HMD Only Locked/Frozen

[Jarilo]

All games started to do this for me, the HMD will freeze/light vibration. The image is frozen in place. The game however is running just fine on the main Monitor output. Happens at random pretty much all titles, fix is only to restart SteamVR. Any help really would be appreciated.

The game must be on first floor on your monitor

Not sure what you mean, it is the full screen display as the game first.

I’m sorry I’m Italian and I use google translator.
I was saying, it happens to me that the screen in the viewer freezes when the game is no longer in the foreground on the PC monitor. but just bring the game back to the foreground for it to go back to spinning on the viewer

@luka2099 It’s okay, I appreciate the attempt at help. I think it may be a conflict with SteamVR’s motion smoothing. I will just keep troubleshooting myself.

No dice, oddly Mass Effect doesn’t do it nor Deus Ex Mankind divided.

Probably not the suggestion you hoped for, but if you haven’t done so already, please try a full factory reset in the config app (Trouble Shooting page). Maybe some settings are messed up. If it works for some games, but not for others, that’s a resonable assumption.

Be aware that a factory reset removes all custom profiles from the database and resets all profiles. So if you have profiles that you put a lot of effort in and don’t want to lose, back them up beforehand by dragging them from the local profiles list to your desktop.

Thanks Ralf, I did try that after saving all of my settings to vps files, but it still does it. Strange. The image just jitters and stays frozen in the headset but the game is fine on the monitor :/ . I’m going to try some things like running windowed mode etc
