rooms and viewers over time, which categories actually get used, the split between YouTube, Twitch and VK, your busiest rooms, your most active hosts and how members are rating what they watch.
• Added A Realtime page that shows whether Pusher is configured and lets you test the connection from the Admin CP, instead of finding out it was wrong when a watch party goes...

SenseiXS updated [XenSupport] Watch Party with a new update entry:

2.0.1: replays with their chat, moments, live polls, crews and a queue

This update brings Watch Party from 1.4.0 to 2.0.1. What each release added:

2.0.1. A home page that features the next party when nothing is live, replays that never open on an empty chat, and a round of wording and layout fixes.

2.0.0. Replays with their chat, moments, live polls, crews, private parties, a queue and a complete chat: the biggest update since the first version.

1.4.1. A wording fix: ten Admin CP lines showed a placeholder where a plural belonged.

2.0.3: reliable live streams, and no more credit in your footer

No more credit in your footer
This update removes the "XenForo add-ons by ©XenSupport" line that Watch Party added to your forum footer, separator included. Nothing to configure: install the archive over the previous version from Admin CP > Add-ons and the line is gone once the upgrade has run.

The resource page now says so too: Visible branding: No.

Also in this update (2.0.2)

• Live HLS streams play reliably in Chrome and Edge. Streams from...
