Are you using remote desktop in Windows to "network" to the headset and then initiating 3D Blu-ray playback on a Blu-ray drive using software like Cyberlink PowerDVD? Not quite sure how you are getting frame packed 3D format working...can you provide some more info....

TIA

On the PC use software like Stereoscopic Player, MPC or maybe MadVR to convert the frame-packed rip into SBS or OU on the fly while playing.

On the Quest use Virtual Desktop (Check out vrdesktop.net) which converts the SBS/OU stream to 3D. VD is basically a remote desktop and VR steam gaming software which has a small agent running on the windows PC. This is why the Wifi spec is so important. Optimally the PC should be connected to the router by wire leaving the headset using Wifi. Wifi AC is the recommended minimum but you might get away with N.


There are two versions of VD, the one mentioned above is the most supported version and works great for over 99% of films I've watched. This is how I started out running VD using my Nvidia 2060 gpu laptop and for the most part I was very happy But the compression algorithm for wifi transmission can cause pixelation in very low light scenes. The Steam version of VD runs directly on your PC and uses very little compression so there isn't the same issue with low light scenes.

These are the basics. HtH
