wireless sync of multiple Roku TVs and devices

Why is this not a feature? Before in my basement office and my dart area in the basement I used an HDMI splitter to run a Roku ultra to two tv's. Now that I moved my office to the main floor I would like to stream in my office and living room, the splitter is not an option.

So other then say, using the HBO app and starting a stream of the same show on both tv's and manually syncing by getting a bit ahead the pausing and unpausing until they match, but if you are watching a series you have to do it on each episode. That sucks, there should be a setting to do this within the device. I think there are a lot of us that would really like this feature. It's been a few years since this thread was started, why no answer from Roku? Maybe we just need to find something that works this way and switch to that?

    looking for a wireless solution and willing to purchase 3rd party hardware to make it happen.

    Same issue, can Roku suggest other hardware either from Roku or different vendor to sync 3 of their TVs.  I have 4 Roku Tvs and a couple of just devices.

    I did get an HDMI splitter (1 in -4 out) then used a Roku stick to sync but I really need a wireless solution.

    Now with NFL Ticket on YouTubeTV they really need to provide a solution. Roku be the first to fix this sync issue. When I used DirecTV for NFL Ticket I didn't have this issue. Does anyone know if another streaming device has a solved for this problem (Chromecast, AppleTV, Etc...) ? Solution: Make one device the primary device, and have the other Roku devices link to it, one TV pauses they all pause.

    This would be a great feature!!!!!
