Pimax Hardware P2: 8kX

Hello there,there is sometimes a alot off mura with bright scenes.
Is there a way you could reduce that with a update?

Its a pitty because the rest looks absolutly great.

Also last night when i played lone echo(wich looked great,exept for the mura) i saw a black vertical black line exactly in the middel off the screen.

I will check tonight if other games have this too.I saw a post here on the forum that somebody else got this too on but then on his 8kplus.

I can see a kind of mura in bright areas sometimes but it doesnā€™t bother me. I wonder if some 8kx headsets have more than others.

Boy, John, you sure have issues with every single headset and graphics card youā€™ve tried lol. I donā€™t see any mura at all on my 8KX, just some minor SDE on white or very bright colors. StarVR was way worse in this regard.

I dont see any mura either and no black line.

Yeah unfortunately some have terrible luck in quality lottery. A few members have had 5 headsets replacements and each have had a quality issue. Likely why in part pimax is prepared for ā€œrapid rmaā€ as posted.

I tested now again and I can see just a tiny edge of mura but i have to focus more to see it than to see the SDE and I do have sharp eyes. while playing u wouldnt even notice that.

i tested some more but it seems that the black vertical line is only with the oculus game lone echoā€¦But other oculus games dont work on the 8kx with the latest pitool and firmwareā€¦like phantom ops and asgard wrath

The mura is still a thing thoo

The Eyetracking module causes an intrusive black vertical line for meā€¦

I guess as itā€™s physically protruding from the original flush Pimax lens and has a ā€˜gapā€™ between the two black plastic Eyetracking modules?

Iā€™ve only ever gotten a black horizontal line trying to play games that werenā€™t supposedly compatible with the headset(Obduction with current patch for example)

Iā€™d have to check Obduction but last time I ran it it worked fine. Mine was obtained through Gog but is launching in steamvr mode.

1.6.5 works fine but anything beyond that seems to cause a total blackout in the HMD (while still being rendered fine on the monitor)

Iā€™ve had the same issue with later versions and eventually gave up after their support (Cyan) basically said they didnā€™t support the Pimax headsets. I offered them to help debug it but they didnā€™t want to look into it.

Itā€™s in this thread: https://community.openmr.ai/t/obduction-1-8-0-promising-update-pp-no-longer-needed/21418/123

How do I rapid rma? I have a light leak, and my game has lots of god rays which I think you mean by mura?

I also see Mura on my 8KX. It is subtle enough, so not a huge deal for me, but it definitely can be seen if I put my attention to it.

The black line issue is not something I noticed though.
