Hey guys!!
Some good news!
After quite some time i have finally the update ready for some great improvements!
I have tested the updated version thoroughly the past view weeks. But Despite my efforts, it is possible that due to the increased complexity of the program, there are still some (hidden) problems.
If you encounter a problem or malfunction, please leave a message and i will try to fix it a.s.a.p.
So for the update there are some big improvements for some functions and some new functions are added.
The interface looks still a bit basic, but i will work on that if everything runs smooth.
An overview of the new/improved functions:
- Spoiler: show
-
- Dynamic keyblock time, the duration of the keyblock will depend on the length of your video.
- Automatically closing, the program will close it self after the video has ended
- Customizable category names
- Customizable category pictures
- No fixed resource folder, you can select your own resource folder
- Optional to hide the anti cheat options, so if you are not a fan of the anti cheat options or don't want to use them you can hide them.
- Remember your selected categories (Optional)
- Exclude previously seen videos (optional), filter out the videos you previous have seen
- Adjustable volume, you can adjust the volume of your pc by using the arrow keys (also when using anti cheat options)
- Disable Sound muting (Optional), an option to block sound muting during a video
- Restricted Use (Optional), this gives you the option to "lock" the program for a certain amount of time after you watched a video
- Emergency exit, An emergency key combination to shutdown the keyblock (see the readme file for more info)
The program now has a dynamic keyblock time, this means that the key lock automatically will be lifted and the program be closed after the video ended.
To make sure the program won't be shut down to early and you miss the end of your video, there is a 1 minute safety margin. So after your video has ended it takes up to 1 minute before the block is lifted and the program closed.
If you want to use customized category pictures, it is recommendable to use a size of 170x200 pix. The program can't resize them automatically (I'm looking for a solution to make this an automated process).
If you want to know more about the functions you can find some more info in the enclosed ReadMe file, or leave a message!
Installation and using the updated JOI-Player
If you want to use the update, you can use the download link below.
Due to previous problems with downloading via mega, you can also download the update via dropbox.
To instal the update just replace the "system files" folder and "JOI Player.exe" with the updated one.
First use:
When you first launch the JOI-Player (Update 2.0) all categories will be blank. In order to use the default setup click on the "settings" button, a new window will open.
Click on the "Edit" button the right field under "lay-out", the ten rows above become editable and a "set to default" button will appear. Click on the "set to default" button in order to get the correct file paths for proper function of the program.
And click "Save Changes", you will see the default category pictures and names appear on the main window. If you like you can now go to settings and customize the category to your preferences.
Please make sure that your selected resource folders have at least one video file. If you use or select an empty resource folder, there is a chance that the program will freeze when it wants to retrieve a video file from that empty folder. ( I hope to have this fixed at the next update).
This version of the JOI-Player doesn't come with the resource folders because of the function that you can select your own resource folders, ofcourse you can still use the default folders from the previous version.
If you have any questions, ideas or encountered a problem please leave a message!
Enjoy!
