  • Enable WebXR on Apple Vision Pro to watch SexLikeReal

mrdiscreet918 It's easy, open the videos at sexlikereal.com (on your pc), sort by newest and then just open a bunch of them in a new tab. Then check the ID (that number at the end of the URL).

You can also check in the headset, by snapping on a video without releasing your fingers, just keep them 'snapped', then it shows the URL too.

To play downloaded videos I use 'moonplayer' https://apps.apple.com/us/app/moon-player-youtube-spatial/id6475702609

Before owning the quest 3 and the AVP, I used to download files to my PC and stream them via a windows share. You can't do that on the AVP it seems BUT you can stream it via DLNA. I tried a few servers including the one that's baked into windows but the only one that worked problem free is "Serviio". It's easy to setup and then you can just select the directory that you want to share and then you can just stream it to your AVP. Works like a charm and the quality is suburb. So no need to save them to your AVP since device storage of course is quite limited on the headset itself.

The only downside with moonplayer is that there's no support for passthrough. We'll need to wait till DeoVR gets their app going I guess.

      BTW when playing directly from the Web, if you turn the contrast a litte bit up, it already looks way better. But still, hard to get it perfect, honestly I don't think it's just a matter of tuning the colors, I believe that color information is just missing. I think it just doesnt render all the info that is available.

      And then there's the frame rate issue, everything just doesnt feel very smooth. Especially if you compare to a video you play via the web and then download it and play it with moonplayer, it's still a huge difference in quality.

      harigeharry

      can you teach me how to do this step by step..please make it elementary cause it seems i cant make it work on my own.

      i downloaded serviio, i went to library added the folders i wanted to share "example F: drive VR" its been added, i clicked save. i then turned on my avp, and now INSIDE my avp i go to moonplayer, i go to DLNA but nothing shows there? i keep hitting the refresh button but nothing seems discoverable there.

      idk what to do, how can i fix this or is there another method to stream my pc files to avp?

          harigeharry With Moonplayer are you having an issue where the movie controls don't disappear? They're in the way lol

          When I try to move them to the side at least, the audio follows, so now the person is in front of me but her voice is coming from the side. Am I just missing a button somewhere? (sorry, I know you're not tech support for Moonplayer, just thought if it's a quick fix you might know!)

              mrdiscreet918
              KEEP THE MOVIE CONTROLS EXACTLY INFRONT OF YOU CENTER

              then after that touch your middle finger to thumb = this is the moonplayer command for the controls to appear/reappear

              pointing finger to thumb is for everything else like dragging, touching play button an everything else.

              now you know for the rest of you life what to do, okaye? got it? good! lol

                  ssj3vegett0 Haha yeah had to google that myself when I started using moonplayer, not exactly intuitive LOL but then again, once you know it it's actually a nice solution. They should probably just show some help tip to first time users when the user hasnt made that gesture yet.

                    ssj3vegett0 If you open Serviio, then go to 'status' and then scroll down, it shows "Running" as status? If not you can start the server that way, via that button there at the bottom. The rest of the steps you performed seem good indeed. Obviously make sure everything is connected to the same network. I had problems to get it going with other players but with Serviio it worked pretty much out of the box without problems.

                    Also supposedly you can use the windows network sharing too, adding it via 'files' but yesterday spent a good while to get that going too, but failed. Just could not have my AVP connect to my windows share.

                        BTW I just tried AGAIN to get windows network sharing going and this time it actually worked! All I did different from last time is reboot the PC and now it actually worked! So in 'files' I went to the 3 dots to add the server, then just put in the IP of my windows server (192.168.xxx.xxx, so I used the IP instead of computer name, also no "SMB://" in front or whatever, really just only the IP) and then it asked for username/password. As username I just took my admin username (if you open C:\windows\users you will then see a directory with that username) and my windows password and it worked! But again, as Serviio works really well for me already I guess it doesnt add much, though the nice thing is that I can now also use other players that dont work with DLNA.

                        Of course you need to have configured your windows share and setup your windows correctly, which is a pain in itself but oh well, had that done a long time ago.

                        So this is a workaround until they can get the SLR player working of course at full quality

                        harigeharry
                        neh it just wont work, its shows running in serviio, i only have one wifi network, everything is connected to it which includes my avp an pc, but avp will not show it, and again moonplayer will not discover it.

                            ssj3vegett0 Too bad to hear. You could try some other DLNA servers, like the one baked into windows. Each server will get their own entry into DLNA so they wont conflict. And then there are some others you can find on google.

                                harigeharry

                                tried 3 so far. Plex, serviio, an moonplayer came out with its own called moonlink

                                NONE will work for me, nothing populates in the moonplayer media server column where i like to see my VR files from pc to display in avp via moonplayer. everything is on the same wifi network , pc or avp work fine by themselves on wifi, but i cant get them to see one another.

                                    ssj3vegett0 Well if you're up to it, you could try to get a windows file share going. I got it working now. But it's an even more difficult process. If you want to try, I recommend to try to set it up and then first try from another PC if it works. And if so, then try to set it up on your AVP.

                                      Kieshi Any updates on progress for video conversions? I know you said anything above 42998 (although I'm certain I found a couple above that didn't work, at least not at resolutions higher than 1920).

                                      What's the process for earlier videos? Are you starting at the lowest numbers and going up, or working down from 42998?

                                          @Kieshi Also would love to hear how you guys are doing regarding fixing the quality issue's, thanks!

                                            mrdiscreet918 hey, could you please let ne know which video ID you tried and it did not work with higher res?

                                            Conversion is in progress, but as I mentioned before it will take time due to the amount of videos and their size.

                                                harigeharry hi, team is looking into possible improvements and we are keeping eye on the Apple updates, which would immensely help us with development.
                                                As of now, I unfortunately don't have any specific news, but I will get back to you as soon as I have some 🙂

                                                    Kieshi Ok thanks for the update my friend. Hopefully Apple will release some useful updates.

                                                      I still find this broken in so many ways. It’s like yeah we got higher resolution but all the same bugs and issues remain:
                                                      1 you can’t play without muting the volume
                                                      2 the controls you need such as settings and the XR mode buttons are on the bottom right of the screen right where the resize app hot zone is so actually selecting them is near impossible
                                                      3 the color space is still wrong

                                                      Curious about thoughts on this. I don’t have an answer but after jumping through the hoops to get a video playing once I start doing my business the ui keeps popping in and out

                                                      Jjhooke69 DeoVR originally said "We estimate the DeoVR app will be coming to the Vision Pro app store in March 2024" but the latest from them is "A fully functional DeoVR app is expected to be available on the Apple Vision Pro in May 2024".

                                                          Does anyone else have the problem where videos just refuse to play no matter what you do? not the mute problem that’s different.

                                                            Agathorn strangely when this happens if I switch to mobile mode in safari then the video will play but then the option to go into webxr mode isn’t available

                                                              Hairsational Yeah let's hope they can get it going. The AVP is just such a good headset, it really needs DeoVR 🙂

                                                                Hi fellow AVP users!!

                                                                I haven't been following the progress (or lack of progress) here in a while. I've really just been so busy fapping with my AVP. Currently I still think Moon Player is the best player. FYI devs, personally, I will never be interested in using Safari for streaming anything. I think the efforts to make the so-called hub work are misguided. I have a massive NAS server with a good (but nothing spectacular) home network, and I download the "original" highest bit rate version of each SLR video to my NAS server. I can then stream these to the AVP from the NAS using the SMB protocol.

                                                                With Moon Player, you need to first use the built-in Files app to establish a connection to your server. The URL is like this

                                                                smb://<my-server-ip>/

                                                                where <my-server-ip> is the internal IP address of your NAS server. You can also use the short computer network name if you append ".local" to the network name. The IP address is typically more reliable. Once the Files app has the connection, you can then open Moon Player and locate the network share in the expected location in the left hand panel.

                                                                A note about the server connections created in the Files app on the AVP. I'm seeing a bug where after any VisionOS update, my connections stop working. I've been able to get them working again without too much hassle just by restarting the AVP.

                                                                Okay, so recently the Play'a app got a working version for AVP (it's a free install). It's not great, and I'm still using the Moon Player. There's many flaws that will have to be fixed for me to use Play'a over the solution described above. For one thing, the vrbangers.com site address is blocked in the Play'a app, ikr? But vrconk.com and other swearl sites that use Play'a are working, sort of. You cannot currently stream 8K without constant buffering. It seems to me that the Play'a devs have ported their home rolled net code and it buffers constantly.

                                                                Play'a even buffers if you are streaming a file from your local NAS server. Since I have Moon Player, I know that streaming from my NAS should work fine. It's definitely a defect in the Play'a app. The best you can do right now with Play'a is play back files that you've copied or downloaded to the AVP. Even in this respect, I prefer the Moon Player. The Play'a app can only access it's own internal app folder, whereas the Moon Player can access the common Downloads folder. Thus, in order to play back a file I've copied to the AVP myself, I have to copy the files into the special Play'a app folder. It's not the end of the world, but it's another thing you have to know and understand about Play'a.

                                                                TLDR; fuck all this shit, download the big-ass "original" files, and fap yourself silly using Moon Player.

                                                                  GfLm unfortunately downloads are less of an option every day as sites like slr restrict them

                                                                  Also moon can’t do interactive.
                                                                  I’m hoping heresphere makes a Vision Pro version

                                                                    GfLm Just curious: Now that that you have found a working solution for yourself, does VR porn look better on AVP compared to whatever headset you were using before? And if so, how much better?

                                                                    • GfLm replied to this.

                                                                        Was literally gonna ask the same thing @SchnuppiLilac 😆

                                                                        Not launched in the UK yet but it's on the list, hopefully before the end of 2024

                                                                        If the screen is a lot better than Pico 4 or similar then i'll get one even if only for porn

                                                                        It's definitely quite a bit better than anything else out there. HOWEVER the biggest downside right now is that there's no passthrough mode. I really love PT on my Quest 3. So I still use both for porn. So I guess until there's a PT mode player out there on the AVP, I guess you're still fine with the Quest 3. But if the first apps appear with PT mode, then the AVP easily would win.

                                                                          SchnuppiLilac Hmm good thinking, just tried it but unfortunately didn't work neither. When I enable the passthrough mode and use 'from video' then it just makes everything black except for the model. It doesnt mix in reality, like it does when you do the same on the quest 3 ...

                                                                            No, nobody has PT because it isn't possible. Apple in their infinite wisdom made an MR platform and did not give developers any access to the camera feed. I don't mean "by default" I mean there is no way to get it, the user can not enable any permission to allow an app to access the camera feed. Thus it is IMPOSSIBLE right now to make any app that uses the camera image, such as a passthrough video player or anything else.

                                                                            The only possible way this could work is if you can make the video itself simply have transparent parts and let the platform do the rest but I don't think that is doable either.

                                                                            In the larger picture, as a developer that had a lot of ideas I wanted to try with this thing outside of porn, I REALLY hope Apple realizes how stupid this is. I know they did it for privacy but at least let the user choose to make that available to an app with permissions if they want to.

                                                                              Agathorn But that can't be true. Tons of apps use MR with camera feed, like the game fruit ninja where fruit and ninjas appear in your own living room.

                                                                                  harigeharry They appear in the room sure but the app itself never sees the camera image. All they get is the structure of the room, which is essentially planes that show where walls, floors, and objects are. But they never see the image. that is all handled by the platform for them.

                                                                                    I understood on AVP the concept is that an app can add something to (augment) the camera feed but cannot add the camera feed to whatever is happening within the app and that's why the background in Play'a remains black in PT mode.

                                                                                      SchnuppiLilac Exactly. The only way it MIGHT currently work would be if you could play a video that had transparency on it, but to do that you would ALSO have to not be a full screen app like they currently do. It would need to be a MR app like how Apple handles the spatial photos/videos or panoramic photos where they don't fill the view but are overlaid on top. That might work but I don't know if there is any video format Apple supports that has transparency information in it, and I have to assume that the devs already tried this since it's the most logical work around.
