Hey everyone!
13.6 Update is available:

Release notes:

New Features:

  • Shorts - carefully picked short-form videos, which can be seen on the dashboard
  • Subtitles - (SRT) are now supported for local files
    • They need to be in SRT format and should be named the same as the video (ex.: if video is named video.mp4, then subtitles should be named video.srt)
    • They are enabled automatically if player finds subtitles locally - you can disable them via button on Player panel or inside Subtitles tab under player settings
    • They can be moved in space by clicking on them and dragging
    • Additional options like Font size, Depth and Background opacity can set inside Subtitles tab
  • Haptics - Added Return to Base, Play/Pause, Edging mode and Manual mode buttons to Haptics tab
    These commands sync with the commands inside Haptics Connect app

Bug fixes:

  • Player timeline now properly aligns blue sections with seeker

Improvements:

  • Like button now gives instant feedback
  • Split Options tab inside player settings into Player and Video options
  • Changed the timeline seeker graphic to Ring when Timeline script overlay is enabled
  • Controller bindings for toggling Pause script, Manual mode and Edging mode have been revised

Other Changes:

  • Removed Christmas 2022 as default virtual environment

    Look great. Thanks for the improvements!

    One thing I’ve been asking a long time is for setting prefs like speed control to “remember” their last setting (at least within a session) rather than going to defaults every time a movie changes. The other main players do this.

    Last time I received an answer that these sticky setting controls were supposed to already be there. I think this was nearly a year ago.

      argyle43 Hey, if you are refering to playback speed, we just added this under video tab, you are free to set it at any speed as default now.

        Sandi_SLR Awesome! Thanks for fixing the centering function while using zoom for the Quest version of the app. It works perfect now. (I was still having issues even when using the suggested Quest re-center button on the past few app versions. It wouldn't recenter correctly if I was laying on my back or looking straight down.) Now it's perfect.

        Now I can get the passthrough videos looking just right for my eyes/perception and body position. And it's amazing!

        Also the shorts are a neat addition. Looks cool. Thank you!

        dango789 Hey, we are doing an intermediate release to fix this issue, its scheduled for February 13.

        What exactly is this update referring to?
        Can we get a direct link to the update?
        I don't see any of the Haptics stuff you are talking about in either deovr or the slr app?

        And, any idea when changing the playback speed will be possible without turning off the script, i.e. 75% video playback speed will play script at 75% of speed (heresphere does this already).

          sex33 Yes, for now we released it for local files to iron out the experience, so feel free to try it.

          Next step is to add it for streaming videos too 😉

          Having trouble after update SLR app, the videos doesnt load up in home page, apparently the bottom menu bar is ok, nothing else loads

            kissmeho Hey, can I kindly ask you to open global settings from bottom panel, go to last tab "bug report", click "Send" and write to support email with the ID you received after clicking Send. Thank you.

              Quest2.

              Both deovr and the slr app say 13.6 in the bottom left, so I assume they are updated.

              But more reading and I now have found that none of this is of any use to me as handy is not supported?

                Rakly3 I think he means the edging and pause buttons for the handy. I was really excited for this too and changed my controller setup just to find out that it did nothing. Disappointed
