The new update broke XBVR integration. Doesn't show cover art anymore.

Kieshi

JohnJeffy Could you please send me a screenshot of this, so I can pas it on to the team?
Also, could you let me know which headset you are using?

JohnstonAbb

Thanks for the update to toggle the UI center!

Unfortunately I'm continuing to see issues on the Quest 3 when there are errors in DLNA. Specifically, an error will pop up (which seems fine there's probably an error on the server), but it is impossible to dismiss that error message and the app becomes unusable.

This issue started in a previous release, and I saw that it was brought up in this thread for 13.15.

Just to be clear, prior to when this bug started, errors would pop up occasionally when using DLNA, but they would be dismissible or they would automatically dismiss after a short period of time.

Thanks!

Kieshi

JohnstonAbb Hi, could you please get me a screenshot of the error which you cannot dismiss? I will check this out with the devs

not sure if the issue is a change to the deovr app or the deovr web site but it made me log back into the app for premium but now videos by default never play at highest quality and I need to every time select a higher quality if I don't want to see pixelated video

Kieshi

quidnunc You mean that if you set a quality in certain video and come back to it later, it doesn't remember what quality you chose? Or is it something else?

JohnstonAbb

Kieshi Thanks for looking into it. Here are a couple of screenshots of this behavior. The first is when selecting an inaccessible DLNA host. The second is forcing an error to happen when playing a file by closing the DLNA server first.

Kieshi no, if I play a video it will play in for example 1920p instead of 3840p. I'm not sure if it is like it is applying what it would play for non premium but it does that for every video, played or not before. I can manually change to a higher video quality but I have to do that for every video. I tried logging out and back in without a difference. I suppose I will delete the app and redownload in case it is caused by a local file and report back if that resolves it

edit: nope, fresh app download on quest3, same issue
edit: and just to be clear it is with deovr.com. not sure if the app is the issue or the web site

XBVR dev here.
This is how it looks in DeoVR 13.17 on Quest 3:

Video thumbnails are working though.

Here is an excerpt of the deovr API response from XBVR:

 "scenes": [
  {
   "name": "Recent",
   "list": [
    {
     "title": "Sultry Sexy Goddess",
     "videoLength": 540,
     "thumbnailUrl": "http://192.168.10.169:9999/img/700x/https:/cdn-vr.stasyqvr.com/images/307/1609_cover.jpg",
     "video_url": "http://192.168.10.169:9999/deovr/22866"
    },
    {

     "videoLength": 660,
     "thumbnailUrl": "http://192.168.10.169:9999/imghm/22792/https:/cdn-vr.stasyqvr.com/images/306/1604_cover.jpg",
     "video_url": "http://192.168.10.169:9999/deovr/22792"
    },

And this is the content of a video_url API resonse:

 "authorized": 1,
 "description": "Nikki Mills is not your run-of-the-mill model. This gorgeous lady has all the right curves and moves, and she's ready to make you as horny as she is. You'll get lost once you start staring at her perfectly sculpted ass. In fact, it looks so good that you may not even notice that her face is about as beautiful as it gets. Nikki is classically stunning, with blonde hair, sharp features, and a smirk that lets you know her mind is just as dirty as yours. Because Nikki is such a horny slut, she loves getting naked in front of the camera and giving you a show. Now's the time to pull your cock out and stroke it slowly. Nikki doesn't like to go too fast - she's more of a laid-back girl. Are you ready to give her what she needs?",

Here you go.

I tried installing the lastest version of XBVR and reinstalled Deo on my quest 3. It didn't resolve the problem.

Kieshi

Steam version is live 🙆

Kieshi

JohnstonAbb Thank you, I will check with the team about it

Kieshi

JohnstonAbb Just to make sure, if you click with your controller somewhere outside from this message, it doesn't dismiss ,correct?

JohnstonAbb

Kieshi That's correct, clicking outside of the message doesn't dismiss it. I've noticed some commands work, like hitting the "B" button on the controller to go back to the previous directory, but all of that happens behind the error message, which stays on the screen above everything. And I'm unable to interact with the UI by clicking on elements so the app becomes unusable.

Kieshi

quidnunc Could you please let me know what device you are using? Is this Oculus or Steam version of the app?

How it should work: if I watch it as a guest, it sets the lowest possible quality, when I log in to the account that has premium, then I change quality to the maximum possible one and it will play maximum possible one on every video I open afterwards.

boboweb

Anybody can confirm if the issues with stuttering/lagging in Steam version are finally fixed ?

Kieshi

crwxaj I will check this out for you

Thanks for the UI re-centering toggle! I would note that I'd find that feature more useful if there was a way to move the UI so it wasn't right in the center, and have that position offset be saved for future re-centering. My issue with the re-centering was that the interface was always higher than I wanted it to be whenever the UI moved and I'd have to keep readjusting it every time, not that the moving itself was bad.

Hi. Thanks for fixing the passthrough mode so that color pickers for different layers don't mess up each other. However, in the latest version you made it such that only one layer can be enabled at a time. This defeats the purpose of having three. Some videos have multiple colored surfaces that needs to be removed, wall, carpet, etc. Ideally, we should be able to pick multiple colors for all three layers and enable them in any combination.
