Claim 11:
12. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a session master of a computer network session, cause the session master to perform operations comprising:
determining a synchronization list including a default synchronization mechanism and a group synchronization mechanism, wherein the group synchronization mechanism has a higher precision than the default synchronization mechanism, wherein the computer network session includes the session master and a plurality of devices, the session master directing the computer network session and having a lowest common denominator synchronization mechanism among the plurality of devices, and the default synchronization mechanism is provided by the session master to all devices of the plurality of devices included in the computer network session; and
providing the default synchronization mechanism to the plurality of devices of the computer network session including a group master device and a group member device forming a device group, wherein the group master device and the group member device ignore the default synchronization mechanism provided by the session master and agree on the group synchronization for synchronizing playback of at least one of an audio content and a video content.
