Oculus Quest highest video resolution??

@Yum - I tested the "watch this video in 6k with viewport" with the SLR app. It streams "viewport optimized" videos in "6k". The result is very disappointing. It is LESS sharp than the 4k stream of the same video. I am not sure why.

Does your implementation have the same problem? Or does it actually look better than 4k of the same video?

Well an easier solution is simply downsample the video to make it playable on Quest.
Our solution is way more complicated than that...

@m4ko - just curious - didn't see higher resolution playback on the roadmap. Is this still planned to be released in beta soon?

Sorry it's been a while since we last edited the roadmap.
I will update it today.
We will release a new beta on Go/Gear/Quest very soon but this version will not include the support for higher resolution playback (we are still working on it though with an ETA of end of September).

any news about higher resolution playback?

Still working on it right now...
The actual display is not as good as we want it to be so we are still in the process of optimization.
Current ETA would be the end of October or early of November.

Best,

Yum Hi yum, i have tried many 5400x2700 on the Quest and none of them ever played smooth for me. Is there anything you can recommend me to do? like disable/enable certain settings in Skybox or in the Quest? i'm still hoping every day for the new feature that will support higher resolutions than 2160p, but i would be already completely satisfied with 2700p, so any tips would be really appreciated

You may wanna try h264 with lower frame rate (30 fps should be alright) and bit rate (below 40mb/s) on 5400x2700 videos. It looks pretty smoothy for us.

h265 material maxes out around 4k.

devonsmith Thanks for this feedback.
