#Only left eye for "mirror" window on PC with Oculus

There's been a problem for streamers who don't use the Oculus Mirror App in OBS, where the app view is not centered on what we see in the headset. For viewers, it seems as though I aM constantly looking down at the floor.
This is not the first time this comes up https://discord.com/channels/428667403950620679/1187179171881947156 but no response there so I post a new issue.

Not sure if is relevent but found this https://discussions.unity.com/t/unity-game-view-still-showing-only-one-eye-after-switched-to-both-eyes-mode/943958

I found the same with the pop:one desktop window but resizing it to be a squarer ratio (rather than 16:9) helped get more vertical pixels in the POV. Haven't checked oculus mirror to see if this has an effect there.

Thanks for the tip and I tried that but still very off😕 I tried a bunch of tricks but nothing seems to work. The oculus mirror app is such a dirty workaround to be able to stream. I google like crazy and it seem to be an issue with a lot of unity VR games.

I actually noticed that on my stream yesterday it was more left sided view I don’t normally tend to use oculus link but seeing as I’m unable to play on steam or revive it’s the only option at present 🤮

Anyone found a way around this yet?

its been like this since april. whatever version came out around then, changed the pop.exe app to cause this. i too have searched and cannot find a solution.

If you want to record or stream, standalone with meta quest developer hub in cinematic widescreen is the way to go. Widescreen without cropping.

#

And you can select your preferred eye, frame rate, resolution (up to 4k, which is nice for editing).

pretty sure oculus mirror fixes this but it tanks performance

Seen new jitter test on steam.. all hope is not lost 💜

dusty vault

Oh wow! It’s incredible how good it feels when stuff get fixed/move in the right direction 🔥 I will test this when I get home.

#

Hope it’s for oculus version as well

Okey so I just tried the Experimental beta for oculus. Good news first. It looks a lot more centered. Still maybe a bit tilted to the right but I would consider this good. Bad news is that I get stuck on the loading screen when launching the game "Update required"

#

I would add screenshots but it seems I'm not allowed to add it in this channel for somereason...

Or they fix it. As mentioned in the issue description and my first comment. Oculus mirror is a work around and not what I want to stream. It’s also a hit on performance. I managed to get oculus mirror to work with meta link but not virtual desktop.
Just to be clear, this use to work for years. The solution can’t be to change your set up and that performance suffers.
When installing the beta version(or whatever it’s called) of the game it is actually centered but you get stuck on the login screen. This is clearly something they can fix

I got back from the devs in the ticket I started with through the form on the website. They say "there is a current ongoing incompatibility with Virtual Desktop causing this issue."

#

I don't think that's the case at all but I guess it's easier for them to blame someone else. I've asked in the VirtualDesktop discord if they know anything about this

dusty vault
#

I asked the Virtual Desktop team today just to verify and they answered immediately(!!!). “We don't have control over how the game mirrors itself onto the desktop”

They say it’s not on their side. Which it definitely is. Virtual desktop don’t dictate how the mirror window shows up. I will double check when I get home but I’m pretty sure that it’s the exact same issue with meta link.

@warm nacelle this is still not fixed. When streaming it don’t look good

dusty vault
#

FYI, just to follow up on Virtual Desktop being blamed, I've now tested with Air Link as well and encountered the exact same issue. This confirms that the problem is controlled by the game and nothing else.

#

@dawn kayak Can you attach screenshots in this issue? I'm not allowed to do this in this channel for some reason

Interesting, 8 of the 11 live streams right now are zoomed way in and the health bars are offcenter. guess i shoudln't figure on a fix for this issue coming... ever. bummer. i guess the folks that have it centered are those on steam.

Wonder if that is new? The zoomed in thing that happened a couple years ago where it was really zoomed out. Or 8/11 streams were cheating and made their views weird? Could be an OS thing that could be resolved in the next update.
