What headset are you using? I had some trouble getting it to work initially but it should work. Maybe test some other “easier” to hook games first before Death Stranding. Also make sure you have the correct headset/runtime selected in vorpx menu.

Death Stranding works now with openxr, most likely the issue was with dated Radeon software/driver. Still couldn´t get Control to hook but I have to try that later again.

Thanks could be only problem on my end too, since there are other games I have problem getting hooked like Control didn´t work for me in steamvr or openxr.

But performance wasn´t that bad with steamvr on Death Stranding so I will use that mode for now.

So this works only in steamvr mode and not in openxr?
Also for the next update can you add Deathstranding.exe to the process list, since the egs version uses that instead of ds.exe.

Thanks rishp, I tried playing around with it but can´t get the proper 3D format out of it.

I tried these steps but none of the 3d output options produce over/under or sbs video for vorpx?

Also if I run mpc-be with vorpx svp doesn´t hook to the video? But if I understand you correctly you don´t need SVP for the 3D, only for framerate conversion?

Also in the process, I managed somehow to mess up my vorpx configuration file so I need to install it again. :p

Free option for converting frame packed MKV´s to SBS videos.

This isn´t a quick conversion and a fast processor helps, and if you have the settings dialed down you only need to do it once.

I tried to play around with the demo version with limited success. I can get it to hook but no 3D depth in any mode (geometry has also some issues).

Time to watch some real world F1 now but I´ll take a look later if I can get it to run properly. The game is also limited to 36fps I don´t know if this can be bypassed somehow, its a long time since I last booted up GPL. ;)

[Laser]

Yes.
Thanks for looking in to it. I know this is a niche within a niche, so not many people will even need this feature but if it is an “easy” feature to add then that is one more checkbox for vorpx features.

In the meantime im trying currently another app called dvdfab that can output sbs video from 3d-blurays. Not a free program and actually quite expensive but the trial version lets you rip 3 discs for free so for fun Im trying this out.

[Laser]

I would be happy to just use MPC-HC but the way the 3D blu-rays are ripped in frame packed 3d-format it doesn´t work just with MPC-HC alone. Madvr is needed to display the side by side image for vorpx.

But with vorpx desktop viewer I can get it running now, not the optimal solution but it works.

I don´t know what changed after the update, like I said before I could hook the madvr.exe but then I didn´t have the option to change video formats.

[Laser]

Nah I don´t think the alternative fast mode made the difference since Im getting good results in other modes too. Maybe the direct openxr mode to vorpx helped the desktop viewer and playing videos? Moving the mouse cursor during videos causes major stutters so I need to wait a bit after each setting change in vorpx profile.

[Laser]

Failing to hook directly to madvr I tried the desktop mode again and found a solution to previous judder issues. I had to change headset sync to alternative fast mode and now the video plays smoothly! Tomorrow I will play with madvrs own settings if theres any room for improvement and I need to rip more 3d blurays. ;)

[Laser]

After the latest update I can´t get vorpx hooked to madhcCtrl.exe, it tries to but never does, tested also hook helper and alternative method but those didn´t help. Well at least I am not accidentally deleting my video files after hitting delete key anymore. :)

[Laser]

Yeah, great improvement for us Reverbers, before I was struggling with even older games, now I could bump the resolution up considerably.

Thanks for the update.

which I believe is coming in about 8 months, to force every Oculus Rift user to have an active Facebook Account.

I don´t know where you got that number but you should have way more time than that.

“If you’re an existing user and choose not to merge your accounts, you can continue using your Oculus account for two years.

After January 1, 2023, we will end support for Oculus accounts. If you choose not to merge your accounts at that time, you can continue using your device, but full functionality will require a Facebook account. ”

So you still have 1,5 years of full functionality and even after that it won´t brick itself just because you link it with facebook account.

I already left the facebook camp for Reverb, I gave my old to a family member and that unit won´t be used with vorpx anymore. Stopped buying anything from oculus store so I don´t miss anything even if I can´t use my library after 2023.

And since CV1 has been an EOL product for a while I don´t think there will be any driver updates.

Ok, almost got it working with out desktop viewer and its judder problems.
You actually need to vorpx to hook up to madHcCtrl.exe and not mpc-hc64.exe

So I temporarily changed my mpc-hc64.exe to something else so vorpx doesn´t try to hook up to that since its also running parallel with madhctrl.exe.

I made a copy of media player classics profile since I can not add or remove processes of that built in profile. Now it hooks up fine to madvr but now the options page for changing video format is gone?`

Ralf any ideas, can I fix it myself or do you need to make changes to vorpx itself?
