Go Show for Android

Now that more and more headsets are popping up for smartphones I started experimenting with a personal theater.. I know there are some key features it needs but.. its up!

I'm thinking mostly on the art side how cool it would be to watch LOTR in Rivendell or Jurassic Park deep in a jungle (with random dinos roaming around.)


Ideas, feedback ?

  • Just a little update, we added "remember last folder" users said they didn't always want to keep movies in Go Shows movie folder so now the app remembers the last folder you were in when you left the app. Also changed the look of the menu system a bit.

    Hi, i love your app. I downloaded the free version and it worked very good, even on my old HTC Evo 3D phone. I`ve tried to find the "Movies" folder for my own movies but there is no movies folder. Ive made a movie folder directly on the SDCard and put some mp4s in it, but nothing happend. In the app, i double tapped for movie selection and nothing happend. So the only movie it played is the Elephants Dream ;-) I hope there will be an option to "sit" in the first row, to get even bigger screen ;-) So far a great app, i will buy it when i find my movies folder :lol: Thank You for the great work!

    EDIT: OK, now i have the full version and so i can choose a movie folder. I didnt know that the free version plays only one movie, sorry.
  • Hi,
    Thanks for the awesome work on your GoShow app. I was wondering if you have any plans to implement VRplayer-type capabilities into GoShow. It would be perfect to be able to watch 360 degree videos on android with head tracking and a Dive HMD. I realize that to do so would take out the movie theater look, but it would be a nice option for android that I haven't found available anywhere yet. Thanks!
  • Has anyone found a template with measurements to make your own? Go Show has a PDF but I don't have a printer that can print this to scale (11x17). If I could get some measurements I could at least try it out until OR CV1 comes out.

    Hey, do you plan on adding youtube support for this? The maximum zoom of the screen overlaps the controls by the way in version 1.10. And sometimes trying to look to the remote is awkward, it would be better to activate it with voice commands or maybe some head gesture.
  • I just got my durovis dive :)!!! Had to get something to hold me over till I get my DK2. Got the app but I really want to watch 3d movies. But most of the ones I find are mkv, I tried to convert to mp4 with vlc player but there was no sound.

    Does anyone know where I can get good quality sbs 3d movies in mp4? Or any suggestions on good converters that will work?
