[SKYBOX VR] Quest v1.1.5(beta): Supported watching YouTube videos and more

Lucy

hoooooooo
Hi there, I'm sorry the new Client doesn’t support custom thumbnails. We’ll bring back this feature in future releases.

The network error concern could be my network's issue, it happened rarely now. But filename refreshing and noise situations still happens frequently.

Does your YouTube app support 4K viewing as the default YouTube vr on meta does not on the quest 3 yet.
🙏🏼

Hi there, yes, SKYBOX supports watching YouTube videos in 4K.

Hello,

You can follow the steps to switch to beta version:

Visit SKYBOX VR Player product detail page with browser or Meta Quest mobile app. (Make sure you login to your Facebook/Meta account)
Click "Version" and select "1.1.5 Beta Release: 1.1.5"
Uninstall and reinstall SKYBOX on your Quest 3.

EDIT: If you connect like I did in Airlink, you will install 1.1.12 no matter what. New to Meta Quest, I do not know what this environment name is, but it is outside Airlink, with applications available on the bar. That is where it needs to be installed.

Lucy I have tried these steps multiple time.
version 1.12 (1367) is installed every time.

I am logged in a browser into my Meta account. I change the version to 1.1.5 beta. I put the Quest 3 on. Uninstall Skybox, reinstall Skybox. And it remains 1.1.2 (1367)
I've tried 5 times now.

What can I do to get the beta 1.1.5?

Sorry you can't login your YouTube account now.

The playback menu will not appear when you switch to the next image in the new beta update.

Please follow the steps to switch to beta version 1.1.5:

Visit SKYBOX VR Player product detail page with browser or Meta Quest mobile app. (Make sure you login to your Facebook/Meta account)

Uninstall and reinstall SKYBOX on your Quest.

Hello,

I'm so sorry for the inconvenience.

Could you please record a video of the controller issue and share with us(contact@skybox.xyz) the recording? Besides, please uninstall and reinstall the app to see if it works.

3D Full-SBS Matching

Could you add a file naming rule to enable this feature?
I tried "_LRF" filename with videos and images but it did not work.
It is really hard to setup a lots of images manually.

Navigate to the previous/next picture with the joystick or control knobs on the controllers while viewing pictures, .

Also, we need this.

Hi there, we'll consider adding a file naming rule "_LRF" to enable Full SBS Matching. We'll also have a discussion about navigating to the previous/next picture with joystick. Thank you for your feedback!

After updating to 1.1.5, the filename refresh problem started occurring again. When I modify or delete SMB files on the PC side, the changes may not be reflected on the Quest3 side. It doesn't happen all the time, but about once in 10 times. The only way to recover is to restart Skybox. I reverted to 1.1.4 and then this problem no longer occurs.

Hi there,

Thank you for your feedback!

I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused. To further investigate the issue, we hope you can share with us the INFO level logs.

You just need to go to SKYBOX's Global Settings, change the Logging Levels to "INFO", reproduce the issue, then click the BUG icon in the upper-right corner of Global Settings, and send us a bug report attached with logs(tick the "upload logs" box).

After locating the causes, we'll try to fix them as soon as possible.

你好，请问下是否能增加对webdav或者阿里云网盘的支持，还有就是对于NAS上视频文件直接下载缓存到本地，这样外出携带的场景会方便很多

Lucy

Johnmac
您好，感谢您的反馈！我们目前收到了较多关于WebDAV/网盘的反馈，会在后续版本考虑支持该功能。

does it support 8k in youtube vr ?

Lucy

madara
Hi there,

Are you using Quest 2 or Quest 3?

In the next big update v1.1.6, we plan to support 8K YouTube viewing on Quest 3.

Hi there,

Which VR headset do you use?

We've stopped updating the Rift version. So if you want to use SKYBOX Rift version(with AirLink), you can only use v1.1.2 or previous versions.

If you use SKYBOX Quest standalone version, you can update to the latest version 1.1.5. Please check whether you purchased SKYBOX Quest standalone version or Rift version. In other words, please check whether you're in Quest store or Rift store.

Thanks for your understanding and support!
