Opera’s new video playback will not only support 360-degree videos but standard videos as well. Simply turn your head in the direction you want to look. What’s more, looking around in the video will no longer require the use of a keyboard or mouse. One simple click will engulf the viewer into the 360-degree world offered by the video. When a user browses to a video, a button above the video (next to Opera’s video pop out button) labeled ‘Watch in VR’ will appear. The newest Opera developer version comes with VR 360 player feature enabled and will automatically detect an installed VR headset. This functionality enables users to watch virtual reality videos, and standard 2D videos, instantly through their VR headsets. That’s why Opera has begun to focus on creating and embedding direct VR playback into the browser. We want to bring the best web experience to our users. It wastes time and bandwidth on blindly downloading a video. Then quit the browser and launch a separate player app. So far they had to use inconvenient workarounds: download the video first, including spending time on finding a “download” button and waiting for the download, then.

However, with limited software support, it has been difficult for VR headset owners to easily enjoy the fast growing library of 360-degree content on Youtube, Facebook and other video portals. The rapid growth of 360 videos and soon WebVR bring an exciting revolution for VR content on the web. Most VR players can handle it easily.VR will change how we experience the web forever The dinosaur 3d video you mentioned is in Equirectangular 3D top_bottom format. I am using the 64bit 4.2 version that were made back in 2018. I use keyboard and mouse to control Whirliglig, no need for anything else. There is almost no way to play them correctly in most VR players, except now I found out that Whirliglig can handle them! Hooray ! Now I can finally play the 5% 360 video clips that were “unplayable” before.
This is the problem our friend here encountered. The new 360 video clips from Youtube are in CubeMap 3x2 format. Most VR video players can handle this format easily.
Also make sure you choose the correct “mono” or “stereo 3d” format. In Whirlilig you use “Barrel” format and FOV as 180 or 360 to see it. Is it 3D or just mono?įor most video clips, they are in Equirectangular format. You need to use a regular media player to open the video directly to see what kind of format the video clip actually is.
#Vr desktop video player how to
After i accept it starts SteamVR but then nothing happens.Ĭan someone please tell how to see youtube 360/180/3d videos? May be i need to install some VR browser? Or youtube 360 video downloader? When i open some web pages it asks to permit access to Virtual devices. I tried a lot to run Firefox (it says now have VR support) to see VR content.
I tried open Youtube 360 video in SteamVR browser, but it shows flat video that you can rotate with mouse/controller. When i copy link to youtube 360 video, VirtualDesktop downloads it as flat video and then stretch it to 360. But i don’t know how.Īpplication VirtualDesktop have mistakes. But problem that there are limited and mostly poor quality content, also search options works bad. I installed steam applications like VeeR that provide VR video content.

I mean not only 3d movies like in cinema, but full 360 video, where you can turn around. I am trying to watch video in VR but it’s not so easy.
