jajajajaja it happens A LOT more than I'm going to admit ... I do this: 1-adjust camera, so I know where I will be positioned 2-on the side of the (1) position I put my cellphone, my two moves and my main controller IN THAT ORDER!! 3-only then I put on the headset!
I do this all the time. *puts DualShock controller on desk next to me and then puts the PSVR headset on Me, flailing my arm around trying to feel for the controller: “WHERE THE FUCK IS MY CONTROLLER?”
I find it helps to use the button on the headset to push the lens all the way back. Then looking down I can see where I’m at. Then just slide it back in. Doesn’t affect the position at all so you don’t have to readjust :)
One tip I found is not to have the headset pressed right up against your face as that'll fog up the lenses, leave a small gap. Also playing in a dark room helps the camera track the headset easier.
+Larry Bundy Jr Yep, so different as well as I've been using an HTC Vive at a friend's place and the tighter you have it on the better it is. PS VR really likes to fog up which gets much too annoying.
***** I've been rubbing a product called "cat crap" on the lenses to stop them fogging up. It's supposed to be for motorbike helmets and underwater goggles, but is perfect for VR too.
Hi Harry , The reason it fogs is because the lens are colder that your temperature. If the head set is kept warm this will get rid of it . If it mists up just click it out a few second and you will see it evaporate. then move it back
You absolute legend! I have just been bought a psvr and now wonder where it has been all my life! These set up tips aren’t explained at all initially and make such a huge difference.....well done dude!
One of the things I found was that sometimes one eye was out of focus rather than both. When your setting up the headset on your face, shut one eye and get that image focused, then do the same with the other eye. Then open and close each eye to ensure that both images are focused the same.
Tooting Bowles I think the headset is right eye dominate, as the social screen shows what is being seen only from the right lens. if that make any sensr
I sometimes feel like my eyes are slightly too wide apart for the lenses. It's not a huge deal but at 74mm IPD I feel that when I move the headset so my right eye is fully sharp from the middle of my view, the left one only has a sharp area to the right and the vision at the very center of my left eye is already in the "blurryness of the left lense-edge" territory. If I then move the headset so the left eye gets a sharp vision, the right one will then be on the fringe of being in the "edge-of-the-lense blur" territory. I quite wish they had managed to build some kind of sliders to move the lenses either a tiny bit closer or wider apart. I mean, it's not a huge deal, I set it at the middle and most of the center in my view is sharp enough that when getting into the game, I won't pay much attention to it, but .. anyway. I think a person with an IPD at the middle of the spectrum (63mm) will have the best experience with the headset.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I've been enjoying my new psvr for a couple of weeks, and had accepted that some blur was unavoidable for me. I had no idea that further calibration was possible. Why Sony doesn't tutorialize these steps is baffling.
Something many people may not know is, you can plug your psvr (control box included) into most HDMI slots and it will generate a personal theater. I've tried this with my xbox one and pc. Hope that helps!
Thank you for the video, and thank you to all the people who left helpful comments. I spent a ton on VR but I have trouble playing it because of the blur. Excited to try these tips out! ^_^
One other tip: I line up my eye line through the lenses so the centre is clear BEFORE I slide the screens towards my face. Only when the centre is clear (with no chromatic aberration around edges - ie. the blue/red fringes) do I then slide the lenses forward. Works every time.
I have some simple advice. For the best head tracking response, after performing your calibrations, playing in a darker room greatly improves the headset tracking (especially any jitters in the image). I've found that in a well-lit room I experience a lot of image jitter. This also applies to tracking both the motion controllers and dual shock controller.
Never toss your lens cleaning cloth on a dirty surface. Any small particles that get picked up can scratch and damage your lenses. Also, don't use your lens cloth to clean the PSVR surface. Again, dirt and grime gets on it. You want your lens cloth to stay as clean as possible.
I used two 1/2 inch pieces of weather stripping as glasses bumpers. One on each side. Worked perfect and it's a good thing I found out about this now because I wear glasses and just got the headset.
Great video thank you. I would never use a microfiber cloth on plastic lenses as microfiber are made out of plastic. Polyester is plastic and plastic will leave very fine grooves in plastic. 100% cotton is safer. Love video very good instruction!!
Yoooooooooooo make sure the lenses to the PS camera in clean too I was having issues with my vr tracking the headset and the controller's and tried all the calibration and then I thought let me check the camera and sure enough there was a smudge on it wiped that shit off and vr was working smooth as butter.
Get rid of misting up while wearing headset .. set up a fan blowing your way whilst playing. Which also makes skyrim feel more real by the way. This works
Few tips that work for me. Get a color-changing bulb or lamp for your room and set it to green. The green light helps the tracking lights stand out from the background, people using the aim controller for Farpoint have reported a huge improvement with weapon stability with virtually no weapon shake when using a green light. Check your background thoroughly. I got annoyed with my tracking issues, and realised that behind me I had a window and a mirror, both of which were reflecting the blue light from my headset, in addition to that my PC was in the background and the power light also shines blue, all these reflections and blue lights were confusing the camera. Once I fixed that I had a much better experience.
Yeah farpoint I still have to figure out, sometimes when im looking down the sights the red circle will start sliding to the right even though im not moving lol
wow my friend, i just realise i have a aquarium behind me and that act as a reflector from the back light of my helmet... will cover that with a black cloth from now on! Thanks!!!
Wear your glasses (if you have them) with the headset...I'm near sighted and still had a slight blur with the headset regardless of how it was positioned on my head or how I cleaned them. I have a light prescription for driving glasses because my vision sucks at night. When I used my glasses in the headset, the difference was night and day. It was like switching the headset to HD immediately.
I found turning my headset on 15+ minutes prior to playing reduces the fogging. Every time I used to play in would get so frustrated that it would almost instantly fog, but I found warming it up to near body temperature helps.
Great video, man. I got my psvr last month and I cannot stop playing with it. It's fantastic. I'm using your advice in this video because there is blurriness. Silly it doesn't give you the full calibration at the start. Thanks again for this video
Tip tip for glasses wearers, take out the rubber face mask, dim your lights/close your curtains, and turn on a fan, then your glasses don’t steam up in summer! Also, bonus, you can look down and see where you put your controller/s. Be sure to add plastic ‘lens protectors’ to the headset that you can buy on eBay, they prevent your glasses from touching the vr lenses and scratching them.
Put the camera higher up and position it a little downward, I had issues tracking higher up and having it also track the ground when playing games such as job simulator until I made these adjustments, now all they need to do is add 360 camera view for full tracking!
Also remember to extend the visor before putting on or taking off the headset to prevent smudging the lenses (and remind anyone who you let use your headset) And when adjusting the positioning of the headset on your head, do it with the visor extended so you can really center the lenses to your eyes. The clarity of the headset isn't really determined by how clear you see the image on the screen, but how clear the "grain" (or actual pixels of the headset) are. Sometimes I found that even with the headset correctly adjusted, the screen still looks blurry, but thats just a limitation of the technology.
Thanks for this great video, just picked up a unit myself and had this problem during my first attempt. Tried it again last night and the experience was much better.
Mine was quite blurry and I had no idea why. I followed all the steps and still no luck. Only to realise I had taken my contacts out and couldn't actually see. It amazing how u need good vision to see something so close to your eyes.
Harry Woodland I had the same problem when I tried using mine without my glasses on. When I realized I could fit the headset on while still wearing them, it was amazing.
Nice video. Clear and precise. I use iKlear solution to clean my lenses. It contains no chemicals or alcohol. I clean my iPhone and MacBook with it and have done for years. I'd say it's the safest thing you can use to clean your lenses.
The lens cleaner I used I purchased for my DSLR lens, also looked into it and people seem to interchange eyeglass and DLSR lens cleaner with ease so it doesn't seem to be detrimental to eyes or lenses.
Wow, I had no idea these were even there! I recently resurrected my PS VR1 because it's capable of watching physical 3D blu-ray media, and the PS VR2 cannot. I am gonna try all these out when I get home from work!
Great video ,i thought I'd mention that.. on the back off the headseat is a dial u can twist once the headset is on and this helps with the stability of the the headset on ur head,it will help with blur too, just dont have it too tight .
Great video. I was concerned my eye distance was interfering and that I just had to deal with it. Thank you for the tips that Sony had missed telling me for some reason.
I've just started on resident evil 7 vr and I understand that that was 1 of the early vr releases, it is a bit grainy but I did these adjustments in your video and its seems to have smoothed things out considerably. the walking dead saints and sinners is now out on ps4 and that game looks badass bro, I'm looking forward to seeing how the overall graphic textures have come along since RE7 compared with the release of the walking dead which got released on the 5th of this month I beleive. thx for the tutorial anyway dude, peace. ✌🇬🇧✌
I personally discovered quite quickly that if the headset was even slightly off centre on your face (I.e the lenses are slightly above or below your eyes) that the image would bend and blur really badly so you must make sure that you adjust the height if the headset on your face perfectly every time (a bit of a pain I know)
This is more of a low tech tip but if you don't have/don't want to pay for a stand but want somewhere to sit your headset while it isn't in use. I drape the microfiber cloth over the lens and sit my headset on the top of an old lampshade. It does the trick and I just roll the cord around the inside of it :)
WOW!! I literally went from headache and extreme eye strain after 5min playing and almost ditching the whole VR thing completely to playing 6hours in one sitting comfortably!!
@@Mrjharedtherosehoneythunderer I attribute 99.9% to the one where you measure the distance between your eyes which for some reason is not included in the initial startup procedure from sony
Thank you, I just always felt my eyes weren’t straight or even enough to enjoy a clear PSVR experience. It’s good but if i look away from center it blurs. I am beginning to think it’s not me, maybe my OCD?, but it’s not a 100% perfect clear HD image everywhere all at once.
Thanks for the tips mate I'll try them tomorrow. I have a leather sofa and I've found that if I throw a non reflective sheet or blanket over the side of the sofa that I am not using it helps with the screen shifting to the left.
I know this video is ages old but have a fuckin sub mate. IPD is so important and I couldn't for the life of me figure out why there was no adjustment on the hardware side for PSVR. Fortunately it was okay out of the box but dialing it in perfectly is EXACTLY what I wanted. TYSM.
iREALLY APPRECIATE YOU BEING SELFLESS AND TAKING THE TIME TO MAKE THIS VIDEO MARIO! YOUR A BLESSING IN DISGUISE MAN! P.S. I SEE YOU WITH THE SYSTEM OF A DOWN SHIRT HOMIE ;-) "WAIT FOR THE LORD'S HELP. BE STRONG AND BRAVE, AND WAIT FOR THE LORD'S HELP."
great advice will try eye tracking tomorrow never knew that watched movie on dvd today was good quality a little blurry but Blu ray far far better much clearer picture and sounded great
I accidentally stumbled into this video, but I'm glad "eye" did!! I did know about the eye distances measurement, can't wait to test this! Thanks from the future!
At First I took a picture for the Eye Distance with the Headset on my head. Yeah I know, pretty stupid... And that is why my vision was always so blurry(87mm/3,4") After seeing this Video I calibrated my Headset again and voila... 62mm/ 2,4" Now Robinson the Journey looks with the "old" PS4, way sharper than before :)
the screen where you make sure the letters are clear can be found just by holding the ps button and going to adjust vr headset also you can reset the screen there so its not way off. This way you don't even need to go into settings you can just do it on your main menu and even in game on some games.
I haven't found the inter-pupillary distance makes any difference to eye strain, but it DOES affect the scale of things in VR. For example, if all the NPCs seem child-size, make the pupil distance smaller. If everything seems too big, move the pupils further apart. This was driving me nuts until I realised how to fix it. It seems the default scale of the world is a little too small.
@@AggressiveASMR it’s going great! Would definitely recommend Beat Saber, TWD Saints and Sinners and Job Simulator! Sometimes the screen door effect gets a bit too easy to spot, but you can ignore it. It’s also surprisingly light compared to other headsets. Hope you love your new headset! :)
anyone that still has image problems after doing these Tips should plug the headset straight into vr unit without the extension. it made a massive difference for myself and others i have informed.
I find out that, for me, making one eye lower than the other (moving the psvr slightly lower on one side) make it way better. Just setting the eye adjustment didn't do it. People also have to keep their glasses on, as the psvr will not adjust for your eye sight. Having astignmatism myself, i HAVE to keep my glasses. just make sure to keep your glasses very close to your eyes (bring them all the way to the top of your nose) and then bring back the headset CAREFULLY and slowly back toward them until everything is clear. You can scratch the lenses though so be sure you use glasses elastic (sport type) to keep your glasses hook back tightly. Hope this help.
Something is not talked about specially for those who wear glasses and I noticed it after a while , is that glasses scratches the lenses of your PSVR which you need to protect them by a plan of somekind! And also if you have scratches already then you need to watch videos of how to make the scratches less by using some of those chimical creams that fixs cds or glasses
I'll say this once, it's up to you how you clean it anyway. Sony adamantly stated not to use any type of liquid on your PSVR lenses, only the microfibre cloth.
+SlashingShadow copying and pasting this response that I just typed to someone else who referred to the manual but said their lenses are now nasty because screw retyping stuff on a phone: That's why I used the lens cleaner, even after some time the microfiber cloth alone isn't enough. Friends I've talked with who have used VR for a while as well as several places I looked online pointed to the direction that it should be fine, but it's really up to you.
I heard that the Sony reps demoing PS VR at PAX were using a standard spectacle lens cleaner to clean the headset lenses as they are also made of glass, unlike the Rift and Vive's which are a kind of plastic. Proceed with caution, though.
I am going to try this when i get home tonight. Thank you so much for making this video. I did exactly NONE of this lol this is probably why everything is sooo blurry lol
Before you try all these tips and tricks make sure you have a VR headset
Important.
Very good point, thank you.
Knew I was missing something
Isaac Barrett erm pretty sure you need a ps4 for a vr
yeah, I don’t have one.
Before you put the headset you need to remember where your controller was because it going to be hard looking for it.
jajajajaja it happens A LOT more than I'm going to admit ...
I do this:
1-adjust camera, so I know where I will be positioned
2-on the side of the (1) position I put my cellphone, my two moves and my main controller IN THAT ORDER!!
3-only then I put on the headset!
It should have a sensor?
I do this all the time.

Same.
So like a mental thing?
Screen brightness. So much more depth when I took it down to about 20% brightness.
?
Ivan Ruiz I missed the question there Ivan...
Brax Fistya nice, I haven't thought about playing around with those settings yet. Imma give it a try
Yeah I also bumped it down by around 20% .. don't really notice anything in the graphics, but alot less ugly pixelation in dark areas.
I like it 💯, I try lowering it but I find it too dark
Thank for you all the tips! The eye distance thing explains a lot why some people have no problem getting focus and others never do.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I've been enjoying my new psvr for a couple of weeks, and had accepted that some blur was unavoidable for me. I had no idea that further calibration was possible. Why Sony doesn't tutorialize these steps is baffling.

Omg does this actually WORK??
@@Bboy-lk6rz yes it works
What do you mean by personal theatre?
Bradley Hiemstra: Like a movie theater. A 200+ inch screen. It’s amazing!

>PlayStation tells me to wear my glasses while playing
>glasses scratch the lenses
Have you played it without tho? I did and it was blurry as hell. Same as when not wearing glasses normally. Lol
I let my mom play while wearing her glasses. Now my lenses are scraped to hell. 60.00 will get me a new headset... Thanks Mom!
I wear glasses.i always have them on when i use the vr, not one scatch.
@@jarmoulcorbin660 you're so cool.

Watching after 5 years this legend salute you for helping me and others
Absolutely DO NOT LET SUNLIGHT HIT THE LENSES ON YOUR PSVR HEADSET. Sunlight can burn the screens and ruin that $150 headset.
How do you know if this has happened? It's hard for me to that if the visual errors I see are just regular issues with the headset or something else.
I reccomend putting everything back in the box in came in for easy storage
150$? I bought mine for 540 😭😭😭
Kaye Bueno if you bought it on release, yes it’s A LOT more than it is worth now

I found that Changing the original HDMI cables (tv to psvr and psvr to ps4) from HDMI1.4 to HMDI 2.0 helped me a lot.
How are they not 2.0 they are all 2.0 the only ones that are different are 2.1 cords
Wow! Pupil distance measuring! I’m using this number on my Rift. Always guessed before. You taught me something. Worth a subscriber! :D
wow my psvr actually feels alot more high quality now. thanks mate!
And need to remember where your soda is setting 👍
The most important tip here.
make sure you do the eye measurements in the options that worked for me loads
Great video, man. I got my psvr last month and I cannot stop playing with it. It's fantastic. I'm using your advice in this video because there is blurriness. Silly it doesn't give you the full calibration at the start. Thanks again for this video

Thank you, I did not know that there was not a tutorial when you start it up, so thanks because I might be getting one soon.
For the cleaning section you can remove the light shield completely and rinse it off in a sink with warm water, just pull very gently.
He's right about the initial steps for blurred vision but if u want to prevent fog, blow dry ur psvr lenses. Fog is caused by room temperature .
I personally discovered quite quickly that if the headset was even slightly off centre on your face (I.e the lenses are slightly above or below your eyes) that the image would bend and blur really badly so you must make sure that you adjust the height if the headset on your face perfectly every time (a bit of a pain I know)
This is more of a low tech tip but if you don't have/don't want to pay for a stand but want somewhere to sit your headset while it isn't in use. I drape the microfiber cloth over the lens and sit my headset on the top of an old lampshade. It does the trick and I just roll the cord around the inside of it :)
Good idea.
WOW!! I literally went from headache and extreme eye strain after 5min playing and almost ditching the whole VR thing completely to playing 6hours in one sitting comfortably!!
Very nice! Although be sure to still get breaks in!
Which part helped the most
@@Mrjharedtherosehoneythunderer I attribute 99.9% to the one where you measure the distance between your eyes which for some reason is not included in the initial startup procedure from sony
Thank you, I just always felt my eyes weren’t straight or even enough to enjoy a clear PSVR experience. It’s good but if i look away from center it blurs. I am beginning to think it’s not me, maybe my OCD?, but it’s not a 100% perfect clear HD image everywhere all at once.
Thanks for the tips mate I'll try them tomorrow. I have a leather sofa and I've found that if I throw a non reflective sheet or blanket over the side of the sofa that I am not using it helps with the screen shifting to the left.
I know this video is ages old but have a fuckin sub mate. IPD is so important and I couldn't for the life of me figure out why there was no adjustment on the hardware side for PSVR. Fortunately it was okay out of the box but dialing it in perfectly is EXACTLY what I wanted. TYSM.
thank you sooooo much for this i will do these immediatly i have been so anoyyed about the blurring for AGES thank you so much! :D
iREALLY APPRECIATE YOU BEING SELFLESS AND TAKING THE TIME TO MAKE THIS VIDEO MARIO! YOUR A BLESSING IN DISGUISE MAN! P.S. I SEE YOU WITH THE SYSTEM OF A DOWN SHIRT HOMIE ;-)
"WAIT FOR THE LORD'S HELP. BE STRONG AND BRAVE, AND WAIT FOR THE LORD'S HELP."
omg... i adjusted the psvr lights with my psvr on.... it was PRETTY DIFFICULT
im so ashamed ahahahahaha a LOL
That's hilariously epic.
I’m not even mad, that’s impressive.
Thats amazing bro
I did it too like that and now i regret buying psvr because of that lol
I would’ve paid any amount of money to see that 😂 I am impressed
I've watched a few of these. This is by far the best. Thanks
great advice will try eye tracking tomorrow never knew that
watched movie on dvd today was good quality a little blurry but Blu ray far far better much clearer picture and sounded great
I accidentally stumbled into this video, but I'm glad "eye" did!! I did know about the eye distances measurement, can't wait to test this! Thanks from the future!
Glad it might be helpful!
GFJF and *EYE* see what you did there.
At First I took a picture for the Eye Distance with the Headset on my head. Yeah I know, pretty stupid...
And that is why my vision was always so blurry(87mm/3,4")
After seeing this Video I calibrated my Headset again and voila...
62mm/ 2,4"
Now Robinson the Journey looks with the "old" PS4, way sharper than before :)
your not the only one that did that stupid shit lol
The PS4 Pro really helps with the blurred VR headset on some games if they are patched, I noticed it cleaned up the periferals quite well.
the screen where you make sure the letters are clear can be found just by holding the ps button and going to adjust vr headset also you can reset the screen there so its not way off. This way you don't even need to go into settings you can just do it on your main menu and even in game on some games.
I greatly appreciate you making this instructional video. Thank you so much.
Brand new to the vr. This has helped alot!, ill be subscribing, hoping for more tips on the PlayStation 4! Good explaining man
Great vid thanks 👍🏻
Now I just need to find my sick bag
I haven't found the inter-pupillary distance makes any difference to eye strain, but it DOES affect the scale of things in VR. For example, if all the NPCs seem child-size, make the pupil distance smaller. If everything seems too big, move the pupils further apart. This was driving me nuts until I realised how to fix it. It seems the default scale of the world is a little too small.
This us amazing i did all steps and it worked fantastically well
2:38 You look like Wreck it Ralph Lol
Tracking works best in a dark room. Cannot stress that enough.
Nice informative video, thanks for that.
Thanks for these useful tips. I wouldn't have done this if i hadn't seen your video.
I’m getting a PSVR in a few weeks! So excited!!!
Hey, i'm getting it in few days, how is it so far
@@AggressiveASMR it’s going great! Would definitely recommend Beat Saber, TWD Saints and Sinners and Job Simulator! Sometimes the screen door effect gets a bit too easy to spot, but you can ignore it. It’s also surprisingly light compared to other headsets. Hope you love your new headset! :)
@@lands26 Perfect thank you!
Hey, don’t know if you’re seeing this but I’m getting this for my bday in 3 days. Is it good?
@@dominnno yeah u feel it like if u are in there inside
These were some very good tips thank you! Liked and subbed.
Don't throw your headset best advise I can give
Do you speak from experience?
@@MrMario2011 I actually got my VR headset yesterday
Damn I knew I shouldn’t have thrown it around
aww man. i thought thatcwas how u fixed it.
anyone that still has image problems after doing these Tips should plug the headset straight into vr unit without the extension.
it made a massive difference for myself and others i have informed.
Makes sense as you have a direct connection, however you'd just have to be careful moving around without that extension.
***** i wouldn't recommend playing without the extension, only to try it, and if it did give clearer images you could then get a replacement. 🤔
Great video. Didn't know any of these options were on there. been having issues with the blur hopefully this sorts it out.
I’m so dumb I didn’t know you could put your glasses on😂
It isn't the most comfortable thing, but it is recommended.
yeah well prepare for tons of scratches
Great video thanks didn’t know any of this set up
Awesome tips. Downside to adjusting settings to my face/eyes is if someone else uses the headset on my profile. There should be an easier way.
Make a separate profile for them, that's what I do for friends and family who use it.
I find out that, for me, making one eye lower than the other (moving the psvr slightly lower on one side) make it way better. Just setting the eye adjustment didn't do it. People also have to keep their glasses on, as the psvr will not adjust for your eye sight. Having astignmatism myself, i HAVE to keep my glasses. just make sure to keep your glasses very close to your eyes (bring them all the way to the top of your nose) and then bring back the headset CAREFULLY and slowly back toward them until everything is clear. You can scratch the lenses though so be sure you use glasses elastic (sport type) to keep your glasses hook back tightly. Hope this help.
My eye lashes are really long so this helped alot
Trim them 🤣
Really helpful!! Good job adding this!!
LOL Why does this look like DSP's couch ? XD
You better apologize to my couch for even considering that.
Loved the video! Really helped me out!
Something is not talked about specially for those who wear glasses and I noticed it after a while , is that glasses scratches the lenses of your PSVR which you need to protect them by a plan of somekind! And also if you have scratches already then you need to watch videos of how to make the scratches less by using some of those chimical creams that fixs cds or glasses
I'll say this once, it's up to you how you clean it anyway. Sony adamantly stated not to use any type of liquid on your PSVR lenses, only the microfibre cloth.
+SlashingShadow copying and pasting this response that I just typed to someone else who referred to the manual but said their lenses are now nasty because screw retyping stuff on a phone:
That's why I used the lens cleaner, even after some time the microfiber cloth alone isn't enough. Friends I've talked with who have used VR for a while as well as several places I looked online pointed to the direction that it should be fine, but it's really up to you.
play on the dark. helps tremendously.
BrisketBack
yep I only use it during the night.
Nope
I heard that the Sony reps demoing PS VR at PAX were using a standard spectacle lens cleaner to clean the headset lenses as they are also made of glass, unlike the Rift and Vive's which are a kind of plastic. Proceed with caution, though.
This really works
1:23
Speaking of blur
Lol
thank you for the tip it really helped the blurriness
I am going to try this when i get home tonight. Thank you so much for making this video. I did exactly NONE of this lol this is probably why everything is sooo blurry lol
