What's wrong with deovr?

Deovr updated is expected early this week

[deleted] Hello! I saw you have released a new DeoVR version today. Could you possibly let us know if it includes the fix for the issue we are experiencing? Thank you!

Ryosuke1976 Hey, the team advised installing the latest version and testing if the issue is still present. Again, the team couldn't get to the main cause of these performance degradations but they performed some changes to the code hoping that will resolve the issue you are experiencing.

Please do let us know if the issue is still there though!

the newest update didn't help. BUT I found something out when I was testing. And it solved the problem for me. It isn't a perfect solution, but it helps for me. To be honest, I found out about this by accident.
I tested it again and again and was able to reproduce the issue again and solve it again.

well, I know this was very frustrating for all of us, but try this:
I took out the battery of one move controller (oculus rift S), because I had to change the battery, I noticed the App runs smoothly, and that fixed the issue pretty much immediately. I didn't even have to restart DeoVR. plugging in the battery for both controllers causes the issue again after 2-3 min playback, then I took one battery out, voila, everything works fine again. controller with inactive mode or sleeping mode doesn't help, I HAD to take out the battery on one controller.
I hope this hint helps you and of course the developers to fix this permanently.

Hi,
I just wanted to add my name to the list of people who are currently disappointed by not being able to use Deo VR at the moment. Nothing mentioned above has helped so far. Using an HP Reverb G2.

Damankogel38 Hey, we've passed this to the devs! What we know so far is that Oculus performed some small changes in their SDK which the team wasn't aware of and they thought it was about the input system but your post can potentially help narrow this down!

ThorOfAsgard As I previously mentioned, we are unable to provide the previous version of the DeoVR app as we can't guarantee stability and that other updates the team implemented in the player would work. I mentioned above on the controller post that this issue was caused by the SDK changes that the team can't fully understand what they were and they implemented some changes with the DeoVR app 13.15 which they thought it would resolve this but it still hasn't so they continued to work on this. I also have to mention that there are a lot of users who are contributing in finding a solution to this and we are very grateful for that as this helps developers a lot, so I would once again ask if you can provide us with any logs from your end other than a spec of a PC that you're using, that would really be amazing.

Thank you for your feedback guys!
We are working on the issue, but it is not reproducing on most of our headsets/PCs with similar graphics cards, which makes the issue even more annoying.

@ThorOfAsgard are you using SteamVR or Oculus Store version of the app?
Is it the same in both apps?

@RD3ZEN nice workaround, but for us rollback is not an option.

Also if you are using Quest headset over Link or Rift with SteamVR please make sure OpenXR runtime is set to Meta Quest both in Oculus Home app and SteamVR settings.

Hey guys. To gather a bit more structured information could you please answer the following questions?
This would help us dig deeper.

• Graphics card, driver version
• CPU
• Windows version
• Headset
• Runtime (Oculus Home, SteamVR)
• Connection type (Oculus Link, Air Link, direct connection (in case of Rift or WMR))

Oculus Store

• Version of Oculus Home
• Oculus DeoVR version
• Which OpenXR runtime in Oculus Home (Settings -> General -> OpenXR Runtime). Must be Meta Quest Link.

Steam Store

• Steam DeoVR version

• For Quest Link, Air Link, Rift, Rift S: SteamVR "Current OpenXR runtime" must be set to Oculus

• For WMR: SteamVR "Current OpenXR runtime" must be set to SteamVR

• Add a screenshot of windows Task Manager when the problem occurs, especially GPU section.

• When it happens?
  a. When you start the app
  b. When you start the app and start watching videos
  c. When you start the app and browse videos
  d. When you start the app, take headset off then back on

Although the latest Deovr update is not available at my Steam, the performance today was back to normal.

Cheered too soon, it is crap again.

@iddqd @[deleted] Hi! Was the info I sent you helpful?

Ryosuke1976 Hey, this has been passed to the team and they are looking into it! Appreciate the insights!
