Yum Sorry if this is an obvious question, how do I access the beta using a Quest 2?

I can play 4K 120fps videos use v1.0.3 but the videoframe is about 75 average, looks like a hardware limitation.

Would you mind sharing with us the 4K 120fps video at contact@skybox.xyz so we could test it on our side?
Thank you!

It seems like this update REQUIRES tracking, which I often do not use at night when watching movies in the dark. If you try and bypass it, it seems like it causes glitching.

Any chance of bringing favorites to SMB, or the Air sharing?

Hi,
We will release a version very soon to disable the tracking requirement.

bringing favorites to SMB

Researching on it.

Yum Thank you! I had to roll back to 1.0.2. It tracking requirement was causing some pretty detrimental issues when in a dark room.

Have you considered adding support for HDR?
No screen support required, just like PotPlayer.

Been working on it for quite some time now.
We are hoping to release the feature in beta somewhere in late-May.
