Compare Good and Bad Pass Through on the Quest 3. (Battery Saver Glitch)

  • I managed to get my hands on a friend's Quest 3 that has Terrible pass thru video. By using a Go Pro to record the left eyepiece display on both Q3s, I've managed to put together a comparison between good and bad passthrough video.
    Meta's commercials for the Quest 3 give user's the impression that pass-through video displayed inside the headset is crystal clear. This isn't true. The headset display tends to be a little bit grainy, but of good enough quality to let you see, move around and perform tasks while wearing the Q3.
    If you think your passthrough looks a lot worse than this, you may've enabled the Quest 3 Battery Saver mode and you're now stuck in low resolution display mode. There's no fix for this yet, but Meta should be rolling out a new update in the near future. Until that happens,
    Don't Enable Battery Saver Mode.
    • Blurry Pass Through Vi...
    I recorded this video using two separate Quest 3s. One stuck in low res and the other with normal pass through. I used a go pro to record the left eyepiece display in the headset on both Q3s while panning around my well lit dinning room.
    If you're having the issue, you can report it on the Meta Community Forums.
    communityforums.atmeta.com/t5...
    Some users have reported that they're stuck in this mode without ever having turned Battery Saver on.

    The link is for a discussion of the battery saver mode. I never turned that switch on when I got mine and the pass through is horrible. No amount of factory resets or reboots helped. If you record or take a picture all is wonderful resolution. The pass through quality issue seems to be wider than just the power saving mode.

    • @ImaRainbow
      @ImaRainbow  5 месяцев назад +1

      You're correct. Users have reported being in the low resolution video mode without ever turning BS on. There's a blurb in the description about that and there's been a few comments about folks being there without turning it on. Still waiting on Meta for a fix.

    Thank you for this!!! Can you do the same test but with OVR metrics? Do you see any differences on the numbers? (E.g. resolution, fps, etc). Would be great to know that to effectively know if it is stuck or not.

      Sorry, my buddy swapped out his "bad" Q3 for a good one. His pass through looks like mine now. Wish I thought of that at the time, that might've given us some more information.

    @mateuszbugaj799 4 месяца назад

    Since some people have "good" versions and some people have "bad" versions doesn't this means that it is hardware related? I'm assuming that each device has the same software running. Isn't that a valid reason to request a different device from Meta?

    • @ImaRainbow
      @ImaRainbow  4 месяца назад

      The exact cause still hasn't been identified by Meta. Speculation does include different camera manufacturers providing slighty different hardware.
      All Q3 are still under warranty, so if yours is "bad", I'd suggest returning it.

      The software is supposed to be updated. If your passthrough is still bad, I'd put it in for warranty repair.

    • @ImaRainbow
      @ImaRainbow  5 месяцев назад

      QGO will make the apps themselves look better, if you're in this mode, but it doesn't affect pass thru at all. Don't know enough about ADB commands to say whether this could be a fix, but I haven't seen anything yet about them being used to correct it.

      Sorry to hear that. Bright lighting helps somewhat. Also there's been a few reports that folks who did multiple factory resets, eventually got it working. This didn't work for my buddy, but might be worth a try since you don't have other options.
