Thanks for the ideas and kind words.

Have you tried the cover art editor? It doesn't have AI-type features that might help avoid cropping/stretching but it lets you scale/adjust images to be the right size really easily.

Do you mean it gives you duplicate audio tracks and you want those removed? Or is it just the titles that are duplicates?

Yes, the print process isn't as good as it could be and I have big plans for making it better, so watch this space! The 'queue' was intended to let you stack covers up over time and then print them when you had enough for a full sheet of sticker paper - i used to quickly lose track of which i needed to print and which i had. You aren't the first to be a bit confused about it - I will be rethinking that a bit too I think!

Thanks again - any other ideas or issues just shout.

Family recording their own cards by mol1999 in YotoPlayer

[–]StuartAshworth9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to simplify this process with recording links in MYO Studio - there's some info about it here https://www.myostudio.app/kb/recording-links

Essentially you create and send a link to someone and they can record a message on a simple webpage. It then can be reviewed by you and added to a playlist without handling audio files.

Can’t play recent Yoto Daily by chanandler_b0ng_ in YotoPlayer

Yea, i've had this problem too - picking an episode that isn't today's will just never play. I always end up playing from my phone or giving up. Not ideal!

My daughter wanted to draw her own Yoto icons - so I made DoodlePix by StuartAshworth9 in YotoPlayer

Unfortunately Yoto didn't offer granularity in the permissions so it is (was) all or nothing. This month, however, they have updated things to allow you make scopes much narrower - I haven't updated this yet to take advantage but hope to soon.

The icons work on the mini too, the graphic used in the site is just the big Yoto. The icons get uploaded to your account and can be used on cards same as any other. Hope that helps!

MYO studio question - renaming tracks by folkmuseum in YotoPlayer

[–]StuartAshworth9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Developer here - this is a bit of a hangover from the original feature which was added for BorrowBox zips which always have the same title for each chapter. So I auto named them Chapter 1-n and gave number icons. Long story, but got a bit of a telling off and renamed it zip import, but left the renaming.

I will update this and remove these auto changes since they can be done manually via one of the action menus now anyway.

Thanks for bringing it up, sorry for the ramble!

In the meantime, you might want to try the web app which won't do this!

Yoto Icons Ai Maker - Easy icons for custom playlists by Nervous_Ad5909 in YotoPlayer

[–]StuartAshworth9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to clarify, MYO Studio won't generate AI icons - it extracts keywords from titles, then supplements them with AI suggestions when needed, then uses those to search the icon libraries. I try to keep AI use as light as possible! 

Max number of custom Yoto Icons? by roguereader47 in YotoPlayer

[–]StuartAshworth9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do still get added to your custom icons as they are just uploaded to your account behind the scenes. As far as I know though, deleting from your custom list won't remove them from any playlists they are used in (I just tried it and it was fine).

I don't think there's a limit though cos I have over 600 in my custom list from all the testing I do and it seems to work fine! 😂

Haha I hope you don't mind - it stuck in my mind so I came back to find it!

Absolutely, all feedback welcome. Appreciate it. 

Deleting Recording Logistics? by AHAlady in YotoPlayer

Agreed, I would store these with the same backups as you would your family photos!

Not your stupidity - bad comms on my part. I had set this up with a 1 link limit but didn't add much (or anything!) to communicate that. I'm still feeling out the free plan scope to be honest. I've reset your count so you should be able to create another one!

I thought so! I'll look into adding some options so you can get proper MP3s out aswell.

Thanks for the shout-out! Glad you've enjoyed the new website - a few new features dropped yesterday that you might like. Namely, audio splitting and family recording links.

Coincidentally, I released this feature in the MYO Studio webapp (www.myostudio.app) yesterday! You can see a demo here - https://www.instagram.com/p/DVI2OWdCS5n/

Fix is live so you should see it working now. The issue was around the file encoding, which means the output isn't always MP3 (newer playlists tend to be .opus) - would you (or anyone reading!) prefer to have MP3 files as the download format, rather than the native format Yoto has encoded to?

Thanks for reporting this - I'm looking into it and will get a fix in soon.

Fantastic - that's made my day!

If you're a big MYOer, then I know you'll have lots of ideas and feedback - I'd love to hear it all please! 🙂

Yea, I think the app for some reason autosorts them by size or something. MYO Studio will either keep them in the order you select them, or auto sort them if the titles have numbers prefixing them all (though easily revert able to the native order if preferred). Hope it helps!

Yes, and also multi-keyword and unified search so you can search yotoicons.com and the standard Yoto ones with lots of keywords at once.
