Calvin Montgomery 00e9acbe4d Revert "Remove channel reference counter"
This reverts commit d678fa56d1.  The
reference counter, flawed as it is, was masking far more issues than I
realized.  It would require a more significant rearchitecture of the
code to remove it.  Probably better to keep it and try to improve it for
now.

CyTube

CyTube is a project I started in early 2013 as a hobby project to build my own clone of synchtube.com (which shut down in March 2013).

The basic concept is that users register channels where connected viewers can watch videos from different video hosts (e.g., YouTube, Twitch) and the playback is synchronized for all the viewers in the channel.

Each channel has a playlist where users can queue up videos to play, as well as an integrated chatroom for discussion.

The official server is located at https://cytu.be, but there are other public servers hosted for various communities.

Installation

The installation guide for server administrators is located on the wiki.
