LordCrash fm duo cant do 12k at 60 fps so it means having to interpolate to 60 fps which is dumb. its a waste of resources and still gives a poor result. better off just recording at 8k 60 fps..
Anyone watched the new 12k VRBANGERS scene?
After having read some feedback on this scene, it seems that I was not the only one who thought that the surroundings benefited the most from whatever new set-up or technology VRB was using. I was most impressed by how sharp and detailed the city and skyline in the very far background looked.
Not knowing the first thing about video photography, how is it possible that filming in 12K alone can lead to such a result in a downscaled 8K video? Wouldn't you rather need improved optics to achieve such improved depth of field? Just wondering: Could it be that the whole 12K thing is just a decoy or marketing stunt and the actual breakthrough lies in another area (from which current standard 8K/6K filming could benefit as well)?
[deleted] yea, I dont have the latest GPU and only Deovr was able to load the video, I had to pause the video to see a frozen frame because playback was impossible. From what I could see, the quality was very impressive but not worth a sub for sure, I'll also wait for better talent to get the 8k versions moving forward.
spacepirate 100% agree, as usual, they wanted to beat everyone to the marketing fluff regardless if it was even watchable.
doublevr How are you planning on handling your new 10k rig? Will you be shooting in 10k and then downscaling to 8k so people can actually watch it? I'm not a huge fan of the K2 but your team has still managed to get some very crisp and good looking images out of it, so I would not be surprised if you end up settling with 8k moving forward.
Is resolution now more important than girls or the immersion that a well-shot VR gives you? 80% of what I watch is JAV VR, which is at 4K and sometimes the image quality is crap.... But I wouldn't trade it for a VRBangers movie at 12K....

im just waiting to decide on which headset to get once the latest one comes out and i see reviews of it so i can actually watch more than just the 4k videos i can handle just fine with my desktop

metichemsi PLAY'A VR app vs DeoVR - does it make any difference?
[deleted] I stopped using playa a long time ago but DeoVR was at least able to open the video and attempt to play it, albeit at like 1 frame per 20 seconds haha I was at least able to click pause and wait for the paused video to load the image and preview the quality of a paused 12 video. It looked great, better resolution than anything I have seen before. Looked like everything within 10 meters of the camera was perfectly in focus and sharp. It's a shame nothing can play 12k right now. I tried to encode it to h.265 but premiere pro could not even export h.265 past 8k
10k and 12k wasn't playable on my Quest 2, could only play the 8k video but it looked nice. I don't know if the camera used to shoot in 12k improved the 8k image as well or if I'm just seeing an improved 8k because I expected it. I can't tell for sure.
5 months later
Just noticed a new 12K scene coming soon.. I didn't notice they had done one previously
SchnuppiLilac Ill never get these simps..
In my experience the 8k version was more clear but yeah 10-12k is unplayable on current hardware
Still good to future-proof the content
TemporaryName Honestly, I hate the two models they chose for these 2 12k scenes. They have such hot chicks all the time and thats what they went with for their 2 12k scenes? Hard pass.
I'll at least want to see this upcoming one with Leana Lovings. I agree.. it wouldn't be my first pick either.. but the first 12k video I don't even want to look at. 12k or 50k, not at all intereted in Ryan Keely.
Can there be a limit to too large of a resolution on a headset with a fixed viewing size?
TemporaryName Looking forward to the Leana scene!
I didn't know Ryan Keely yet, but was pleasantly surprised tbh, kind of a fan now that scene is great, to each their own
