I have found a way to cheat a program even when it's password locked. If you press Win + D (Windows 11) or just click the far right corner of the taskbar you can minimize all the windows including HotScreen. This way no censorship is applied. Could you do something about it in the next update?

PerfectFox265Developer1 year ago

Thank you for telling me. I will correct that.

When you enable random collection it enables all the collections until first switch happens. Was trying to use random collection inside random collection but it kept enabling all the collections when the top random collection switch happened.

Some detections don't work in full-screen unless I turn off detect small bodyparts x4

PerfectFox265Developer325 days ago

"in full screen" You mean if you watch a video/game in fullscreen ? Weird.
Is Detect small bodyparts on wide screen enabled ?

HotpointUser325 days ago (2 edits)

Yes Detect Small body parts on widescreen was enabled. I think it was just one time, I'm not sure. I'll mention it again if it notice it or it starts bothering me.

Don't mean to send you on a wild goose chase but I am seeing boxes work on thumbnails and then when enlarged it's no longer censoring it.

Specifically for me it's the reveal area censor function.

HotpointUser321 days ago(+1)

Would be nice if the pixel slider bar was bigger or had a field to enter the exact #. It is hard to get precise. Maybe increase font size too. Thank you.

lindsey988316 days ago

The overlay doesn't always stay on top when a new window is opened. I have to manually alt-tab back to it for the censorship to work.

It's only detecting my wallpaper and not any applications I have open. What may be happening?

Lady Trauma314 days ago

I have messed with the config a bunch and it's still having extremely poor detection of anything that isn't my wallpaper.

PerfectFox265Developer313 days ago

This settings should work well, especially for realistic style. Black&white expressive 2d style can be hard to detect, even for the finetuned anime model.

Lady Trauma313 days ago

I have attempted toggling all of them, but it doesn't seem to work. However it seems to be tied to screen recording. Starting it recording on my 2nd screen makes it briefly work on my first screen. But them it breaks about 2 minutes later and stops functioning again.

When using DXGI and adding a Screen Latency larger than zero, my screen gamma seems to be thrown out of whack. Funnily enough I can't capture it on a screenshot because it corrects it. It works with BITMAP recording method just fine.

Hotscreen doesn't work with HDR but I don't think it's the problem here. Where do you set the gamma of your screen, in the AMD settings ?

oklater321307 days ago

Hi, I downloaded the full version today and I'm having trouble with the app's opacity. The menu is semi-transparent from the start, and when I launch any collection, the censors also easily show through, even with opacity set to 100%.

PerfectFox265Developer307 days ago

This is an incredible bug. You don't have the last update of DirectX12 (neither Windows) so you should update your graphic drivers and test it again.

Gyrtz298 days ago(+1)

Just updated to v0.7 from 0.6 and it seems that the Screen Latency to detect delay keeps resetting to 0 frames after a few minutes. Appears to even happen when the app is in 'Locked' mode so it's definitely not being manually updated when it reverts from the previous value

Wombatant1292 days ago

I believe it's a countermeasure necessary to avoid freezing your pc - in v0.6 it was set so any time that your pc lagged, it got set back to 0. In 0.7 it got changed, but I can still notice this changing to 0, especially after some resource devouring actions

WeberKurz231 days ago

This seems to be related to my (small) issue in 0.8.

'Screen latency to correct delay' seems to reset after starting up my pc and this the program again.

I haven't noticed it resetting during use.

Thanks for considering solving this.

---

I have to set this setting to 10 and all filter to `Stay detected during 1 second` to avoid seeing uncensored images on a next page or the current pages gets uncensored very briefly while the censoring for the next page already pops up.

My PC is pretty new and drivers are up to date so I believe `low framerate` shouldn't be a big issue.

Do maybe others have experience with this? Am I using it wrong / is there maybe another workaround?

Thanks.

taberashibby293 days ago

0.7 opens for a split second and then closes. 0.5 worked fine for me. How do i fix it?

PerfectFox265Developer291 days ago

If hotscreen_logs.txt is not created, start hotscreen.exe from a command line :
Right click on the Hotscreen folder -> Open in Terminal Then type hotscreen.exe

humiliatechris289 days ago(+1)

have told hotscreen to open up (0.7) on startup. It clearly does but the blocking doesn't work until I close it and reopen it, is this a known bug?

PerfectFox265Developer282 days ago

Weird. I just tested it on windows 10 and 11 and it worked. Be sure to have Screen selected at startup to Last used screen. (in case you have multiple monitors)

humiliatechris280 days ago

i only have the one screen. it starts up as planned but the filters just do not work at all. i have to close and reopen for the filters to work.

humiliatechris279 days ago(+1)

looked through my screen options and it had
0 Nvidia - GPU
1 AMD - iGPU
2 Nvidia - GPU

so it was listing 0 and 2 as same device. i have chosen 2 now and it may have fixed it. Thanks for the pointer

GOONDRONE279 days ago

Hi, I have the following problem: when I lock HotScreen with a password, for example with the password 123, and then restart the PC, HotScreen starts as it should when Windows starts. However, HotScreen is no longer locked, but it behaves as if it were locked; that is, it cannot be closed until I re-enter the password in the field where it is normally entered to lock it. After restarting, I can freely use the HotScreen menu.

GOONDRONE279 days ago

To briefly summarize the problem again, if I have entered a password and then restart the PC, the HotScreen menu is no longer locked but starts without the lock, although it behaves as if it were locked.

PerfectFox265Developer278 days ago

Indeed ! I fix this.

GOONDRONE278 days ago

Hello, I've tried several hours to create a video with OBS, but I get not a single one which includes the record and the censors. Can you explain please, in which order I have to set the sources (Overlay/video/Recorded window) and if there are any other settings, that I have to change?

Fixed !

HotpointUser265 days ago

It would be nice if the 'Detect only on a custom area of the screen' function worked for the inverted boxes as well so I can stop it from censoring the tabs as well.

Wombatant1258 days ago

in 0.8, when hotscreen gets paused, latency correction get's flushed - would be great if there would be an option to keep it stored, so when hotscreen gets resumend, latency correction is still there

PerfectFox265Developer258 days ago

Noted ! I will also rework how the latency is set to 0 when the framerate is low, since it seems annoying on some configs.

sillyween258 days ago

I usually use my iPad as a monitor for my PC with Moonlight/Apollo for privacy. I've tried using this program on the iPad, but it doesn't work, there's no censorship. It works fine on the real monitor.

PerfectFox265Developer257 days ago

This is the same problem as this : /t/5594887/not-working-in-virtualdesktop
You have to use the button in Tools -> Create a recordable window to be able to stream the overlay. However, you have to hide this recordable window to let Hotscreen see what is visible under the censor. This means that Moonlight/Apollo must have a compositing setting to recreate the entire desktop+overlay.

WeberKurz257 days ago

Hi,

I tried out the 0.8 Demo software on Windows 11.

Unfortunately simply opening Windows explorer and opening any image, will make the overlay move to the background (or something).

I have to select the overlay in the taskbar again.

Is this a known issue or only my system?

If this can be fixed, I will probably support on patreon.

Thanks.

PerfectFox265Developer257 days ago

In the Tools menu, you can check Prevent the overlay to be minimized. If that doesn't help, be sure to update your GPU drivers.

WeberKurz257 days ago (1 edit)

Thanks for the advice.

I tested some more and seem to be getting closer to the root cause.

How to NOT reproduce the issue: use the `Photos Legacy` app!
I am happy I found this.

How to reproduce the previous issue:

In Windows 11, open Explorer.
Go to a folder with photos (mosaic view).
Censoring is workin fine.
Open any picture with the `Photos` app.
Censoring is workin fine.
Close the photo by pressing `X` in the top right corner of ALT+F4. (The effect is the same for both)
Censoring is no longer working fine.
The censoring overlay seems to pull back behind Explorer.

Workaround: hover over the taskbar `photo` program and close the photo by clicking `x` there.

I tried version 0.6 which does not have the `Prevent the overlay to be minimized` option and 0.8 which has it.
It doesn't make a difference for the issue.

I updated the driver for my GPU Radeon RX550/550 Series and rebooted though it does not seem to make a difference.
