Random Video Player v1.53 (Can sync with MFP and ScriptPlayer)

I like the idea and with a good interface, can see myself using this sporadically.
Appreciate the work!

Thanks so much! I’m happy if you enjoy it :slight_smile:

Bit demanding so feel free to say no.
Any way you could make this work with Scriptplayer (GitHub - FredTungsten/ScriptPlayer: ScriptPlayer is a video player that controls the Handy and lots of other toys in sync with videos.)?
Currently it seems very close to when using the MPCHC video player in Scriptplayer it detects RVP but unlike playing videos in MPCHC it does not load the currently playing videos funscript.

Hey, thanks for your feedback :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I will take a more detailed look later, but this should be an easy adjustment. Seems like Script Player asks for more variables than MFP which I trimmed down for efficiency.

I might push a small update around weekend.

Edit: After investigating a bit, it seems ScriptPlayer isn’t just reading more variables, but actively posting commands to MPC-HC as it’s taking control over the player.

So unfortunately I have to say, that this means I propably won’t add compatibility, unless I find another way.

I would always recommend using MFP though, it’s awesome.

How do you play multiple videos? I cant get the scripts attached to the videos

Hi,
I appreciate your input! Though, I’m not entirely sure if I understand your problem adequately, so I’ll try to explain some stuff a bit more generalized:

To actually use scripts while playing them with RVP, you need to have MultiFunPlayer running and set up correctly!

So how does it actually work, step by step:

  • Make sure, you actually have videos with associated scripts ready:

    • Video and .funscript share the same name e.g. “Video1.mp4” and “Video1.funscript”
    • All associated files have to be in the same directory next to each other
  • Download RVP and unzip it to the location of your choice

    • Run it
    • Click on the clogwheel to open the settings page
      • Activate “Timecode Server”
      • Take a moment to look at the other settings
    • Click on the folder icon and navigate to the folder that holds your videos + scripts and choose to use that folder to play from
    • RVP will now scan all files within that folder and starts playing videos at random from it
  • Setup MFP correctly:

    • Download MFP to the location of your choice and run it
    • In the top most area, click on the ‘+’ sign at the right edge of the area (Toggle media source)
    • From the list that opens, select ‘MPC-HC’ so it’s added to the area as available source
    • Either click on ‘auto-connect’ below the MPC-HC entry, so MFP will automatically connect if it finds something or simply click ‘connect’ when RVP is running already.
    • Depening on your sync toy, choose the correct connection at the bottom most area

MPC-HC should state “connected” and as soon as you play videos with a .funscript in the same directory as the video, it will automatically load those scripts and control your connected sync-toy.

Does this help clarifying? Let me know!

For the other parts of your question:

What exactly is meant with multiple videos? Note, RVP always take either a directory or a list made of entries of your choice to play from. It’s not designed to play a single file.

Anyways, have a great day! And let me know if you need to know something else :slight_smile:

Sorry to bother again, but I finally tried fully testing it. I have gotten it to sync just fine, but the strokes arent full. they are on time but only move like a cm or two

You mean the visualization? Could you provide me with a screenshot maybe? :slight_smile:

Just for clarity; RVP does not handle the scripts itself, it only tells the actual Toy-Sync software (MFP) what media it’s playing.

Idk how to send a screenshot over. Maybe I can see you mfp settings? The script will play, but instead of using the full length of the handy, itll follow the script but only use about 2-3 inches of it’s stroke length

Nah, it’s fine, since you didn’t mean the graph visualizer.

Sorry for your troubles. I suggest looking at the patch notes for MFP 1.29.0: MultiFunPlayer v1.29.3 - Multi axis funscript player - Now with SLR Interactive support - #689 by Yoooi

And try those settings for the handy. (The first paragraph)

The Handy had problems with MFP before and I don’t know if Yoooi managed to fully fix it with this setting. So I can only recommend to try that. RVP does not control the devices.

New version v1.33 released!

It’s only a small update adding some functionality requested by user:

New Feature:

  • Additional UI button to enable removing current file from active list

Other:

  • Optimized some UI tooltips to clarify it’s behavior

Shows path where files are moved to when setting is chosen:
WBcz4Fh
Explicitely state, that files are deleted:
QpA2VeL
New button to remove files from current list:
GIBBqwJ

Note:
- RVP holds a temporary list in it’s memory
- Every change will be kept there but will not be automatically saved to your local list.txt files
- To actually save the list to your .txt files, you need to manually choose to save a list

Scared off by the firewall thing before, just downloaded the new version and it wasn’t blocked by firewall by default.
Very useful tool.

Another smol update, fxing a bug reported by user @DarkkSkull

  • Image/Video filter now applies to custom lists

It didn’t previously. This only affects playback, it does not alter the list itself.

Thanks again for the feedback!

New update 1.40 released! It’s a bigger version jump since I’ve added a lot of good stuff!

Completely new settings UI that doesn’t look ass:

Settings are now categorized and more descriptions are added within the settings tab itself.

All new filter system, that let’s you choose definitve extensions instead of the simplified “image/video files” from before. You can now choose where to apply the filter.

All new Hotkey manager system. It let’s you customize most of the used hotkeys to your personal likings. It allows for most keyboard keys and combinations with the default modifiers.

Within the about page, you can now check whether a newer version of RVP is available! (No update function, RVP only checks for an update when clicking the button)

Revamped the Listbrowser a bit by adding filters below. Depending on the chosen extensions, only files that match are shown in the browser. Also only those that match are added to the custom list.

I’ve also created icons for each file type and added a corresponding function to show each file as their corresponding type. This helps with visual clarity when browsing through files. Still not 100% happy with the current layout but I’m always happy for suggestions!

Thanks a lot for all the feedback so far! More often than not, you provided helpful additions I didn’t think before and pushed me to improve on RVP. I’m always happy to hear from you, so again thanks!

As always, grab the latest version from my GitHub page: Release v1.40 - Random Video Player · Peanutccino/Random-Video-Player · GitHub

What means “Recent count number” in Remember settings?
Can u add a Folder List view too? So we could switch between Grid and List view? :pray:

In the Folderbrowser, you can set up, that it only grabs the recent X files from the chosen folder. (Which I think is cool, if you want to scrobble newer stuff).

Both the option to only use recent files and how many of the recent files are the settings you can check to remember.

Could you elaborate? Do you mean, the same visual representation in the Folderbrowser like it’s now in the Listbrowser?

Thanks for the feedback <3
