UPDATED FOR CEF-BASED VIEWERS
This TV's primary feature is the ability to keep videos synced between different viewers. The way that webpage media on a prim works on SL means that every person watching the video has their own instance of the website running in a browser on the prim. What one person sees won't always match what someone else sees, especially if someone comes and starts watching partway through!
MD Sync TV solves this problem, and adds in some extra, useful features, such as a graphical, editable playlist, automatic advance to the next video in the playlist, resolution settings and a scrubber bar to seek to specific points in the video. It does all of this without using an external web service. It's completely contained in the scripts in the TV itself, meaning your purchase isn't tied to a server that could go down if I ended up broke.
It's a powerful system, but one without the bloat commonly seen in high-priced SL televisions. This TV was made to do one thing well, and do it more smoothly than anyone else.
Supported websites are: Youtube, Twitch.tv (saved videos, streams, and clips), Dailymotion, Picarto.tv and Livestream. More may be added in the future, but not all websites can be set up to work on this TV, due to limitations with their respective APIs.
This TV requires Shared Media, (Sometimes called prim media or media on a prim.) Ensure that your viewer and settings support it!

very good
i dont understand some negative comments here, tv is well working, the sync button is a great resource for have fun with friends. some options can be added, as hide the playlist area when in play, or the reset button that reset also the skin size :), but great work
Doesn't work
youtube videos state video can not play, live stream states not supported. I read the last review and thought it must be a working tv to live stream and watch videos. Do not buy this product!! It is just like all the rest of the nonworking TVs in SL.
Ignore the 1 star review... it does work
This TV DOES work as advertised for Youtube. That's what I bought it for and it works fine. My only gripe is that I can't full screen it and get rid of the sidebar. Other than that, it works great. :)
No longer working - Bought one for a club to just play some Music Videos and NO GO!
Wrote the author and have not gotten a reply. Does not work at all. Errors, dead screen, Bought one for a club to just play some Music Videos in sync and NO GO! and NO REPLY! - If it changes I update! But as of today 09/27/18 its just a another dead prim!
Amazing TV with sync but
one thing I dont like about it is: my friends are not able to add songs to the playlist.
Which is bad!
Awesome tool for watching in sync
Was having trouble attempting to load Twitch videos so I messaged the creator and he responded after a day so its nice to know that an item like this is still being updated. He fixed the issue quickly and I now have a powerful streaming tool for Twitch :)
