Update for Beta Branch 5/9/2023

HereSphere VR Video Player

HereSphere is a cutting edge VR video player that enhances immersion. Features include an autofocus depth algorithm, software IPD adjustment, head-tracking, spatial audio, lens distortion and alignment corrections, online video streaming, and video tagging with advanced search features.

HereSphere update v0.9.4 for PC is now available on the Steam beta branch. [b]Event Server:[/b] [list] [*] The synchronized peripherals time offset is now applied to the playback event server, so the time reported to the event server is now offset by that value. The minimum reported playback time is 0, so if the time offset is negative and the video opens at time 0, you'll need to toggle play/pause or seek after the video starts for the time offset to properly be applied. [*] When using the Handy with the playback event server (where scripts are controlled by a third party instead of HereSphere), the synchronized peripherals play/pause toggle and range settings will still work. Manual oscillation or manual pattern mode will also work. When disabling those manual modes, a video open message will be sent to the event server to force it to load the script again. It may take several seconds for the script to resume (toggle pause/play if the script doesn't resume after several seconds). [/list] [b]Quality of life improvements:[/b] [list] [*] The first and second tag tracks are now shown above the seekbar if there are multiple tags in that track or if the tag doesn't start at time 0. As a reminder, you can scroll each track horizontally by using the scroll keybindings (default is thumbstick up/down). [*] Added a "Use File Modification Date" toggle to the user settings. When this toggle is enabled, the file explorer will use the file modification time instead of the file creation time as the date. This can be useful if you want to sort files by when they were modified instead of created (like when you copy/paste a file, the creation time changes but the modification time remains the same). [*] For local files, the video's release date is now set to the file modification time instead of the date the video was added to the media library. To update the dates of videos that have already been added to the media library, you will need to remove the video from the media library and then open the video again. [/list]
