Virtual Cinema

What is this ?

This app allows you to watch movies/series/cartoon/animes/random videos with your friends. It also works with audio and images.
The videos/sounds/images have to be stored on a Google Drive Folder. This folder needs to be "shared with anyone with the link". By using the Id of the folder in the app, the files will be downloaded and played inside the application.

There are slates and a drawing board to draw or write (useful for the blindtest for example). Note: you can erase what you draw by selecting the white color, the width or the pen will automatically increase to allow you to erase what was drawn easily.

There is a karaoke mode where you can select karaokes that are taken from this base:  https://kara.moe/ (awesome base, their work is truly amazing, they also have an dedicated app for local karaoke nights !)

For the multiplayer to work, you'll need a host who has one of their port forwarded.

Ideas of things to do with this application:

-Movie nights with your remote friends

-Blind-tests

-Karaoke (although there is going to be latency between players so singing together is inevitably going to be difficult/impossible)

-Anything for which you'd need to be able to draw and see some videos / image / listen to sound files

How to use ?

If you're the host, you need to forward a port and then people will be able to join your party by typing a code.

If you're the one handling the files (videos/images/sounds): you need to make a folder on google drive and share it with "anyone with the link" and by entering the id in the app, every user will download and see the videos / images / hear the sounds in the app.

Example of some drive folders:

One to watch some videos: Video folder

One for a blind-test: Blind-test folder

You can press Escape in the app to see the controls.
