So here is what I did:
- Installed xbvr. heresphere already installed - latest version
- scanned the library
- scrapped content provider
- mapped them together
- added a "cue point" with start and end times. xbvr picks them up flawlessly. made sure no hsp files is existing or it was ever opened.
- xbvr cannot parse hsp files as well and cannot extract tags or cue points.
- it picks up hsp files generally.
- enabled all features and options for heresphere I could find
- opened heresphere and navigated to the xbvr endpoint via browser. turned on streaming.
- i can see the library
- open the vid with the cue / tag
- heresphere shows the tag I added to xbvr
- heresphere does not pick up start and end times
- I select the tag and the vid starts from 00:00:00
In all:
- Not a fan of the web ui. Prefer my samba folder structure easily
- While xbvr is fantastic software, the documentation / tutorials leave much/all to be desired. It took me more time than I wanted to invest. Searching in discord is not fun.
- "getting HereSphere to read the data and write to hsp files with the HereSphere web API" is kinda vague but it does not work anyway
- I much much much prefer to set tags / cue points in xbvr than with heresphere even with keyboard/mouse. I bought it on here and not on steam on top.
