How does presentation mode work and how to set it up?

asynts

I got a video that I want to automatically start when the user puts on the headset.
If they take of the headset, the video should stop playing.
If another user puts on the headset, the video should start from the beginning.

My understanding is, that this can be achieved with the "presentation mode" in the global settings.

However, when I turned on the "presentation mode" it didn't quite work.
There was clearly a change in the loop options as expected, but the automatic playback didn't work.

I am using a Quest 2.

Thanks!

Have you found a solution?
The presentation mode doesn't seem to work.
I have the same problem with a Quest 3S.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

As Quest 3S doesn't have an auto-wake or wear detection feature(see this article), I'm afraid that SKYBOX's Presentation Mode function may work properly on Quest 3S.

You can manually press the power button to make your headset into sleep mode when you remove your Quest 3S and manually press the power button again to wake it up when you put it on. Then the Presentation Mode may work as expected.

Here's how the Presentation Mode works:
When the viewer puts on the VR headset, the VR headset wakes up and SKYBOX starts playing the current video from the beginning. And when the viewer removes the VR headset, the VR headset goes to sleep mode, then SKYBOX stops playing the current video.

Best regards,
Lucy
