  • Is Quest 3 actually better?

I don't think it's worth upgrading from the Pico 4, to be honest. The Quest 3 does look sharper, and the passthrough, in my opinion, is not that much better; it's still grainy, but you can see the real world true to size, unlike the Pico 4. I'm dealing with two problems with the Quest 3: the binocular overlap and the headphone audio being really low, and when it comes to porn, you know it's a big deal!

metichemsi DeoVR supports DLNA but nothing else (like SMB). DeoVR is the only player that supports alpha PT and this, at least currently, does not work over DLNA. So there is no wireless streaming option for downloaded alpha PT videos at all. What will work with DeoVR and DLNA though is the chromakey PT.

      metichemsi Seems like a lot of people make the mistake of only thinking about the hardware when buying and not giving any consideration to the software. There is zero possibility that some small Chinese company will be able to compete with the likes of Meta or Apple when it comes to the software.

        Vrsumo2017 whenever they get a Unity team right and it gets further down to-do list.

          I'm very pleased with it so far. I've played a couple of enhanced games including Red Matter 2 and the improvement over the Quest 2 is significant. I'm keeping my PSVR2 for No Man's Sky and Gran Turismo 7 and the forlorn hope that Sony will release some more big titles one day but I expect to use the Quest 3 a lot more. I've watched a few adult videos on it and it handles 5K very nicely. Perhaps it's worth adding a 5K Quest 3 option to the video downloads?

          I haven't noticed any screen door effect. Then again I never saw the mura on PSVR2. My eyes might not be the sharpest! My biggest complaint is the strap is awful. If you buy a Quest 3, factor in buying an elite strap or an alternative. You won't want to use the strap provided. Also buy the 512GB version. 128GB won't be sufficient for serious users. And battery life is about 2 hours no matter what I'm doing on it.

          Vrsumo2017 What did you try so far to make DLNA work? My internet router has a built-in DLNA server which seems to be pretty decent but since it can only handle NTFS I am not using it. The software that I am using now was easy to set up and works fine with DeoVR (except that I usually have to restart it when I am using it every once in a while).

              SchnuppiLilac just like a file sharing folder on my computer, I'd put sum videos in there but only a few would show, so say I put 20 videos maybe like 5 would only show sometimes not even show up at all, so I just gave up on it, plus I didn't like moving my files around 🤷‍♂️

              With skyboxvr it's simple, I just log into my computer and go to my folders where all my files at.

              Hope deo gets that soon tho. I saw they were going to in some thread they mentioned it. 🤷‍♂️

                metichemsi For file streaming through wi-fi I've used Plex for years. Plex is a free DNLA app that allows you to list your video file folders as you wish. When set up just go to DEO on your headset and open local files, click on DNLA and plex will show up on your headset with all your sorted files ready to stream from your desktop computer to your headset. A small learning curve to set up but worth it once finished.

                    SchnuppiLilac Got it, makes sense, well i'll keep using airlink until there is a wireless method that supports all PT on the headset. I'm sure in time it will be widely supported.

                      nfrosty53 Apologies, I should have also included that I was hoping for full PT support. I think other members have stated that nothing wireless right now supports full PT at the moment. For now Airlink seems to be working just fine as well. I have a decent mesh network at home and I have had zero issues streaming full 8K scenes with airlink. Once a wireless process fully supports PT I will follow suit.

                        Vrsumo2017 I'm using Plex Media Server as my DLNA. It's free and it does work on DEOVR. I'm also able to use it with the PT feature.

                            Going back and forth between my quest 2 and 3 in 8k videos there is a big difference in fov especially vertically. Also edge to edge clarity is much improved. PT porn is now on another level and the color passthrough is really as many have said a game changer.

                            lol have to giggle when we are on a porn forum and some people (only a few) review a vr headset based on how the games they play on it look lol

                            The Quest 3 is definitely much better that the Quest 2. 8K content looks incredible, the sweet spot is much larger, and the passthrough is much improved (much more detailed and now in color).

                            I can see where some people say it is not that much of an improvement. For 5K or lower videos that is kind of true, I honestly don't notice that big of a difference. BUT for the higher quality stuff, it is incredible. The larger sweet spot makes it much less fussy too.

                            It is if you plan on having sex with a hottie, pov record it and watch porn at the same time.

                            Yall seen those videos floating around? They using the q3 to watch videos while they cook, clean and do other shit.

                            While having sex with it on with the pass through

                            It'll look like this

                            Man, you know mofos gonna be using the quest 3 like that for real, I'm sure they did already.

                            I'd show that off in the slr labs, have a male model wear it for few minutes while fucking a hottie and have the 2d porn on. 👍
