spanker you can watch youtube clips while in deovr looking at porn ? maybe i expressed myself wrong, spotify and deo vr at the same time ( listening to music while watching prn )
🙂

nope...you probably EXPRESSED correctly....i didn't read it too closely 🙂

so one of the actual experts will NEED to be weighing in here for you on this 🙂

option #1 (Virtual Desktop) should work just fine with DeoVR even without opening SteamVR. There's an option for that in the VD streamer app. But it might work with some GPUs only, not sure. Works with RTX4070 in Win10.
Also

  • make sure you have HEVC codec installed in Windows so that you play the H265 version of the videos in DeoVR
  • make sure your wifi is 5GHz with sufficient speed (like 600Mbps+) - Virtual Desktop is wifi only so the cable connection didn't really count
  • make sure your GPU isn't maxed out (just check in Task manager while DeoVR plays a video)

    czperv123 Thx brother, i solved it in the end , apparently meta is not allowing audio background with multiple apps. i found a guide on how to install apk on quest and allowing audio background 🙂
    i'll share the guide if someone else needs it

      garduz what you do is

      Log into your Spotify in the quest browser push play let it play, exit out of browser then get your phone and open Spotify and push play, it should play on your quest after u push play, once you got it playing you can use your phone to change music and turning the volume down on your phone it'll turn down on quest. But only the Spotify volume will turn down not the video. Incase you want the volume a Lil lower the video.

      I think the apk way u can't turn down the volume.

      Other way to watch or listen to music is while watching a video just open browser and use YouTube, sometimes i like watching/listening to
      belle delphine video

      But only thing Is listening like this is when u have a video playing on browser you cant skip threw videos or turn the volume down.

      That first method you can turn the volume down if you want.

        Vrsumo2017 WOW, i was just thinking a way to solve this volume problem and you gave me the answer o.o gonna try that. i was stuck with high volume ehehe 😃 thanks a lot

        Vrsumo2017 i've tried the solution you proposed but i'm facing horrible audio stuttering and choppiness,
        the problem seems to be meta quest browser audio when going in background to other apps :/ do you have this problem too ?

          garduz yeah it does that, it worked great on q2.

          But put on blue tooth headphones, it don't do that chopping, it plays perfectly. 👍 and you can turn volume down for Spotify on your phone so you can lower it lower then the video so it's kinda in the background instead of playing full blast, be cool if it had an eq, I'd filterd it out so it sounds like it playing in the next room.

          I only use Bluetooth head phones, it might work with wired too. Not sure tho.

          But I can confirm it works good with Bluetooth headphones.

          Edit
          Bro, you might not even need the phone for volume, I'm controlling Spotify volume on the website through oculus browser. I thinking maybe it works like that cus it connected to my phone as remote, so basically you could hit menu while watching a video and bring up the oculus browser to switch music and mess with volume. Then close it and still plays while you watching a video.

          Edit
          Bro maybe they fixed it, cuz I use YouTube, adjust YouTube volume lower then the video I'm watching and I can close the menu and still plays while watching a video. Before it didn't do that, if I closed the oculus menu the YouTube video would stop. Now it just plays in background. Maybe they updated it. 🤔

          Fuck
          Edit again
          Welp, maybe they didn't fix it cuz now the YouTube video stops after closing the menu, must of been sum kinda hack, I had Spotify open, remoted to my phone and YouTube open and YouTube would play after closing the menu, I closed everything to try again and now YouTube don't play after closing the menu, must of been sum kinda hack, ima try to do it again.

          But Spotify works good 👍

          Edit
          Gotta be a hack, I was playing Spotify and played YouTube video at same time and went back in forth from Spotify n YouTube page and eventually you get the YouTube video to keep playing, sadly my headset died of low battery soon as I gotta to work, but it's a hack.

          But I can confirm
          Logging into Spotify on oculus browser, log in play music, adjust volume, close it then open your video player with Bluetooth headphones it works good. 👍

          Edit
          Guess they did updated it 🤷‍♂️
          So YouTube keeps playing when you have an app open. Example if you have deo open, press menu and open oculus browser, go to YouTube play a video, I think u can adjust volume different from the deo video (it worked for me) press menu to close the browser, if for sum reason it turns off reopen browser and check if it opend up another page cuz it will do that sometimes, just reclick on the YouTube page press play and then close it again with menu button, should still play. 👍

          Fuck, OK last edit
          I found the hack
          In steps
          First, open oculus browser, go to YouTube pick your music. Play a video Adjust music volume

          Then while the video is playing open deo, at this point the video will turn off but press menu to open menu and open browser again and click on the YouTube page and press play and then close it by clicking menu button again, for some reason it creates another web page and that's why the video stops.

          But this works!

          Now I get play this porn music and lower the volume so it's not so loud! 🥂

            This is what ChatGPT Meta support has to say about this:

            Hey there! We know how important it is for some users to listen to their own tunes as they play, and would love to provide some information.

            Currently, listening to music while playing any game you want is not a supported feature. While some users have found ways to make it happen, because it is not a supported feature, it is subject to issues such as the stuttering you are reporting. While we do not have a solution for any unsupported workarounds at the moment, using an external audio source is the best bet. You can use something like your own headphones, and perhaps some kind of aux splitter to combine audio sources and play your games, and listen to your music from the same speakers.

            Btw, pros just wear two sets of headphones 🙂

              SchnuppiLilac Currently, listening to music while playing any game you want is not a supported feature.

              Yeah it is, I just tried it with a game and the YouTube video kept playing.

              But you gotta open the browser first before opening any app.

              Maybe they updated it recently 🤷‍♂️

              Cuz this shit wasn't working like this last time I tried. Unless I found the hack. 🤷‍♂️

              But it plays choppy with out Bluetooth headphones. With BT headphones it plays fine.
