Join a watch party

A friend’s screening, from a linked Usherr or shared in Discord: say I’m in, then join at showtime.

In Broadcast: Movie night, From linked Usherrs; the lobby is a full screen of its own.
In Classic or Neu: Showtime, From linked Usherrs.

  1. If it applies From a linked Usherr

    On Movie night (Showtime in Classic or Neu), screenings you’re invited to are under From linked Usherrs, with who hosts, the start time and the pre-show length. Answer I’m in, Can’t make it or Maybe. Once someone here says I’m in, it’s booked in your own Showtime, so the Marquee counts down to it.

  2. If it applies Don’t have the film?

    Get it before showtime asks for it. If your copy runs more than two minutes longer or shorter than the host’s, you’re told it may be a different cut, which may not stay in step.

  3. If it applies Join the screening

    From a little before the pre-show, press Join the screening and leave the page open on the TV. Your player follows the host’s play, pause and skips; joining late starts where everyone has got to.

  4. If it applies From Discord: copy the showtime code

    On the watch party’s card in Discord, press I’m in: the answer only you see has the code, three groups of letters and numbers like HXK4-7QPM-2RD9C. It’s on the card too, under Showtime code. Copy it.

  5. If it applies Paste it and press Join

    On the Showtime page, choose where the film plays, then press Join. The same film is booked for the same moment, with a pre-show of the same length made of your own clips and trailers. You need the film in your library or Streams, or Usherr streams it for the night.

  6. You’re in
