VRXVR Terrible plan, not that they care for offline full resolution users clearly, but I wonder how many of their users are even on a 30 series card haha all in the name of further pushing streaming and cutting costs

Hairsational thats exactly what I meant, its no good, have fun upgrading your gpu to a 30 series or higher, if you already have one, you should be ok, but get used to having to conform to their standards, I say get as many of your favorite scenes in full quality while you can

VRXVR Can you give me a link to the FREE AV1 codex? When I try to look it up it says it is .99$. I don't want to give them pay CC for .99$

    Hairsational Maybe I don't understand. I click on the "install" button and it opens the Microsoft store window.
    Then what do you do? It says "open" Then it just takes you to movies you can buy.
    At the bottom of the Microsoft window there is a place you can buy the AV1 video extension for .99$

    Maybe I already have it? I'm not sure

      rerun119 Are you looking at HEVC or AV1? The HEVC extensions costs $0.99 because the HEVC codec has royalties. The AV1 extension should be free because the AV1 codec is royalty-free. Are you using Windows 10 or 11?

        Vrsumo2017 yeah, I know what you mean, the idea is good. Not sure we will implement it any time soon, but it can be implemented in the new rebuilt app (Hyper) when it's ready

        Hairsational Windows 11.
        I am looking for AV1 and that is what the link says
        Did you try clicking on the install button from the link you provided? Try it if you didn't, please.
        Click on the big blue box that says "install" it takes me to a second popup box that now has a gray box with "open" on it.
        Then what do I do?

        Dont know if it was already mentioned here but passthrough videos arent working on PCVR DEOVR app?

        It works on heresphere. In deovr the background is black. So another reason why heresphere is better than deovr.

          mixbets78 they dont care for local offline playback and have virtually killed off their PCVR apps, heresphere has always been and will continue to be the best option for local playback, dont even bother asking them about it, all they care about is streaming

            metichemsi I'm talking about streaming from DEOVR APP on PCVR. The native passthrough videos of SLR on deovr app when streaming it gives me a black background. I have tried several settings but didnt make it to work.

            4 months later

            I have one year of experience with heresphere (without knowing all the detailed settings) and have been using the DEOVR player for two months now because of SLR.
            I'm really a normal casual user, so I can't say anything about the thousands of settings in heresphere that might be better than DEOVR. But what I find better about heresphere is the perspective setting. If I want to adjust the scenery to my lower body, it's much easier and much more intuitive with heresphere. This is sometimes a bit more complicated with DEOVR. First of all, you have to aim precisely at the button at the bottom right, whereby the bar is sometimes slightly outside the field of vision. Then it doesn't always work when you try to hold this button. And if you want to move the scenery, the bar is often in the field of vision, so that precise positioning of the scenery is not possible due to the restricted view.
            All this is much easier with heresphere. You just press the trigger button and move the scenerey as you like.

            (I use Quest 3s standalone)

              VincentVega04 for the perspective adjustments in DeoVR, I have configured both controllers so that I can adjust the pitch tilt and yaw using the thumbsticks, its very easy and i got into the habit of making a 1000 micro adjustments per minute as i'm watching a scene hehehe, the controllers never leave my hands which was weird at the start

              hey, is it better than skybox and worth the $15 they ask for? can anyone help please, since deovr latest update warps any video I play, so I'll not use it again and I use skybox at the moment.

                Every player has it's advantages and disadvantages

                  doublevr sure. thank you. I mean any line that supposes to be straight is now looking curved. for example, where the wall meets the ceiling or the portrait on the walls, they look curved instead of normal equirectangular. I get dizzy when watching the videos on latest deovr. it's like I'm on drugs or something. lol.

                    Silly-Sausage yeah. hoped for more detailed reply to be honest. but thank you so much man, you're right. It's ok, I'll do some searching on this.

                      filgan I did intitially give a more detailed response, but i've become disiillusioned and stepping back from being the good guy - sorry, i'm sure somone else will help and tell you to reset your headset or read from the script.
