I overlooked this application a while ago, at the time it didn't work for my needs and refunded it. That said as I was using DEO VIdeo CPU Gobbler taking 50% sometimes even 100 percent of my CPU, it had to go. Tried Whirligig and it was way more usable, lightweight and the biggest selling point is it doesn't grind my computer to a halt. Respect to the developer for taking constructive feedback and making an insane application, has a lot of features other media players don't, I haven't run across any that autoplay the next file. That said its not really plug in play, you kind of have to mess around with it to get what you want and luckily thats where the save/load presets come in handy. Things I like Autoplay Cosmetic Controllers Customization of backgrounds Lightweight Random file feature, however i wish you could go back instead of that being random but maybe thats just me. like if you pressed Left on the left control stick. Slideshow However I do have some requests, Pausing once a menu has opened is really quite annoying, like if you skip ahead in the progress bar it pauses it there's ways to prevent this from happening like binding Up on the left controller to pause play and that's really the biggest complaint or lack of feature from me. png webp gif and ( i cant remember if jpeg was one of them) files don't seem to open hopefully that's fixed in the future. and lastly clicking on shortcuts in the explorer menu specifically the premade ones for clicking on Videos, Downloads or Images can and will break you from interacting with other media, if you try and go to one of your Shortcut 1-10 the files show up for a split second and disappear. which can be annoying cause you can fix the problem not knowing what you did or it doesn't fix at all. Also I don't know how to reprogram any of the Shortcuts 1 through 10

Deo VR started with low framerates and stuttering badly on loads of videos so I tried this out and it plays them all brilliantly. The UI takes a bit of getting used to but overall excellent.

By far the best VR media player I have found. It's worked for everything... and let's all be honest.. works for viewing corn and corn related VR videos.
