DJ VIDEOS

2 - SMTP (Email) Configuration - OPTIONAL

What is it for? SMTP configuration lets you send by email the list of videos your guests "liked" during your party. If you do not use this feature, you can skip this section.

Use case:

Imagine you are organising a wedding. The guests use the remote control to "like" their favourite songs. At the end of the evening, the couple automatically receives an email with the full list of the 20 most-liked songs. Perfect for creating a keepsake playlist!

What you need:

A Gmail email account (or another SMTP provider)
An "app password" (not your usual Gmail password)

Setting up with Gmail (recommended):

Step 1: Enable 2-step verification

Go to myaccount.google.com
Left-hand menu: Security
"Signing in to Google" section: click 2-Step Verification
Follow the instructions to enable it (it is free and makes your account more secure)

Step 2: Create an app password

Still in Security
"Signing in to Google" section: look for App passwords
You will be asked for your Gmail password - enter it
Under "Select app": choose Other (custom name)
Type "DJ Vidéos"
Click Generate
A password is displayed (16 characters): abcd efgh ijkl mnop
Copy this password (with or without the spaces, both work)

Setting it up in DJ VIDEOS:

In the setup wizard, in the "Email Configuration (SMTP)" section
SMTP server: smtp.gmail.com (pre-filled)
Port: 587 (pre-filled)
Email address: your full Gmail address (e.g. monadresse@gmail.com)
Password: paste the app password (all 16 characters)
Sender name: what will appear as the sender (e.g. "DJ Vidéos Party")
Click "Test sending" to check
If the test succeeds, click "Save"

Setup complete! You can now send emails with the liked videos. Sending takes a single click from the DJ VIDEOS interface.

Other email providers:

Outlook / Hotmail:

Server: smtp-mail.outlook.com
Port: 587
Use your Outlook email address and password

Yahoo:

Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 587
Also requires an "app password"

Remote Control: Control everything from your smartphone via QR code, with a real-time video preview

Automation: DJ VIDEOS can automatically trigger a playlist at a given time (or a "date + time" event such as New Year's Eve).

Goal: let each user (remote control) send their list of "liked" videos by email.

Full backup: export your playlists to transfer them, archive them or share them.

Trial period: 7 free days to try all the features

Interactivity: Your guests can suggest videos from their smartphones! Suggestions are added to the queue and played in order.

Tip: Set reasonable limits (e.g. 3 suggestions per person, 2 minutes' cooldown) to ensure fair sharing between all guests.

Administration: A complete interface to manage users, moderate suggestions and control the party.

Important: Superuser mode is accessible only with the password. Do not share this password with your guests!

Access control: Protect your party with a PIN code and anti-fraud mechanisms.

Hands-free: Control DJ VIDEOS by voice from your smartphone remote. Ideal when your hands are full!

Troubleshooting: If the microphone does not work, check that you are using the HTTPS URL (not HTTP), that the microphone is allowed in the browser permissions, and that your phone is not in silent mode.

Smart balancing: DJ VIDEOS automatically alternates between videos suggested by your guests and random videos from your playlists for a perfectly balanced party!

DJ tip: The alternation ensures that your carefully prepared playlists stay present even when guests are very active!

Atmosphere: 11 spectacular visual effects, controllable from the remote, to liven up your party!

Warning: Some effects (Brightness Flash, Contrast Pump) can be intense. Avoid using them if photosensitive people are present.
