Unable to remote start video while on homepage / in menus.

Hi,
I'm unable to remote start video playback while on the DeoVR homepage / in menus.
If i just pick a random video on the hmd I am able to control it again.

Is there any workaround for this? Would like to play a video without any user input.

Thanks!

Remote control only works in player mode, not the in browsing mode.

philpw99 Any way to skip browsing mode and go straight to player mode when the app launches?

give deovr.exe a dummy mp4 as parameter, like:
c:\program files(x86)\steam\...\deovr.exe dummy.mp4

philpw99 Thanks a bunch for trying to help!
There's one small issue with this approach though... I failed to mention that I'm running DeoVR on a Quest 2 😅
