Hello! We have released SLR app for Windows \ Quest. Release Notes: - New design (dashboard refactor) - Flat videos - Browser updated - Small bugs fixed. Hope you enjoy! Admin: Quest 2 users having an issue with DeoVR - Turn the tracking ON

The only piece of initial feedback I have was already mentioned by someone in another thread: 6 videos/thumbnails per page is far too few. Having to constantly click "next page" is less than ideal and detrimental to the quality of the app & experience. That quantity should definitely be either higher or adjustable.

Agreed update 9.0 is very disappointing. Also performance was choppy, video thumbnails often did not load but maybe this is not caused by the new app. Would much prefer to go back to the old version.

@crichards14#9372 [quote]video thumbnails often did not load[/quote] This I only had during first launch after update. You?

Thank you for your feedback. We're checking with devs to see what causes the the bugs in performance. And as for thumbnails we hear you, gonna make it adjustable, asap.

Sorry to hear that. We are definitely going to fix performance side of things as this update features some decent boost on the back end of things that should makes things smoother. We are still streamlining UI. The idea was to fit content your FOV. I agree the scrolling is required in excess now. We will be releasing very advanced search. It's also true that once one gets used to something and everything else would not be liked. Give it some time. We are definitely looking to improve things.

as the old adage goes. "if it ain't broke don't fix it" ... we should honestly just go back to the design of update 8.x

When the info dialog pops up the everything is fine. As soon as the dialog goes away the vr is bouncing all over and choppy. I am using oculus 2.

@ande1650#9382 that's a plan for the next iteration

just had an update load 9.02...still flickering, but I can see a tad improvement in the flickering hopefully, the next quick update will fix it

@spanker#9389 In the Oculus device options, not in the SLR/Deo app, enable Tracking.

SLR app update ver. 9.0

FredFeinbein

Two things which should be mentioned:

The current SLR App Version keeps logging me out. Cannot say when this happens, but usually once per session. Session means: Browser RSS Feed check for new scenes and invoking SLR App from Browser. Sometimes first start i'm logged off. Sometimes after 5th or 10th scene i'm logged out.
After invoking a scene, the first click on the seek bar set the slider at the end of the movie, thus exiting the scene. Please fix this: The UI focus should be catched by the current pointer position even on changing gui element(s).

FredFeinbein Can you check if logging out only happens when backing out of a video rather than skipping to the next video? Doesn't mean it happens every time you back out, just if that somehow triggers it.
Thanks!

Rakly3 turning on tracking completely fixed all issues with the new update for me. (Im on oculus quest 2)

Gartside

This fixed my issues too. Thanks YasiinBey!

In my case, the app does not load. When I open it, at first I see the SLR icon, then the circle like loading and then absolutely nothing happens, it just stucks at that point and does not do nor load any other thing.

Device: Xiaomi Mi A1
OS: Android One (9)

I have tried it in a Xiaomi Mi 10 Lite with MIUI 12.1.5 and it works fine, but not in Android One.

Also, the toggle to "free hands" mode doesn't work either.

Rakly3

Sexbass Did you update to 9.02 yet?

spanker

turning on the sensor guards solved the flickering problem 🙂

Rakly3

spanker You can leave guardian off, just have Tracking enabled.

keylox23

Rakly3 how do you leave guardian off? I can't seem to find that option.

I can lower my guardian sensitivity but can't find the option to turn it off altogether.

spanker

i will try that...the guards are a pain in the ass in the dark 🙂 now just need to find out where to get that done 🙂

The bugs in performance are from DeoViewer, which has the same problem. Microsoft removed the HEVC video codec from base installs and now charges .99 cents for it on the Microsoft Store. I downloaded the HEVC extension from microsoft but this didn't fix the issue. Something in DeoViewer's latest upgrade is causing problems with the HEVC codec. Even when I have the codec, performance is as if its not there. If you look down this lane, I'm sure you'll find the solution to the issue. It's not something users can fix. This is why VLC player works, because it comes with the codec out of the box and uses it appropriately unlike Deo.

Rakly3

keylox23 Which device?

powerguy

Also unable to enable hands free mode here. On 9.02, Android. I seem to remember the same thing happening the last time there was a major update as well.

keylox23

Rakly3 Quest 2.

I can turn tracking on and off but that also turns guardian on and off.

Can't find a setting that's independent.

bruce

keylox23 There is no independent option.

Samsonite121

keylox23 If you have developer activated (you need it to sideload the SLR App) you can turn off the guardian in the developer section of the Quest 2 settings.

Rakly3

Ah yes, maybe that's it, need developer mode turned on to be able to switch them independently from each-other.

Things I miss...
My Scripts toggle
When playing a video the info panel that showed up on the left with video description and names of talent. Was easy to just click studio or name to see more without having to backtrack and search.
More videos per page

Getmein

So will there be a permanent fix for this? Or is the only solution doing the tracking/gaurdian thing. I havent been able to use the app properly because of the guardian, which i usually leave off.

Yes, we are working on fixing it. It's just a bit more complicated than simply rolling back to v8.x . It's more than a cosmetic change and also more than only the app. It would likely be easier if Oculus updated their OS.
