    I have an animated band playing music that is triggered with the Timeline, it's multiplayer. How can I get the music synced when someone joins, the music is the same for everyone. Using Photon 2. Any help is appreciated.

    Right now the second player joins and can hear the music playing but it's not synced with the other multiplayer.

    You can set a Custom Room Property with the server timestamp when the music started. This should be enough to play the same music at about the same time.

    This is not entirely perfectly synced, so expect to hear the gap when running multiple clients locally. It should be good enough for players in different places.
