The latest early access version of Virtual DJ, introducing AI video generation and the ability to easily create our own visual shaders, is a real step forward, and kudos to the development team for this excellent work.
However, the current visual manager is truly rudimentary and seems outdated.
With the arrival of these new features, we now need display options (list, thumbnail, etc.), sorting/filtering by type (shaders, AI video, type, name) to show/hide/categorize visuals based on their content. Perhaps the ability to create folders by category would also be helpful.
The ability to rearrange the order of visuals (move up/down or something similar) is also needed, as currently visuals are added sequentially, and I haven't found any way to change their order.
The ability to add/import our own external video sequences/loops not generated by the software's internal AI is also crucial.
The ability to attach a PNG/bitmap file when creating an AI video for integration, for example, allowing users to write a prompt asking them to use the attached PNG logo to render it in 3D, rotate it, and then overlay it onto any other AI content. Of course, these videos should be able to be marked as private and not exported to the shared AI video server.
And above all, much better integration of the visuals manager with the rest of the software interface. For example, perhaps as a sidebar that can be displayed in the browser, as is the case for the sidelist/automix/sampler/karaoke. This would be much more practical to manage on a single screen, as the current visuals manager window overlays the existing interface and is only truly useful with a dual-monitor setup.
I tried to optimize my display space (1920x1080) to keep the VDJ interface and the visuals manager permanently displayed, knowing that I send the visuals full screen to external monitors in extended desktop mode.
The best I could achieve is this, but when the manager window is in list view so that it occupies as little space as possible, the window's navigation scroll bar stops working. It's therefore impossible to navigate within it without being in thumbnail view, which requires increasing the width of the visuals manager window.

It is already possible to create folders to classify them, and you can move in the list them via a drag'n'drap.
And in the worse case it is still possible to edit the xml with the list of visuals.
