Join or leave a Watch Party

Avant de vous joindre

A Watch Party invitation connects you to a shared movie or episode session. It does not provide the media. You need an eligible connected Odyssey profile and your own authorised source for the intended title.

Confirm the film edition or the exact season and episode with the host. A different cut can have a different runtime, so identical timestamps may not represent the same scene. Choose the profile whose history and restrictions you intend to use before accepting.

Use invitations from people you recognise. The link can carry session access, so avoid posting it publicly or including it in a support screenshot.

Pendant la fête

L’hôte décide si les clients peuvent Jouer et se reposer et Revenir et chercher. If a control is unavailable, ask the host to inspect Guest Controls and save the intended permission. Do not repeatedly restart playback to try to acquire host control.

Keep the same participating profile active while joining. Odyssey checks profile and account access throughout the action. Switching profiles or reconnecting a different account can invalidate the invitation’s current context.

Exemple de travail

Jordan receives a friend invitation for season two, episode four. Before accepting, Jordan checks that the active profile has that episode from an authorised source. Jordan reads the sender and expiry, accepts and follows the joining flow.

Jordan can pause but cannot seek because the host enabled only Play and Pause. When Jordan needs to leave, they open the shared-viewing settings and choose Leave Watch Party. They have left that session without deleting the friendship or the series from their library.

Retour et départ

Ouvrir Settings → SharePlay & Watch Party et utilisation Leave Watch Party for the active guest session. The host’s equivalent session-ending control is Arrêter la fête.

La section de résumé peut offrir Resume Watch Party when an eligible unexpired session is available. Otherwise, use a current invitation from the host. An entry under Recent records a previous party; it does not prove that its link is still usable.
