I can confirm VLC only works when the interface language is set to english. I just fixed it, thanks for mentioning that.
... for the explorer at heart!

I cant figure anything out...Lol I can follow instructions but have no clue how to get MPC-HC to work. Can someone helpdiglet wrote: Thu Feb 08, 2024 5:47 pm
- Improved device configuration screen, configurable safety limits.
- Media sync and Funscript support builtin. Supports MPC-HC, VLC and HereSphere. For VLC you need to follow the video instructions here. The others are easy enough to figure out on your own.
- Ability to create audio files (mp3) from the UI.

I was having trouble with MPC-HC as well. Then I clicked this and it magically started working.samsonjude1776 wrote: Sun Feb 11, 2024 12:06 am

That worked. Thanks!digitalparkinglot wrote: Sun Feb 11, 2024 1:14 amI was having trouble with MPC-HC as well. Then I clicked this and it magically started working.samsonjude1776 wrote: Sun Feb 11, 2024 12:06 am

@diglet and @Kelvinator: I have tried most of your suggestions. I discovered that I had a faulty adapter on one of my cables that was going in and out. I thought that was the problem, but after I replaced it, I still have the same issue with sensation. I tried out Kelvinator's single channel test files, and they performed as expected. But for some reason, I can't get Restim configured properly.Kelvinator wrote: Tue Feb 06, 2024 3:58 am For Lorada, Here are some suggestions:
1. Check your DIY stim box signals in a non-Restim mode using these 30 second test files: 30 Sec Stereo Ch 1 Only Track.mp3, 30 Sec Stereo Ch 2 Only Track.mp3, and 30 Sec Stereo Track.mp3 found in:
https://mega.nz/folder/5KdCCD7K#1U1ByzDV1cOTrYufR5GCuw
You should hear / feel signals on channel 1 only, channel 2 only, and on both channels respectively. FYI - Puste's CHPlayerV3 is great for playing cock hero videos and stim files:
viewtopic.php?p=291045#p291045
2. If your DIY stim box is outputting signals on both channels and you can hear / feel them comfortably, then:
3. Open Restim and use Tools > Funscript Conversion (1D > 2D) to create alpha and beta funscript files.
4. Here are some Restim settings that work on my DIY TroniC MidiStim box:
a. Tools > Device Selection > StereoStim, Three phase
b. Tools > Preferences > Threephase (make sure L0 and L1 limits are -1.0 to 1.0, and that the Remote Control boxes are checked.
c. Three Phase Tab> Calibration > Neutral Power, try -8 setting. Get your electrodes hooked up, Set the Pattern Generator to Mouse or Circle and Start Audio. Note: I have to increase the sound card volume on the computer to 50% or higher in order to feel the signal. Adjust the volume on your stim box so that you feel the stim signals at a comfortable level.
d. Adjust the Neutral, Right, and Center Power levels until you get the signal strengths you want / enjoy.
I hope this helps you troubleshoot, identify any problems, and tune your system to your individual Restim setups and preferences. Any advice or tips from other users would be appreciated. Good Luck! K
Actually I have one more idea. Can you open your box and check if the left and the right channel are connected in the same way? You might get this behavior if only one of the channels has the + and - reversed.
Hey :) I'm quite new to all of this, but I'm making my way trough (a lot of reading and trial and error...). Maybe someone can comment on this ability to create audio files from the UI (Bake Audio). I think I read somewhere (maybe on eroscript?) that this feature is basically the same as funstim (on a technical/coding level). Because I'm still trying to get used to restim (wiki), it might render results more quickly if I start using funstim first (generate mp3 and synch video/audio manually) before diving deeper :D Thanksdiglet wrote: Thu Feb 08, 2024 5:47 pm New release: V1.13
https://github.com/diglet48/restim/releases
- Improved device configuration screen, configurable safety limits.
- Media sync and Funscript support builtin. Supports MPC-HC, VLC and HereSphere. For VLC you need to follow the video instructions here. The others are easy enough to figure out on your own.
- Ability to create audio files (mp3) from the UI.
- Fix carrier frequency adjustments over T-code not working for pulse-based generator.
- Fix syncing issue with HereSphere.
If you have a media player connected, stim audio will play only when the video is playing, not paused.
Remaining issues: there is no way to offset the funscripts to compensate for latency. The patterns don't work when a funscript is loaded. Wiki needs updates.
The bake audio feature is for those that can't use Restim to generate audio in real-time, for example those using a tablet to play, or those creating audio files for other releases.Ella_94 wrote: Thu Feb 15, 2024 12:26 amHey :) I'm quite new to all of this, but I'm making my way trough (a lot of reading and trial and error...).

Thanks for the feedback. I've never noticed the glitchyness with high pattern speeds, but I'm glad it's fixed.icehash23 wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 9:31 am Tried out the new version tonight! It seems you've fixed the weird glitchiness that would happen with an internal pattern speed greater than 6. But maybe that was only happening on my machine? Something to do with PC hardware? I think it was skipping samples or something - resulted in random spikes.
Gave pulsed mode a shot and was quite delighted to find it enjoyable now! Granted, last time I tried it was toward the tail end of a session (probably already desensitized), and I didn't really experiment much with trode placement or calibration. At that point it felt too sharp, like only the peaks of the signal were getting through.
Some small bits of feedback:I think there were some other things, but I'm kinda out of it at this point and just glad I was able to post this at all
- It would be nice if, when seeking around in a video, the movements of signals were a bit more buffered. I know MultiFunPlayer does this by default, and I've always preferred that behavior to, say, ScriptPlayer + MPC-HC. When you seek and land on a radically different point in the circle, it'll gradually ramp over there, rather than jump all at once.
- Similar to above, when hitting "mirror" in the Adjust Limits section, maybe the dot could reverse direction from its current point rather than jumping across the circle.
- MPV support would be great, I really love the A-B loop feature you get there.
