.NET Streamer [Stream/Download almost any TV Shows on internet]



Probably one of the project I'm most proud of it, here's .NET Streamer. As showed by the video, you can stream almost every TV Shows on internet. It uses WatchSeries.eu.

Everything's done through HttpWebRequest and works pretty fast.
I'm currently using the WMP Component to stream videos.

I'm planning to create a .SRT Support, to make the user able to sync his subtitles directly to the stream. I'll have to draw everything over the player, I don't think it'll be easy anyway.

I also added a function to download the episodes directly, and another one to put the video player at the top right and corner to make the user able to watch his show doing something else. That's all for now :).

SearchLyrics.NET [Search and add your lyrics to iTunes automatically]



Hi everyone, I've been away for a while, and I'm coming again today to show you my lastest project.

The concept is simple. You choose your song folder, and it'll search and add all lyrics directly to iTunes, automatically. Lyrics are searched on MetroLyrics.com.

MetroLyrics was a bitch to parse their lyrics, because they're all in ASCII Characters. I just had to split every chard and then converted them using a loop. Actually, I just filled my whole iPhone library with this tools, and it worked almost perfectly for every musics.
I don't anything else to say, the video is enough explicit. Thanks :).

iTunes Album Downloader.NET



Another release, pretty useful I guess. Here's how it works ; You go on iTunes, take the link of the album, copy/paste it in the program, and it'll download all the musics contained in, automatically. Musics are unfortunately downloaded in 128 kbps, but it works really well anyway. I don't have so much things to say about it, the video explain almost everything.

GuessMyDraw.NET - Multiplayer Game


This is, without a doubt, my bigger project and by far the one I am most proud. It took me almost 2 weeks to do all things. You may know the Iphone/Android game "DrawSomething". This is purely a remake of it. Actually, it's a TCP/IP based game. I cleary started from nothing, and coded almost everything from scratch. The project as been made in collaboration with a friend of mine. He lended me his website to host the project. The goal is pretty simple, and I'm sure you understood it watching the video, you need to make your opponent guessing your drawing. Currently, the project is stopped, and isn't playable anymore. 'Was really fun to code anyway :).

.NET Runner - Visual Basic Game


What's up ! Here's the second game I made, called ".NET Runner".
This is based on the famous Iphone/Android game "Line Runner". I spent a while creating the gravity, and finding a way to make the player moving, without doing a side-scroll. Actually, it's all the elements that moves, and not the contrary. This give you the illusion that you're walking. The goal is simple, you need to jump to avoids all cubes. To make the game harder, I added the ability to move back and forth. If you simply jump, you'll fail after 3 seconds. Even if it looks simple, I assure you it's really hard.

ASCII Art Generator - Convert your photo to text !


Hi everyone. Well, basically this will analyse all pixels of your photo and change them to a character depending on his contrast.
I made a lot of research to find which character would be as the more contrasted, and which one would be as the less, and I came up with this :  { "#", "#", "@", "%", "=", "+", "*", ":", "-", ".", " " }; As you guessed, the "#" is the character representing the most contrasted pixels, and the " " representing the less. I classed them in an array. The result is really impressing I guess, I never thought it would do that. Pretty nice all the way :).

Here's an example on notepad, reducing the character size to 2.



Pong Rocket.NET - Advanced Ping Pong Game

 


Here's my second project. That's a pretty hard game I made, based on the good old Ping Pong game. Basically, I added a random rocket system making the game really fun and hard to play. There's two type of rocket ; Simple Rocket & Target-Tracking rocket. Each time you hit the bot, you earn some points. The first who reach 40 pts, win. Simple as that. As usual, the GIF is self-explanatory. Had a lot of fun creating this game anyway :).

ScreenShotr - Easily share your screenshot.


Well, this has been my first real complete project. Based on the Gyazo software, this will basically allow you to screenshot a specific region of your screen, and then upload it directly to imgur.com to share it as fast as possible.
It has many features like the inbuilt image editor, pretty useful when you want to hide some information on your screenshots or the fully customizable hotkeys to take screenshot.
The GIF is self-explanatory, I don't have so much things to say.

Anyway, here's all the features :


- Inbuilt image editor
- Capture full desktop
- Capture a custom region
- Shortcuts are customizable to whatever you want
- Startup with windows
- Save image on AppData Folder
- Automatically copies URL to clipboard or Launch it into your webbrowser
- Notification of upload
