I'd like to review individual clips from the file explorer, but I can't figure out how to do that. Whenever I try to open an individual *.vghd or *.demo file windows wants me to look in the store for an appropriate program.

I don't think that is possible. However, you can make a playlist with just the clips you want to see.

Yes it is possible using one of the member made add-ons. I use Wyldanimal's early version. Starryk and Gatonegro also made players that should do the same thing.

These are NOT standalone players. iStripper must be running. You can select any clip, including the transition 'it' clips.
As long as WA's VG_Playlist_Server is activated and running, along with iStripper, you can play any clip on your computer 😜

Thanks, much appreciated!

Hombre, how do I find the add-ons you mentioned?

http://www.deskbabes.net/files/VG-Clips-Player.zip

extract it to your User Profile in the AppsData Local folder..

there is a PDF file, and while it was written for a much Older OS..

the File Association, is still relevant.

You don't run the clip player, b but instead..
You Browse to the Models folder.
right click on a .vghd file type, and select open With.
Then you select more options, and Browse to where you unzipped the clip player.
Make sure Always Use this app is checked.

Now, the clip player is associated to all of the .vghd file types.
So any time you Double click on a .vghd file, it opens my clip player app, which then Notifies iStripper to play that clip.

1) Download ZIP file
2) Extract it to your User\AppData\Local folders
3) Browse to a Models folder
4) Right click on a .vghd file
5) Open With
6) Always Use this app
7) Select the Clip Player in the AppData folder you extracted it too.

That's it...
Find a clip in the Models folder, Double click on it to play it...

PS: iStripper must be running. for the clip to play..
my software is NOT a Video Player.

Thanks Wyld, I was just searching for your early version but could only find your 2nd version which, of course no longer works. Or have you worked on it yet? No worries. Version 1 does the trick :) Thanks for that😎

Edit: I was thinking about my time as a QA tester and had to open all of your software with the timer and everything. But of course you know your software better than anyone and I just associated the files with it and of course works like a dream ;)

@Family man: For gatonegro's player, you need to PM him for the install files. (I think?). Just search his name, in the main forum box and then ask him nicely 😇

Probably best to do the same for @Starryk unless these guys want to update their info here???

All have revised their software and it's not easy to find the latest versions.

Or you could just try searching their names with, 'Add-ons' in the search box.

Anyways, Wyld's clip player works for me and does what I need it to do. The others may be more advanced. Your choice 😊

For any of you advanced Computer Heads....
If you want to Write your Own, Double Click to Play a Clip
Using only Windows 10 built in Features...
Here is a PDF file that gives you all the Code you Need...
( 1 Page ) Just 10 lines of code... That's all it takes....
2 Lines of Code in a Batch file
8 lines of Code ( could be reduced to much less ) in a PowerShell Script
just Copy and Paste directly from the PDF file...

Fully Tested on Windows 10


Edit:
iStripper must be running.....
Yes, It is Normal to see the Black Window popup and close.
that is the Script running...

you Double click on a Clip in a models folder.
it causes the Script to run and notifies iStripper to play that clip. ( the Black Window opens and closes )
and then iStripper plays that clip.

Thanks Wyld,

The Timer and the Clip Buffer Server, and the Full PLayer were QA tools I wrote..

They are not Needed for a simple
Double Click to play a Clip...

Do you have a similar functioning script for OSX?

Do you have a similar functioning script for OSX?

Sorry, as I am not part of the TEAM, I only have access to the Windows OS.
There might be another OSX user who can expand on the Windows based solution to provide similar Function for OSX.

Many Members are using Excel, Access or other Data management software to Organize and Query their Collection.
Having a simple, Push the Clip name to the Registry tool
Expands that capability to now let them Query and Play clips.


To take it to the next level, a functional Play list player.
you need to add a Method to Poll the registry to see if a clip is currently playing.
If the Poll results are Positive ( Yes a Clip is Playing ) then your App waits / loops.
If the Poll results are Negative ( No a clip is Not Playing ) then your App Notifies iStripper to play the Next clip.


Logic of a simple Playlist Player.

1) Get the Next Clip from the List.

Loop
2) Poll iStripper Registry
3) Yes or No? -> loop
4) Notify iStripper via Registry to play next Clip

5) Repeat step 1

@TokyoGorePolice

When iStripper came out the ability to push a clip ID into the Totem preference file was broken and Totem has not yet fixed it.

Here is the AppleScript code that worked with VG, but no longer works with iStripper. It's hard coded for a specific clip.

tell application "System Events" to tell contents of property list file ((((path to home folder) as string) & "Library:Preferences:") & "com.totem.Vghd.plist")
set value of property list item "parameters.ForceAnim" to "e0401/e0401_6148101.vghd"
end tell


Here is an AppleScript that reads the same properties and reports what is being played. This demonstrates that the Mac version of iStripper simply does not pay any attention to the ForceAnim property.


tell application "System Events" to tell contents of property list file ((path of preferences folder) & "com.totem.Vghd.plist")
set current_clip to missing value
set player_clips to missing value
set force_clip to missing value
repeat
set test_clip to value of property list item "parameters.CurrentAnim"
set test_clips to value of property list item "player.currentClips"
set test_force to value of property list item "parameters.ForceAnim"
if test_clip ≠ current_clip then
beep
set current_clip to test_clip
log "current: " & current_clip
end if
if test_clips ≠ player_clips then
beep
set player_clips to test_clips
log "Clips: " & player_clips
end if
if test_force ≠ force_clip then
beep
set force_clip to test_force
log "*****: " & force_clip
end if
delay 1
end repeat
end tell


There is a workaround. Here is an AppleScript that will create a playlist of just one clip. You can then play that playlist in iStripper. It's not as simple as we'd like, but it does work. This is a simple AppleScript that will create a one-clip playlist and put it on the desktop.

set clip_name to choose file "Clip to play"
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ":"
set clip_name to text item -1 of (clip_name as string)
set file_id to open for access file (((path to desktop) as string) & clip_name & ".vpl") with write permission
set long_integer_1 to (ASCII character (0)) & (ASCII character (0)) & (ASCII character (0)) & (ASCII character (1))
write long_integer_1 to file_id starting at eof -- version number
write long_integer_1 to file_id starting at eof -- number of clips
set string_length to (ASCII character (0)) & (ASCII character (0)) & (ASCII character (0)) & (ASCII character (2 * (length of clip_name)))
write string_length to file_id starting at eof -- number of clips
repeat with character_number from 1 to length of clip_name
write (ASCII character (0)) & text character_number of clip_name to file_id starting at eof -- number of clips
end repeat
close access file_id



EDIT: Warning there are some unwanted line breaks inserted by the forum software. They should be easy to remove in the AppleScript editor.

Thanks for all the help! It's much appreciated.

Can we all agree... This is ridiculous! What a ***** in the ass this program is. It is so fundamentally wrong on so many levels. Obviously I enjoy the files or I wouldn't be here writing this.... But the Program itself is absolutely *****. To purchase something and then have no control over how and when to view it is just wrong. And the Play Lists are non working ridiculousness. How do you ever know what videos are completely contained within a "Card" So glad there is a screen capture program like OBS so I can ATTEMPT to try to capture and enjoy the content I purchased how and when "I" choose. I notice that I must record with HDR off... and then turn HDR back on for best viewing... I also enjoy these "Cards" best with a solid Black or Dark Gray background. They are seemingly more intimate and realistic to me.

How to see a cards List of Clips
go to Settings, put a check in Advance Settings
Scroll Down to the Display section
Put a Check in Display Clips List

This enables the Optional Clip List on a cards Details tab. The Icon looks like a Clip Board it's the last one on the right.

Now you can see the List of clips that a card has, and even ***** a clip to a playlist.
you can remove check marks from clips you Don't want to see played.
So you can customize a cards Playable clips.

How Playlist tabs Work
Playlist Play from Bottom of the List to top of the list.

There are two option check boxes, Random and Repeat.

Repeat cause the Last clip played to be placed Back at the top of the play list.
Random, pulls clips from the list in random order, instead of Sequential from Bottom to Top.

Actually, the Playlist feature is Quite Powerful, once you start to use it, and learn it's functions.

The Two tabs to the Right,

The Playlist Tab is the Editor, where you create the lists and edit them.
then save them to be used on the Now Playing tab.

The Now Playing Tab is the Player.
It has three Sections.
The top Section is Next, this is the Que of What will play next.
the Middle section is Now Playing
and just as it says, It's what is currently being played.
The Bottom section is the History of what has already been Played.

On the Now Playing Tab, you can Insert, a playlist that has been saved, from the Playlist Tab.

The Playlist feature you gives you Precise control over your Entire collection.

Create many short Playlists of specific cards and clips.
Then you can insert them, and combine them together on the Now Playing tab.
