Social TV allows people to meet the demand of social experience while watching videos. Existing solutions cannot balance interest among group and provide good viewing quality for all members with different network bandwidth and devices. Realizing that people in group will be more tolerant, trusting and willing to help each other, we developed a cloud based social TV for online group video service. We emphasize group behavior in our application and introduce the concept of tolerance and trust between users to balance their interest. Group Recommendation results we show in our system can obtain overall high satisfaction while provides diverse content. We also design a collaborative video distribution technology to optimize network resource utility for fluency and high quality viewing experience. The entire operation of the system emphasizes on simplicity, collaboration and smooth, providing excellent social TV experience.
