VIDEO PLAYER
A video player can be used on all filter screens. This allows you to play videos and show slides and images on filter screens.
The program folder contains a number of videos and images that can be used as an example of work or to create colorful installations.
One of the features of DINRAY 3D is the complete absence of restrictions on the number of videos of any length and images added by the user.

Three favorites folders
Video files can be selected from any folder on the user's computer. For ease of grouping, the settings of three folders for Favorites are automatically saved.
The contents of these folders can be managed from Windows Explorer, or the user can select the folders from which the desired media content is placed in the installation.
Selecting a video player
To select a filter video player, you need to select the filter itself. The video selection panel will show the videos that are queued for playback of the current video player.
The main screen video player is always present on the stage.
Attention! Playing the sound of the videos is possible only together with the videos on the main screen, if the videos of the main screen video player contain a sound track.
Adding files to the launcher
To create a video sequence, you need to move the desired videos from folders to the right panel.
You can select individual videos or the entire contents of a folder at once. It is necessary to take into account that processing the contents of the video player may take a certain amount of time, which depends on the speed of file processing by the server.
VIDEO TIMER
When the looped video playback mode is enabled, additional options for managing the player's video files appear.
Limit the duration of each video separately, or set the same settings for all videos in the video sequence, which can be useful for rhythmic changes in scene images or for limiting the duration of videos whose size exceeds the desired duration limits.
And for a smooth change of videos, you can use the customizable mode for the duration of the screen's appearance and fading.
Default video settings panel
Sets the parameters of the video duration, screen opacity and timer for all video, image and photo clips located in the Windows folder selection panel.
In this case, those video clips with pictures and photos that will be added to the video player's video sequence will have the basic transparency and timer settings specified by this setting.
This is necessary for the convenience of filling out the installation, and the settings of each video can always be changed later.
The settings panel for the selected video
Sets the duration, screen opacity and timer parameters for the selected video.
Setting the duration of the video with the picture
Sets a duration limit for all video clips with photos and pictures located in the Windows folder selection panel.
In this case, those video clips with pictures and photos that will be added to the video player's video sequence will have the duration previously specified by this setting.
This is necessary for the convenience of filling out the installation, and the duration can always be changed later.
Setting the duration of a video clip

Maximum screen opacity
Setting the maximum opacity. This allows you to combine images from several filters located in different layers of the scene.
Opacity can be set for all videos in the video player at once, or for any of them separately.
The speed at which the screen transparency changes at the beginning of the video
The speed of screen development from transparent level to the maximum allowed value.
There are two possible settings:
  • Fixed - the rate of change of transparency will occur at the same rate.
  • Random - all videos in the video player will be displayed in a random range of seconds from the minimum to the maximum value.
The speed at which the transparency changes at the end of the video
Screen fade speed from maximum to minimum allowed value.
There are two possible settings:
  • Fixed - the rate of change of transparency will occur at the same rate.

POSSIBLE PLAYBACK PROBLEMS
Format check
Make sure the video file format is supported by the program
Available file formats
File compression
In some cases, there may be problems with playing video files that are compressed with errors or using encoders of other operating systems.
In this case, it is recommended to re-convert the video file using video editors. For example, Movavi or Action .
If you need a custom version, please contact us. We can add more options, change the built-in logo and much more to please you and your viewers.
