Arcane Viewing beta 2

Hi again,

I've worked on improving Arcane Viewing, especially the user interface and I hope this version will make a lot of you happy as it has the number 1 request I've received : the ability to pop out the individual feeds and place them wherever you want.

I've received some really good feedback so far, though there were a couple of issues for some people, overall, I think Arcane Viewing is a success! 

There are a few improvements in this version,  but here's the short list : 

• GM can decide if they want Audio only, Video only or Audio + Video for the world.
• Ability to pop out and move/resize individual feeds
• Auto-resize camera feeds based on number of joined player, so it doesn't overlap the chat anymore
• Ability to hide the players list and cycle video sizes for the dock.
• Support for custom TURN server
• Various bug fixes

I think the main reason that some of you may have been put off in trying this is the need to turn on SSL, so here's a very quick guide on how to achieve it (note, this will use a publicly available SSL certificate that is self signed, so while it will allow you to use https/ssl/arcane-viewing, it won't make the connection any more secure than http) :

• Download this certificate file and this key file and put them in the your FVTT/resources/app folder
• Copy the options.json file from the ArcaneViewing module folder into the FVTT/resources/app folder (Alternatively, if you don't want to use the file I provided, edit your options.json file and add the following two line to it :  "sslKey": "localhost.key", "sslCert": "localhost.crt")
• Restart your FVTT server and make sure to use https now for the URL, because you're done!

It's that simple... Even though to have a properly secure https connection you would need a domain name and a properly signed ssl certificate by a certificate authority, you don't need all of that if it's just to try out Audio/Video calling.

Tomorrow and next week I'll be working on improving the features themselves rather than the UI (ability to control who can/can't share their video or audio, adaptive bitrate to handle low bandwidth scenarios, auto-reconnect in cases of network loss, etc..) and I will also work on the server side to have a more solid server implementation and add the TURN server in my config as well. I'll also be adding authentication and will contact you later on how to create a username/password for using my provided server.

Note: The 'video in the token' feature shown in the above video is still a work in progress and is incomplete so it's not currently available, but the next version will have an option to enable/disable that.

Thanks again everyone for your support, and I hope it works flawlessly for everyone, or at least, that more people can test it and report back to me if anything doesn't work perfectly!
