  • Time tags / Solo button

This is a great idea! This would improve the viewing experience dramatically as it essentially allows automatic skipping towards our favourite parts.

Question - Could you make it so it filters for multiple time tags?
E.g. Allow users to select the time tags to filter for in the settings (e.g. Cowgirl OR Missionary). Then when the button is enabled, the video automatically skips to the first segment matching either "cowgirl" or "missionary". And upon pressing a user defined hotkey (e.g. "A") , this will skip the video to the next "cowgirl" or "missionary" segment.

If you do it this way, this would allow users a seamless way to skip to all their favourite positions with the touch of a button.

    dango789 Hey, that would be quite a challenge to setup and have it easy to understand for users, what I would suggest is to do it with Clips when we release them, you will be able to cut videos into smaller chunks (also by segments) and put them in a playlist that would play as you describe.

      Sandi_SLR I don't know, you're the one making it. But playlist still requires you to put in every scene yourself first. As I understand, the system described would be randomized, no?

        blaze466 Now there are all of these other ideas being discussed

        They are also worked on by different people, and we have to coordinate with the DeoVR devs. The shuffle feature is still in the works. - Sometimes, not in this case, we even have to coordinate and wait for the Meta devs to update their firmware. ie extended passthrough API. Or previously Spatial Audio.

        blaze466 Hey, looks like it is going to internal test phase next week, if everything checks out, it shouldn't be too long, apologies for the wait.

        Rakly3 the system will follow any playlist you selected also suggested. So if you enable shuffle, then its random.
        I was aiming more at public playlist, afaik there are collections of script only ones.

        Sandi_SLR no worries. In that case, your original suggestion with the solo button would work better. That wouldn’t require users to do their own cutting and trimming which would be very time consuming.

        Also, Blaze brings up a great point about playlist shuffling and glad to hesr it’s coming soon. In addition to shuffling through playlists, can you also enable shuffling for our favourites list and also for videos with interactive scripts?

          Great ! Thank you...

          AND : still waiting for a button "random" in the playlists :-)

          dango789 Hey, as long it's a playlist, shuffling will work. Favourites is one, also if you have a playlist of interactive videos, it will shuffle it.
          There are also changes coming to how suggested list works, it will respect what you searched for in Hub, so if you searched for scripts, the suggested should contain such videos + shuffle mode and you are good to go.

            Ah bon ? Really ? When I click the button "next video", I get the next video, not a random video in the playlist.

            But I'll try again... thank you.

              TataYoyo Hey, I was replying for scenario after shuffle will be released. It is not yet implemented.

                Sandi_SLR Ah ok... I hope it will be implemented once. Would be VERY useful.

                Thank you so much for your job and your fantastic site. SLR is GREAT !!!

                dango789 Hello, this is just a search filter, but new suggested will act like a playlist and show only videos with scripts 😉

                  Sandi_SLR Great! So we’ll be able to shuffle through all interactive videos without manually creating our own playlist then?

                    10 months later

                    I am really happy to announce this feature is now live in 13.12 RC version, coming to everyone in about a week.

                    In the bottom left corner you will find the Solo button simply marked with "S".
                    When you click it - you enable Solo mode with the current time tag the video is playing. This means only same time tags will play - enabling it on "Cowgirl" will only play cowgirl time tags.
                    This is also true when going to next video! So you can treat it as dynamic compilations.

                    But this is not all, when Solo is ON, you can add more time tags by simply toggling them ON. You can have as many as you want, as example you can toggle "Blowjob", "Cowgirl" and "Cumshot" and player will stick to only this tags when going Next.

                    Additionally Solo mode turns ON automatically if you use "Play from tag" button on a thumbnail in HUB when searching for a tag.

                    This is only first iteration of this feature, feedback is most welcome!

                      Sandi_SLR Not directly related to this topic, but as it seems there will be more buttons coming, would it be possible to add a function to make the control bar (semi-)transparent instead of black? I find it quite big already now and sometimes can hardly see what's happening behind it.
