Heresphere shows my storage folders on both q2 and q3 headset as empty?

I have uploaded some scripts to use with the manual mode of the funscript player, but heresphere doesn't see them? I can see the files are in fact on the headset using sidequest.

Are you referring to the manual patterns mode? Did you name the funscripts so they start with "Pattern"? Funscripts won't show up in the file explorer (only videos and folders appear). Also make sure you've accepted the permissions needed for accessing your Quest storage.

Added Pattern_someNameHere.funscript to name. Funscripts still do not show up. File permissions are ok. 

I put a video in the same directory and the q3 shows the video in the file list, and plays the video, but does not show any of the funscript files that are in the same directory. 

When I slide the manual script pattern button, heresphere says uploading script (how would heresphere know which one to choose?), but script never uploads and script never plays.

I also added one funscript / video with matching names to the same directory, and playing that video in "regular" mode loads and starts the funscript just fine. In this case the funscript is still not visible in the file folder on the q3 headset, only the video can be seen in the file folder.

HereSphere doesn't show funscript files in the file explorer (where you browse for videos). It'll just automatically look for a matching funscript in the same folder with the same name when you play a video.

If your want to play a manual pattern, you need to start the name with "Pattern", and then place that script in the fallback script directory (default directory is "Interactive" on your Quest storage, create a folder if it doesn't exist). The script name will appear in the synchronized peripherals menu, in the manual script pattern row. You can select different patterns by clicking on the dropdown box.

I am only asking about manual patterns. I am not talking about matching funscripts to videos. I already have the interactive folder and heresphere can use it no problem.  What heresphere is not doing is allowing selection or playing of the manual funscripts.

I have several scripts that start with Pattern_xxx.funscript. 

There are no funscripts showing up in the dropdown selection window. Toggling the manual button does cause heresphere to give the message that the script is uploading (without any ability to select which one, but nothing ever uploads or plays, no matter how long you wait.

When you open the synchronized peripherals menu, is the path located at the bottom "/storage/emulated/0/Interactive"? Try changing the path, and then change it back to get the app to rescan the folder.

Ok, changing the directory a couple times and now I can see and select the files. I guess heresphere can't refresh on its own. Thanks.

in Key Bindings, is there a way to set a control for skipping ahead/fast forwarding a manual pattern?

Now that I have the manual patterns working, I have the same question -).

My current workaround is to just to split the manual pattern into several shorter segments with slow/medium/fast/etc. labels.

There isn't a way to seek the manual pattern. It'll be included with the new UI/UX update.
