Abstract :
The interest for video streaming has increased considerably over the past few years due to the sites like YouTube, Metacafe and so on. However there still hasn´t been a single site developed which will allow the users to watch the entire movie online with all his friends physically scattered but sitting virtually together like in a theatre . Further all the users should be able to watch a particular movie together at the same point of time as in a theatre though he or she is joining the others late. Also there isn´t any facility provided for the users to chat with each other while watching a particular movie and share their opinions. This paper discusses one such project which will enable the users to stream an entire movie online by renting or by purchasing and chat simultaneously with his friends. This can then be used as an application on popular sites like face book and twitter.
