SLR on Heresphere No VPN:
Test 1: Speed test id : 272661 : Ping 136, 52mbps, 76mbps
Test 2 : Speed test id : 272662 : Ping 249, 53mbps, 52mbps
Both were connected to CDN Beauharnois-1, CA

... The API button in Heresphere still does nothing, not sure what politics are involved here cause pretty sure the Dev for Heresphere has tried to get it working
It remains a big mystery why the speedtest results in DeoVR are (and always have been) so much lower than when doing the speedtest on the SLR website which uses the same CDN location. Does DeoVR intentionally cap the bandwith or are the results just inaccurate?
bboy7895 The problem with 8K 120 FPS seems to be that Q3 or Pico cannot decode them properly. These videos will also stutter when downloaded and played locally, so not a bandwidth/speed issue. I understand there are currently only eight 8K 120 FPS videos on SLR. Older 6K 120 fps videos should play fine. Check it out:

Ugh. All pointed at multiple servers in my CDN city. Rounded average of multiple tests each.
600 Mbps 20 ms latency using wired connection.
200 Mbps 30 ms latency using wifi.
200 Mbps 30 ms latency using Quest 3 wifi on speedtest.net.
100 Mbps 100 ms latency using Quest 3 wifi on SLR website.
75 Mbps 200 ms latency using Quest 3 wifi on DeoVR.
For shits, I ran some tests using 5G cellular (tower is far away so not great even on a good day).
60 Mbps 75 ms latency using cellular.
45 Mbps 100 ms latency using Quest 3 cellular on speedtest.net.
35 Mbps 400 ms latency using Quest 3 cellular on SLR website.
5 Mbps 700 ms latency using Quest 3 cellular on DeoVR.
I think you can see a trend or two there.
EDIT: I also tried out PCVR using the Link cable with my Quest 3
120 Mbps 140 ms latency using Quest 3 PCVR on DeoVR.

SchnuppiLilac im not talking about 8k 120 fps, but 6k 120 fps. I have no problem streaming 6k@120fps on pcvr, but on standalone, the video just stutter like crazy. I already did the speedtest on deovr standalone, and it maxed out at 40 mbps. There's something wrong with deovr standalone app.
Are you guys able to stream 6k@120 fps on standalone vr?
bboy7895 The speedtest results I get in DeoVR/Q3 are not really better than yours (sometimes 37, sometimes 47 Mbps) but I don't see any stuttering when streaming 6K 120 fps. What doesn't work for 120 fps or 90 fps is AI PT (masks are out of sync) but this is not a streaming speed issue.

SchnuppiLilac Thats weird, its def not a headset issue, because it happen on my quest 2/quest 3/pico4/pico 4 ultra. I honestly just dled all of my fav 120 fps videos and watching it through dlna, so I dont get any stutter while watching it on standalone.
Recently, I started using deovr on pcvr again and man, the 120 fps videos looks way smoother which makes it even more immersive, imo.
AlexSLR Good Morning Sir 
,
These speedtest results I'm seeing... why is no one able to get any where near their full bandwidth speeds with these CDNs? Lots of 30-50mbps... is there some kind of throttling by the CDNs?
renstimpy11 Will check the issue on our end 
85 ms / 39.7 mbps / 12 mbps
i don't have fiber, only a VDSL 50 mbps

jnicoraxxx That's the lowest Ping I've seen... what's your location? If you don't mind 
... and no VPN?
AlexSLR Interesting... just did a test on my Samsung S23. SLR website on Firefox browser... got Ping 152, 131mbps, 119mbps. Speed test ID : 272946
I get 300-350 on Speedtest.net no matter the server on my S23.
CDN performance seems to be lacking on the Q3 via DeoVR for some reason...
The last couple of nights my connection just stops and will load for 10 secs then play 5 secs over and over again.
I had to stop and watch downloaded videos with HS. DEO just craps out after a little bit of time.
My connection is super fast with anything else

Recalled that a couple of years back when I was new there was a similar discussion in the forum and I wrote about it to support, and the response basically was that there is a bandwidth cap on streaming servers while there is no cap for downloads from the website, which would explain the different speed test results in DeoVR and on the SLR website.
I think there is nothing wrong with capping streaming speeds at 50 Mbps, because why would you need more? Bitrate of streamed videos is capped at 30 Mbps, and PT masks and scripts won't add much. And at least for me, SLR streaming performance at max. resolutions was always perfectly fine, with no constant buffering when skimming through scenes like in the SLR hub or elsewhere. The only thing bothering me is the spinning dots (when they occur on a massive scale) but not video streaming performance as such.

I have SO many questions about settings and so forth. I’ll just start with this. I ran Speedtest and results were
406.38 down
117.52 up
8 ping
I’m trying out 120fps and it’s super laggy but it seems to be amazing when it works especially running on old videos that work with 120fps.
I have a quest 3 standalone and can’t use a PC. What are the ideal graphic settings? And yes I’ve tried searching this forum and couldn’t find or perhaps couldn’t understand because I’m not super tech savvy. Oh and using DEOvr. Thank you!
Danronald Most 120 fps videos on SLR are max. 6K and should (theoretically) stream and play fine with your set-up and internet speed. I am saying this because my internet speed is about half of yours and I am not having any issues. Only the latest ones which are 8K (I think less than a dozen) should play choppy on Q3 but this cannot be fixed.
What are your results of the speedtest in DeoVR?
Danronald Download a video to the headset using the web browser, then check if it plays fine in DeoVR.
Hairsational I did and it doesn’t have Passthrough or scene tags. It does play well though.
