Explorador de Archivos has no external configuration file — all settings are hardcoded constants in the source. Before building and distributing the application, update every path and credential listed on this page to match your own environment and accounts. Failing to do so will cause missing icons, broken API lookups, and recorder failures at runtime.
Icon Image Paths
These paths are hardcoded in Form1.cs inside the LoadCustomIcons() method. They point to the original developer’s Downloads folder and will not exist on any other machine. Update each path to a location that is valid on your system before building.
| Constant | Default Value | Purpose |
|---|
| Video icon | C:\Users\josel\Downloads\video-player_10421039.png | Icon displayed next to video files in the main grid |
| Music icon | C:\Users\josel\Downloads\music_2402461.png | Icon displayed next to audio files |
| Text icon | C:\Users\josel\Downloads\file_2521903.png | Icon displayed next to text and data files |
| Folder icon | C:\Users\josel\Downloads\shared-folder_5542294.png | Icon displayed next to directories |
| Other icon | C:\Users\josel\Downloads\incognito_7921015.png | Icon displayed for unrecognized file types |
| Image icon | C:\Users\josel\Downloads\image_icon.png | Icon displayed next to image files |
File.Exists returns false for any of these paths, AddImage returns -1 and the corresponding icon column in the grid will be empty for that file type.
Audio Player Paths
The following paths are hardcoded in FormMP3.cs as field initializers and are read immediately when the form is constructed.
| Constant | Default Value | Purpose |
|---|
| Default album art | C:/Users/josel/Downloads/compact-disk.png | Fallback image shown in pictureBoxAlbum when no album art can be fetched from Spotify |
| Play button image | C:/Users/josel/Downloads/play-button_5072289.png | Image used for the play control button |
| Pause button image | C:/Users/josel/Downloads/pause.png | Image used for the pause control button |
Playlist State File
The audio player automatically saves its full playlist state — including track list, current index, and playback position — to the following file:
%AppData%\MiReproductor\playlist.json
Directory.CreateDirectory. The file is written on form close and read back on next launch inside CargarEstado(). If the file is missing or contains paths that no longer exist, those tracks are silently skipped.
Music API Credentials
The credentials below are the original developer’s personal API keys. They are committed directly in FormMP3.cs as local constants in the constructor. Replace them with credentials from your own Genius and Spotify API applications before distributing the application, and never commit real secrets to a public repository.
const string geniusToken = "IOSnEinv18eVvuJXfneYTML287cEol2kggWCOlBtqUdlznnCBzacDghWCdhSrY7L";
const string spotifyClientId = "0ea2be936ec7419abbb440b806b34aa9";
const string spotifyClientSecret = "8c0371ae2ff849a28da6c25935dcc62e";
MusicMetadataFetcher constructor. If any credential is invalid or revoked, lyrics and album art lookups will fail silently; the player will continue to function but without metadata enrichment.
Recorder Configuration
FormGrabadora uses the following constants for capture resolution, frame rate, and output location.
| Constant | Value | Description |
|---|
VIDEO_WIDTH | 1280 | Recording width in pixels |
VIDEO_HEIGHT | 720 | Recording height in pixels |
VIDEO_FPS | 30 | Frames per second for video capture |
AUDIO_SAMPLE_RATE | 44100 | Audio sample rate in Hz |
_ffmpegPath | ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe | Path to the FFMpeg executable, relative to the application directory |
_recordingsFolder | %LocalAppData%\Grabaciones | Directory where completed recordings are saved |
_ffmpegPath value is relative to the application’s executable directory. You must place ffmpeg.exe at <AppDir>\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe before the recorder can mux audio and video into a final output file. Download FFMpeg from ffmpeg.org/download.html.
Email Settings
EmailSettings persists the sender’s email address as JSON at:
%AppData%\<AppVersion>\email_settings.json
Application.UserAppDataPath. SMTP host, port, and password are entered by the user inside FormCorreoEnvio each session and are not stored on disk.
Consider moving all hardcoded paths and API credentials to an appsettings.json file (loaded via Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration) or to the Windows Registry under a per-user key. Doing so allows you to ship a single build to multiple machines without modifying source code, and makes it straightforward to rotate API keys without a recompile.
