Quest 3 Settings for Downloaded Passthrough Videos

literaldragon

I'm new to this and have had trouble finding the proper settings to watch PT vids after downloading them from SLR. I download the large 8K version and select the file from the DeoVR app on my Quest 3. While a regular video, one with a full environment, works great my issue is with the SLR originals. These have a blue/grey environment and without PT activated it's not a great experience. I've attempted making adjustments and anything that removes the environment also removes the model. Is there a way to watch these from a download rather than always having to be connected to the internet and watching from the SLR website within the DeoVR app? Thanks everyone for your help!!

Well while I was writing this post I was also downloading the original file for a video. While it was over 35GB it played perfectly after uploading it to my movie folder and playing it in the DeoVR app. So I guess I'll have to use the incredibly large files when I want to use a downloaded video, otherwise it's all about streaming from the site or watching a smaller file that doesn't use PT.

Hey @literaldragon, as you have noticed, the full size video files are the ones that include PT as well, smaller ones don't.

For the PT settings, I would recommend checking this post out. It goes through the basics of PT but also provides some tips and suggestions on how to set it up best.

VelvetEcho Thank you. I had success when I made my last post, but the 30-40GB files are no longer playing in PT mode and the grey room is visible again. I've had some success trying to cancel that color out, but it's less than perfect and is a little odd when I'm able to see the room through the model's eyes.
