so i am using the wired alvr on my quest2 but yesterday the bitrate was avg 260mbps and it was good enough but today after the new update my bitrate is now avg 20-70 mbps also my cable speed should be like 2.7gb its a usb 3.0 cable i tested it in blade and sorcery and idk why i need to lower my graphics settings for it to run smoothly but now i cant even run it
SPECS:
gpu:rtx 3060ti
cpu:i5 13600 KF
ram:32gb ddr4
installiation method : windows streamer.zip

what is the problem? it defaults to variable bit rate
after you update settings get reset
restore your settings if you want same as before
tropic hazel
bro its now 15
worn fern
it uses variable bitrate - it will change all the time

i mean u should ignore this
worn fern
so change your settings lol
make sure your versions match as well, the headset just got a new version
so you may need to update the windows side
just use alvr launcher and grab latest
tropic hazel
bro u dont understand what i mean
worn fern
noone uses 2.7 gigabit of bitrate so just ignore that
worn fern
the headset can only take 200mbit of h265 so yeah
tropic hazel
okay
worn fern
if u use h264 it can take more
200mbit h264 is very low quality
200mbit h265 is very high quality
huge difference
tropic hazel
i use h264 and i have 100mbps in steam vr home and when i launch blade and sorcery it becomes 30-80 mbps and in battle talent the latency becomes rlly high although i always played it at like 6ms and the bitrate becomes 15mbps before the update it was stable at 250mpbs in h264
do u understand what i mean now>
worn fern
no this means nothing

the bitrate fluctuates depending on entropy in the scene
if you just have a loading screen for example there is little entropy so low bitrate
entropy is low when nothing is changing on the screen
entropy is high when things are "busy" and pixels are changing a lot

bro i mean ingame yesterday at the same scene it was 250 mpbs and the game is smooth
but
worn fern
check that the game is running at proper fps
check all usual stuff
other programs like overlays can interfere
tropic hazel
i checked all the stuff
worn fern
check that your headset has autoupdated
tropic hazel
bro i checked all of the thing even my drivers
and its all the same as before the update
but idk why
the bitrate in the same scene with the same apps and all the things is lower than yesterday like before the update the bitrate in the same scene was 250mpbs and the latency was 6ms
after the update it's 15mpbs and the latency is 42ms
worn fern
well roll back the update then
you can pick any version you want
its likely you just reset your settings and this is nothing to do with update
all you need to do is clickd the "high" preset pretty much
you have tried rebooting already?
tropic hazel
it worked
