Pico 4

jaede

but i have full vr videos on my ocolus but there are split in 2 but how i get it to 1 360 degree movie ?

jaede If you're using the SLR app (or pretty much any VR player) it should automatically display the scene as SBS (side-by-side) video, which is what makes a VR scene "3d". If it didn't automatically do this you may need to go into the player settings and adjust it to 200 or 180 degree SBS.

There aren't really very many recent 360 degree scenes. 99.9% of scenes these days will be 180-200 degree.

I used sidequest to install the Pico version of DeoVR on my Pico 4. Doesn't work. As soon as I go to sexlikereal.com I just get three rotating dots and the page won't load.

When oh when will we get a working deovr app for Pico 4? It's been 2 months since the headset was released.

🙁

it works already...
switch to "unknown apps" and there just open "deovr"...after go to slr and you can play any video and passthrough...

or just click from browser the "deovr icon" and the app should open and play.

you do something wrong because here everything works with deovr and slr...
or maybe deovr got bad update on sidequest...possible too.

Thanks for trying to help, but I'm afraid your instructions are exactly the process I followed, and it doesn't work. Just get stuck with the three rotating dots of doom 🙁

Hey anyone update from a q2 to a pico 4 and used pass-through on both have a review if the color pass-through is way Hella funner then on the q2, I'd like to hear

Cuz im thinking ima go on ahead and make the leap, I'm thinking qp way to much. The new q3 might be like 500$ or more and right now the pico 4 like 380$ can't beat that price right now.

I'm thinking about it. But manly cuz it has color pass-through 🤔

Vrsumo2017 Quest Pro is what you really want for color passthrough

Stefan23121

The Quest 2 pass-through is black and white and 2D. The Pico 4 passthrough is in colour and 3D. The resolution of the Pico 4's passthrough is good, you can read displays. I use it in VR games to make settings on the computer. Now I don't have to take the glasses off. The 3D passthrough seems to be software generated. The proportions are not quite right. But it has been significantly improved with the last update. The resolution of the Pico 4's passthrough is higher than that of the Quest Pro, but the 3D view is supposed to be better on the Quest Pro.

So do I ....
Change to the Pico 4 or wait for the Quest 3 ...(?) Sure - you could sell the Q2 but who knows if the passthrough on the Quest 3 will be better or worse than on the Pico 4 ...

I been seeing reviews some users say the pass-through on pico doesn't look 3d-ish or they saying things look further cuz pico using one camera for pt.

So now I'm debating on getting it.

I dare someone to film sum laying cg or standing doggy, give an example how it look. 😏

Idk, I might just buy it anyway just to have it.

Hey, idk if it's correct or not but I searched pico 4 on Walmart website and they had it available for order in
I was thinking wth, this can't be right 🤔

Vrsumo2017

Anton Sure - you could sell the Q2

Nah, ima keep the q2, but I'm thinking about getting the pico, just gotta save up a Lil 👍

I'm almost for sure the q3 gonna be more then 400$ or more
At 380$ that pico looks like a good deal. 👍

I've seen sum pass-through on YouTube, looks good but I'm curious about the pass-through used with vrp.

Vrsumo2017 As much as you talk about passthrough on all the sites we all know you are going to get the pico 4.

Vrsumo2017

rerun119 hell yeah, that pt is something else 👍🥵

Just checked the PICO 4 and it's quite good. For now you can sideload DeoVR using sidequest and its working fine. Passthrough is a bit different maybe in a better way since its monoscopic
The colorful see through is vivid and as sharp as on Quest Pro and MAYBE even a little better or at least as good as.
Note that this is my personal experience and yours might be completely different.

I have a Pimax 8kx, Pico 4 and Valve Index. Pico 4 is pretty nice: lightweight, nice passthrough, no hassle (wireless, no pc) and Deovr's streaming is way faster at seeking than on pc for some reason. Still even though the pico should have the same amount of pixels vertically it looks noticeably lower res to me than on the Pimax 8kx (I wonder if DeoVr is using the native resolution of the pico 4?).
As far as the FOV goes it kinda sucks. It's a really big downgrade in terms of experience compared to the 8kx and even a noticeable downgrade from the index (I guess a custom face gasket could help a little since really pushing the headset to your face makes the FOV a little better).
Still, I think the Pimax 8kx remains the best headset for porn by quite a big margin at this moment (even with the Pimax experience...). Just wish it was Valve or something that made these high res headsets and that there was a good passthrough. Maybe, the Deckard...

I read something that the Pico 4's chip, Qualcomm Snapdradon XR2, can't play 8K natively. Therefore, the image is probably scaled up. But also good, the resolution is higher and pixels are not visible.
Passthrough looks good on the Pico 4. I'd love to upload a video, but then I'd have to clean my place first.
My dick looks bigger in VR passthrough.

fenderwq I also have a Pimax 8K X. Everybody talks about the best headset but if they don't say that the 8KX then it's cause they have never tried one. It is light years ahead of the Q2.

Fenderwq are you going to trade in for the 12K?

Passthrough hack with Pico 4.
I just tried to remove the faceplate to see if I can get a better FOV and although it does slightly, the biggest win was the immersion. Having no top, side or bottom makes it feel like you are just wearing a pair of big heavy sunglasses. But the experience is even more amazing when watching a video in Passthrough mode. It feels even more like the subject is in your room. Now it’s a matter of removing everything as far as background etc in a clean way to not distract from the immersion. I mentioned this in separate thread but I really think SLR should separate videos exclusively to play in Passthrough.

Stefan23121 it's upscaled? Well that would explain it, thanks

i download some 8k clips and noticed that in deovr it looks some better than the picos player...
and the passthrough clips even better...

im wondering if it is possible just to change and replace the 16megapixel camera with some higher megapixel and get so higher resolution ? would passthrough quality get even better ? would that work ?

the picos passthrough is not bad but there much space to improve when it comes to resolution and quality and light...i believe the 16megapixel just not enough for that...

or im wrong about that ? and 16 megapixel are enough ?

Vrsumo2017

Yeah, I'm just gonna get it cuz that price is to good to pass up. 👍

rerun119 Have been waiting for that one for a long time and it should have actually been released by now. The trade in deal is pretty sweet so was looking forward to the upgrade.
Still it seems they have gotten distracted by the crystal and than the frontier. As the crystal is set to launch somewhere in March now and the 12k will likely launch months after that as it's "70% done" according to Pimax.
Well have to see what happens in the meantime. Would be great to get the visual bump due to better lenses and higher resolution. Maybe they even have a half decent MR faceplate by then.
I wonder how much sharper of an image we can get from the 8kx to the 12k for video (the maximum decodable resolution being 8192x8192 for even the rtx 4090) but I'm hopeful.
So yeah, I'll likely upgrade.

rerun119

fenderwq I had read somewhere that Pimax was going to make the 12K work on their own site instead of steam. That scares me if that is true. The up side to the 12K is that it is going to have passthrough.

If Vrsumo2017 ever tried the 12K with color passthrough he would lose his mind
