The RTX cards support that over DP. I don’t think that it would work with just a standard DP → HDMI converter. You’d probably need special hardware to convert DP including DSC to HDMI including DSC. Then again, I don’t know much about the DSC protocol. If it’s just within the normal HDMI specs it might work.
Nah. The panel just isn’t very suitable for VR. Way too much ghosting and the colours/contrast already is quite bad as it is. More shutter time will only make it worse. You’re beating a dead horse man. And Pimax won’t do it anyway, they’re focusing on new hmd’s which I think is a very wise decision. It seems they’ve already sold the rights to the pimax 4k anyway.
You can have extended mode with the older software, v1.1.92 I think it was called?
So you should then use a DP → HDMI converter and MAYBE that will correctly translate the DSC code. I doubt it though, but who knows, there’s as chance it works of course.
Agreed. The og p4k would be best to opensource it fully if possible for tweakers. From mt uunderstanding it uses the same toshiba? Bridgechip as og rift & Vive. A bridgechip upgrade maybe needed to enable dsc?
Extend mode/video mode at present I believe is only directly available in piplay. But manually editing a json file might be able to enable it. But without pitool interface being unavailable. As some p5k & p8k users had used piplay to set extend mode (crashed these 2 models). A user found the config file that uploads to headset.
We were able to get them back to functioning headset by switching extend to pimax mode.
But would need to test. A search might yeild info on this. Somewhere between Oct 2018 & Dec 2018
Whats the json file called? When I install app I play it doesn’t see the headset. But if I can enable extended mode in pitool by editing a json then I’m totally game.
Wow I just played Arizona Sunshine on the 5K+, Index and Reverb in a row.
And hell yeah the Reverb looks sooo much better, no comparsion, but the tracking was a bit glitchy especially if I drop a magazin and have to pick it up from the ground…
Yeah very well possible, light is very important with inside out tracking. I had tracking issues too when I first got my odyssey+. With some more light everything worked fine.
Yes WMR is picky with light sources.
Once figured out though, it ain’t much of a deal anymore.
If you have the gear I really recommend trying to mix WMR with BS. Especially If you have your BS System already fixed, which makes things easier. I’ll roughly estimate one hour of tinkering to make it work.
Do you use openvr space calibrator to do it? I used it for a while but it was kind of finicky with some games and I constantly had to tinker with things to get them in the right positions and calibrated correctly
