How to watch 3D movies?

Option 1

Step 1: Install the latest version of PiPlay and a special Kodi player will automatically be installed with it (it will appear as a shortcut on the desktop).
Step 2: Launch PiPlay and switch to Video Move mode (on the PiPlay main screen, click on the tab and select this mode).
Step 3: Put on your glasses and the Kodi player should automatically open there. In it, with a mouse, look for the desired file and open it, then in the same place on the special panel, select the 3D mode (horizontal or vertical).

Advantages of this method:
+ you get the clearest and cleanest picture, without any soap

Minuses:
- you can't turn your head like in Virtual Desktop
- Not all video file formats are supported.
- no 360 video support

Option 2

Step 1. Install the programVirtual Desktopand run it.
Step 2. We remove the helmet! Run your 3D movie with any pair (horizontal or vertical) on a regular player (for example, Pot Player or Splash Pro). Example:

Step 3. Next, go to settingsVirtual Desktopand here in the category3D optionschoose the desired pair:Half sbsorOver Under (OU).

Step 4. In the player, open the movie to full screen and wear a helmet.

P.S. If a movie is shown in a compressed form, then, for example, in Pot Player it is easy to stretch it while holding theNum 6.

Advantages of this method:
+ support for multiple video formats
+ 360 video support
+ you can turn your head

Minuses:
- the video may not be clear, blurry

More 3D movies can be watched using Simple Video Player. If he does not read all the films, then read this post:Pimax 4k - Discussion (Fast samuelq # 68098316)

_AmperSand_, Well, everything is clear. Games are not blunt after the restart because the first default screenshot is always daw at 1920x1080. Accordingly, I have to always look down and shoot daw. After that, the helmet is overloaded and takes its native resolution.
When placing in Pipli Render 3.0 and 100% in stimvr all games will be tough to slow down even the most minimal graphics settings.
Check for example DCS

I never after a reboot or put a checkmark 1920x1080. For the first time I've heard that it posed itself automatically. I am sure that others, too, she did not put. You probably have some kind of bug or there is an option that your software automatically puts this mark because of poor iron. In this case, I would recommend to upgrade the computer.

degrease78 @ 18.03.19, 17:46

You are wrong. I use these settings everything works fine and the picture is excellent. There is also a familiar Pimax 4K (I did it set up) and has at the same game settings are fine, although a bit weaker PC (card 1070 GTX Ti). If you brake, as I have already said - to do upgrades. If you do not help, you may have quite dirty vindous. Reinstall it or clean of debris. To argue with you, I do not intend to, but facts are facts.

You obviously something wrong.
Glitches.
When rendering 3.0 and 100% stimvr there under resolution 5000 * 5000 is 1080ti not take out (I also 1080ti).
Which version of Pipli and stimvr?
And even 2080ti not pull.
May involve games dynamic resolution, ie, themselves reduced to an acceptable level. Maybe even that.
Miracles do not happen.
What games are testing?
Turn on the game stimvr mirror and take a screenshot. Look with what resolution will screen.
Notify.

Next, be sure to restart your computer! Otherwise, after the application settings - all applications will greatly blunt.

There is no need to do this. The settings are applied immediately. You obviously have some glitches in the system.
In the screenshot of stimvr seen that the recommended SS even less than 20 (the left light bar). You have a processor?
I've got the recommended 26% of the CPU i7 7700-C.
A resolution from Simple video player is less than stimvr because his own super sampling is, and he dropped it explicitly.
Check the settings on the player.
Similarly, in games underestimated.

Go into settings and take a look, and then write here, please.

I wrote that in the game has its own settings, ranging from Low Quality and finishing Ultra Quality. If the brakes - you can put Hight, instead of the Ultra.

FalloutVR, SkyrimVR, Hellblade etc.

Exactly the same resolution as Simple Video Player on the last page. I'm tired of shipping here screenshots of 10 mb and wait until they are flooded with phone ...

degrease78 @ 18.03.19, 22:20

You have a processor?

i7-8700K without overclocking
RAM 32GB

Listen I have to prove anything not going to hurt me to have to spend time. Once again, I repeat to you - no ticks themselves are not put! Nor when you restart or after this time ..! Secondly tincture that I have described - work well on cards from GTX1070 and not only me, but also friends, who also have Pimax 4K. If you do not - so you can not be lucky with the instance of the helmet, or a problem in the PC.

On the last page, I wrote your settings are not for you, but for the visitors so that they enjoy games and movies in the highest quality. Waste my time on you personally and something to prove to you - I broke ... Good luck: thank_you:

It happens in Pipli, sometimes you come into the game and feel that the picture has deteriorated, it turned out that PEOPLE resets to the default. Now again I faced with this, but in pitule:

It was like this:

But I often disconnect the helmet from the computer by disconnecting the usb cable, Dunno, can therefore reset the settings. I suggest that the case in windows, it's probably not the case, only recently reinstalled windows 10, at this point the system is clean and not crap. To say that the case for iron, it is also unlikely, since I i7-4770, gtx1080ti and 24 GB of RAM. More guess it from off the helmet, there are no other reasons, well, or so software. The other day, watching a movie in the helmet and in parallel in the torrent downloaded another movie at some point the system went into bsod. It turned out that the torrent to download movies produced an error, re-pumped, this film did not work all the time an error occurs, to check other torrents were downloaded normally. I began to remove your Videos, and it is not removed, pereprobyval special tools to unlock the file undelete, etc., all useless. Khan thought hard disk, broken sector reappeared. Then somehow picked up and turned off the helmet from usb, nedokachany film then retired to normal. What is the relationship between them arose not understand, but there are conflicts in the process.

Here's what I always do. Played, I shut down the computer, disconnect the (HDMI and USB) and put it in a box. I also Windows 10 x64 Pro version, and that's never been to a tick to 1920x1080 itself established! Mystic you some kind of adegrease78. I do not know what it depends on ...

FalloutVR, SkyrimVR

These two games exhibit dynamic resolution.

Disappointing that the other owners Pimax4K nothing written about the magic tick 1920x1080, which you put in PiPlay automatically ... I am here today specifically put the software on your computer at work, with an AMD processor and card Radeon RX Vega and there, too, with no reboot ticks themselves are not put in PiPlay !!!

Spawn nothing anywhere was not put in itself.
Laptops with trimmed and chopped iron is also available:) for repair ... after the other bring "repairmen" and even after the "service" because there is so curtailed all crooked hands, as happened sometimes could not be reconstructed ...
And as to your preferences - this is really nonsense to some and it is not clear. And you immediately to extremes ... "notebooks we have." I know many people with pimaksami - and all are the same (and I among them). So it's something you have not. Render 3 all brakes (Basically all the familiar 1070, 2060, 1080ti 2080ti -. No one, there is no possibility to check)

1976roman @ 22.03.19, 00:38

1070, 2060, 1080ti. 2080ti - no one, there is no possibility to check

Well, here it is the answer! Obviously it all! I repeat - I GTX 1080Ti kata and why - do not brake! When it was the map of 1070, there to render 3 brakes, but I still did not reduce setting, and in the games themselves set medium or low graphics settings, as with a decrease in redneringa PiPlay picture itself becomes worse due to the resolution. And if you just change the game graphics settings, there are disabled any effects, details, texture, etc., but the actual resolution and clarity - saved! And it is most important for VR games. You can make sure in Doom VFR and Hellblade. Now I play 1080Ti with high graphics settings (non-Ultra) and the average shows 45-50 fps, almost everywhere (measured frame rate to makefpsVR).

Sid122 @ 22.03.19, 08:34

and what is the difference with the default that is set? GTR looks like there are these settings not even tried to switch)

You're doing it right! Do not change anything! I also, and everything works fine. Just then there are comrades who are foaming at the mouth to prove that render 3 all things should slow down! At what level in the cards 1080. I am inclined to believe that they have either curtailed graphics card (eg on the laptop) or zasral vindous.

Just who are accustomed to 60 k / s for 30 k / s will not be able to watch.
