did this a year ago with the Pico4, works there as well ruclips.net/video/UXy3R9vTHuk/видео.html you use your switch without dock... isnt it limited to 720p when using it without dock?
I have been using it for a while and love it! [:]~))
couldn't care less about Quest games, i use Quest3 for PCVR, which looks about 100x times better than any quest3 game, even with any kind of "optimizer". with additional battery pack (which like you say, is pretty much needed) using this optimizer is more like a cost of 100+ euro btw.
How did you calculated this price?🤯 Anker wants $20 for 36Wh/10 000 mAh power bank and ofc. there are cheaper options from different brands. BTW. Many games doesn't have PCVR version.
the more successful games do have a PCVR version, but sure. Yes or free, put it into the power outlet via usb.. that wasn't my point, the idea is kind of lost, you no longer have a wireless device, your own words in the video was also you pointed to one of those built in battery packs. it's likely what you'd want to use. they can be pretty expensive.
Which grips do you prefer- those, or the long ones from Globular Cluster? /Simplex
Globular Cluster are good as second pair for some games, but Kiwis are more versatile and do not have quality issues. If regular controllers are not too small for you, they are a very good choice. I prefer using the Globular Cluster especially in games where I don't need to use the trigger button at all (though there are even better dedicated controllers for games like Beat Saber or Eleven Table Tennis, but they are different for every title). However, since I really don't like using GC while holding a pistol with both hands, they cannot be my only grips.
Thanks for this video. QGO is great, I wish I bought it sooner. However one small nitpick - in Europe you have to add VAT to the price, so it costs a bit more than 10$. But still worth it! :) /SImplex
All the videos comparisons are taken from different positions.All the ones that are for the optimiser are closer to the world. So you will see more detail in VR like this. However I am not saying this defo isnt good. Also I did notice a big fps difference too. Like by a lot.
Yes, thanks to Quest Optimizer you can have more fps in game, however Quest hasn't power to record it. And ofc. having gameplay in native low resolution and higher with QGO, the only way to show similar improvement like in headset is to zoom in - even now video doesn't show how big difference there is, but at least a little bit better than recording in two different resolutions and later scaling it to the lower one.
@@Thomas_Voland Ok thanks for that info.
Are you ising the pro version of the app? Mone has boarders
@@mariobruh.1free version
Just an FYI that the Quest3 v66 update broke a lot of things with third party apps and how (i.e. "if") they can display video. Can anyone confirm this is working on a v66+ Quest3? From v66 on, you just get black screens in the part of the window where video would have been displayed.

Has he never heard of virtual desktop?
Have you never heard that Virtual Desktop needs operating system with a streamer app?
5:50 - right next to the resolution percentage, what are those 2 icons? A landscape-type rectangle and then a square. What are they and what do they do?
@@The_Spartan_Legend you can render square image or more wide
@@Thomas_Voland And what is the difference between the two in terms of both performance and quality?
@@The_Spartan_Legend Here is developer's explanation: "If I remember Qwake needs square res for example. It can also save more resources without seeing visual distortion due to the square instead of rectangle. I almost never used this but was requested by users"
If you connected to a bluray player, can you play 3D discs on your Quest?
No, this is to use Quest as 2D screen
Hi, what face interface did you use? It seems small look nice.
I am not using any facial interface on this video.
Great video. What is the USB camera app? I can't seem to find it anywhere but got curious as you seem to be a heavy user.
It's to watch legally any VOD in good quality, play on consoles, connect any HDMI device. I have already videos about all of that: 1. ruclips.net/video/t2Wjy35Iaa8/видео.htmlsi=rWb1OF2d-gXEL9UC 2. ruclips.net/video/I6AWoC1IXzw/видео.htmlsi=Eipizxr7XTged2q4 3. ruclips.net/video/Gez65bhp-Xo/видео.htmlsi=8cmpaXzRBRH4eZWV
What the ms latency
I don't known, I don't have hardware to measure it. But as long as I can watch movies without lipsync issues and I can play games, for me it's good enough.
Amazing Chanel brother, got yourself a new subscriber 👍
Thank you!
can you play VR games?

Very interesting, thanks!
Got me a ugreen adapter hdmi to isb adapter but the screen stays black... Any idea what the cause could be? Plugging in a pc hdmi output into the ugreen adapter does work. I got a brand new fire tv stick 4k max if that matters. Does the Capturecard need to support HDCP? Because ic couldnt find one that states that it does support it
If it really is HDMI to USB adapter then it can't work, you need capture card. What is it?
@@Thomas_Volandit's the "UGREEN Video Capture Card, 4K HDMI auf USB C/A Capture Card, 1080P Video Grabber für Gaming, Rekorder, Livestreaming, kompatibel mit Switch PS5 PS4 Xbox TV Stick Camera Laptop iPad Mac Handy" Can't post the link as the comment gets deleted if I do... It should be a capture card. And it shows a white fire tv logo shortly at the beginning then goes black, that's why I think it could be DRM related. Got me a second one by another company by now with the same effect.
you have to try default res, 120 fps, dynamic cpu, dynamic gpu, and high fov. its so smooth playing contractors
A high FOV is a huge tradeoff, but maybe I will try it.
Is it worth to pay extra for Bobovr S3 Pro?
Alternative for this strap is not S3 Pro but M3 Mini with battery addon. S3 Pro is Halo, not Elite. It depends if you need Elite or Halo. I will make tutorial about it soon.
@@Thomas_Voland Thanks. I have read that M3 is not great and that Halo is not so good for dynamic games but I don't know if it's for beat saber dynamic or gorn like.
@@mateuszkaflowski3827 M3 Pro and M3 Mini are totally different head straps
@@Thomas_Voland Yes. But do you recommend S3 Pro for dynamic gaming? I was considering regular Kiwi or K4 becouse of price but I saw your post on reddit that counterweight is very important (and I agrre for my current Quest 1 where I put regular powerbank on rubbers)
@@mateuszkaflowski3827 I can use S3 Pro for anything. For people who like halo straps it's usually the most comfortable model. I will try to publish review of S3 in one week but for sure it's great strap, but expensive. However they have great deal for Prime day: amzn.to/4cGMlXK
Cool.
Totally agree ! QGO is the best VR investment I've ever made because without it, everything is just visual mush. We can buy lots of various accessories, if we don't have QGO, we've missed our virtual "life" lol
Quality of Quest displays are perfectly fine for 4K. In fact certain vr180 'videos' look best at 6K, and even 8K. 4K videos aren't as crisp when comparing them in the headset.
@@michaelbinbc i thought that question was about normal videos, not 180°.
@@Thomas_Voland does it matter?
@@michaelbinbc 🤯 yes, a lot.
@@Thomas_Volandlol... vr180 4K has a higher bitrate than a pancake 4K video, and so does 6K and 8K. But hey... compare 1080p vs 4K videos in the RUclips app. Tell me you don't see a difference. Heck... RUclips app on Quest 3 now has 8K playback.
@@michaelbinbc Why are you still talking about 180°🤔Displays in Quest are 2K, not 4K.
I know it is crazy!!! Made a few videos on it, might make more!! Great video!!! Very slept on.
Thanks for the video
I tired to get this to work but when I click on devices to allow hagbis to always use usb camera it seems to not same my setting. Can’t get the video of my switch to show. Anyone else have this problem?
Actually got it to work. Had to supply power to the USB HDMI capture card and to the HDMI cable to the switch. Video showed up immediately. So rule of thumb is to provide power to the usb capture card as well as plug the power into the card once card is already on the quest 2/3.
@@markm7130 yes I explained this in the video - first card to the Quest and power to the HDMI capture card after that.
@@Thomas_Voland yes after seeing the video again I finally caught your note about it. Thanks for your video. Great instructions! Just idiots like me who missed a step. Got to excited. Going to try this with my Steam Deck later.
Thanks for the review Imo it would also be interesting to take a look at the internal battery (some videos do this for these battery straps). After all these batteries are strapped right to people heads. AFAIK Kiwi used a pretty good powerbank for the quest 2 with decent safty features, other brands use very cheap battery packs. Pretty important as well imo.
Can you sideload Cinemahd and hook it up to Real Debrid for 4k on the Quest?
You can use Debrid on sideloaded app, however the Quest only has a resolution of half that of 4K screens, so the quality won't be anything like 4K.
@@Thomas_Voland Oh ok. So 1440p would be the best you can get then Still, that's pretty good when the lenses are so close to you. Small lenses/screens means higher pixel density right?
How is the capture card latency?
I don't have equipment to measure it, but I can't notice it when watch movies or play games.
Great content! I'll probably buy one👍
Will this not make the Quest somewhat unstable? I don't know, but alot of my games seems to stutter here and there already, even without turning up the graphics. It struggles even more with AR games.
@@Lupain the one of reasons to use it, is to avoid stutters.
@@Thomas_Voland Oh that would be amazing. I must try it out, thanks for the respond and the video!
How is it that QGO is able to do this and not natively? Is it because of Meta's optimizations?
@@draklane it is explained in the video. If they let developers to use higher cpu and gpu levels, battery would be drained to fast without battery strap, and keeping compatibility with Quest 2 would be harder than it’s now.
Do you need a pc to use this?
@@KingEnvy9845 No
I'm having issues with the ADB. QGO gives several options to activate it. I had it working for a few minutes, but next time I tried it again, it couldn't turn ADB on. I don't know how much time I have waisted on it, but I'm giving up. In any case, I'm ok with the graphics the way they are, don't need to optimize them.
I don't have this problem, I play PC games on my Quest 3 almost exclusively.
mmm i love paying for the thing already have to make use it's full potential this should be free
Can I use it to optimize video quality for watching movies.
@@jonvano8272 No
I use this all the time for watching movies and tv shows. It doesn't affect my battery as much as gaming, and the quality increase is worth it.
It doesn't affect movies and tv shows quality, but maybe you are talking about virtual environment around it 🤔
I hate the framerate with this app enabled. It's always choppy..
It's not. Only when new version OS from Meta was release, there was a problem (explained in notification in the app). In other cases it should be fine. On which game you had frame drops? Did you check in stats what was the reason?
A quest 3 with a display port is what I want 😂
Is there an option for overclocking standalone games? Is there a way to pick up some extra frames?
No
