Glad it helped. Sorry if it went fast at parts

True, good catch. I was juggling a lot of settings and forgot

Bruh, what?

@@bc_labs First of all way to fast, Second: no calibration, Third: No explain if firmware should be updated. When you have 2 steppermotors on one uart ypu have to raise the power from 500mA to like 7-850mA. SO m8 when you do a video do it right or skip it. Have in mind there is a lot of people who dont know how things working with 3D printing and they looking for help. So its important too show them the right way.

@PAB-Elektronik firmware change not needed. It splits the signal from the single stepper. Calibration to level it out, good point. Although unless a person does an egregious job, you could overcome that with a bed level. But tramming the frame to the carriage prior to leveling the bed yields a better experience. I did not have to modify the current for this to work. I only had that issue on a previous printer that relied on a ramps board and had pretty subpar steppers. Each of the coils inside the stepper. Uarts for communication over serial, to a driver potential. I appreciate you commenting, despite the fairly rude demeanor. I am always experimenting with video styling to try and improve the experience.

Really? Is yours the original B2 model or the S3 model of batteries? I'm shocked with the issues you're having but I wonder if they changed up the magnets they're using after I got mine. Are you able to figure out there's a certain angle that you can tilt it at orientation you can rotate it to that stops this issue? I would love to make a remix of it to make it work for other people who are having this issue

Oh wow, that really stinks! Mine is just under -6, so I was lucky I guess

Not now, new app allows direct link to windows. Just dropped new video for it

I am on the ptc, so I get the update before anybody else does. The downside with being on the PTC is if you ever want to go back to the regular stable Channel you have to factory reset your headset. If that isn't a big deal to you, you can switch over to the PTC and should get access pretty much within a few hours. Otherwise you can wait a little bit longer. It usually takes up to two or three weeks for to roll out to all headsets and I believe it hit the stable Channel a week or two ago

It looks like if I'm understanding correctly, they might have pulled this update for a lot of users because it was causing some corruption for some headsets, and they're trying to figure out the fix. So even switching to the PTC might not get you the update, and if it does it still might risk corruption on update. I'll try to respond here and possibly put up a video updating everybody about it because this is a pretty big issue that they're trying to sort out, and how quickly, and completely they respond matters.

I would imagine there is some slight reduction, but I don't have a good mechanism of measuring that. If you already wear glasses, the impact should be similar, if not less pronounced, since you are not cutting off sections of the screen based on your glass frames.

The ones I reviewed you definitely need the beam to do this. I actually have a video coming soonish with the beam Pro showing off these glasses with them. There is a version of Viture glasses, and I believe the Xreal 2 ultras allow you to have three degree of Freedom stationary displays without the beam Pro or similar. I would have to confirm that last point but almost all smart glasses at this point have very limited capability without the extra pods, as the extra Computing is necessary for screens that are not full size in front of you at all times

Although technically the total resolution of the quest 3 is at 4K, it's really 2K per eye, so the best resolution you're going to experience is effectively 2K with a potential of slightly better depending on your Wi-Fi and your configuration because it's possible to Supersample. I imagine though most people are going to experience something between 1080 and 2 K depending on the limitations imposed by their Wi-Fi and xcloud itself

How much fps do u get in fortnite​@@bc_labs

There's actually a very recent version if you're on v72, and turn on an experimental option you can then install the Windows app from the store. This is a modification of the remote desktop app which allows you to use up to three screens and pair with the computer via QR code. But like you said it still doesn't allow you to send mouse or keyboard commands from the headset which seems kind of short sighted I haven't found an option to turn this on so I'm assuming it's not supported yet. It's really intended for using your quest exclusively as a display if you're within range of a computer. So it's not entirely useless but it's definitely not as powerful as virtual desktop, etc

@@bc_labs Thanks. I'm still using v71, but I have the Windows app and did the multiple displays. It's still hardly usable, especially with hand tracking. I was trying it with my language study-having one screen for the program and another for ChatGPT and switching between the two. But in the end, I just went back to my regular laptop screen. Next year, I want to buy the XReal One glasses. I think they will be easier to use, at least not so heavy on my head.

I got a dock that charges the controller. It works great, and it's like normally 50 bucks but I got it for 10 at a Bargain Bin store

Remote desktop has gotten a lot better in the most recent update and I actually have a video being edited right now about it. Unfortunately it still doesn't seem to pass the keyboard and mouse through or at some hidden setting. I think that's the only thing keeping it from being better than workrooms at this point

@@bc_labs Hi sir, do you know if its possible to access my pc through my quest 3 without being physically in front of my PC?, like using my home PC from my quest 3 at office

@alonsogarrote8898 virtual desktop and I believe immersed both have an option to Route through their servers / DNS to get access to your computer from anywhere. As long as your office doesn't have a firewall blocking it it should be possible. There will be some delay though because your routing through many more layers of network. I have had some success doing some of this in the past

That's a great deal. I didn't know you could even order them from AliExpress with your prescription.

It can be uncomfortable for some people I always recommend trying to find the right head strap and or battery pack for counterbalance. I really just wish that except for the screens and the lenses basically, to make the headset way like I don't know 150 200 g and let you put the rest in your pocket. I have read rumors that that's on the horizon but I'll believe it when I see it

I would imagine it's possible but I've always had issues with drivers for DualShock no matter what device. Unfortunately I don't have one to test

@ no problem and appreciate your reply

Flexible Spending Account from medical insurance. It's optional money set aside for health related purchases.

This was the case before. It is now possible to render the game in the HMD for VR native, from Godot on Quest

I could last time but it's been a while since I used it. Luckily my coworker is letting me borrow his unit again with a Beam Pro this week so I'm hoping to get a video up on that.

@bc_labs Awesome... I was thinking about using it for coding... I have seen tons of videos but no one has mentioned if works for this case - reading and editing text or code... that would be cool... I'm waiting for it.

Awesome... I'm waiting for it.. I was interested if I can use them for coding... I have seen tons of videos but none of them describes if it works for text or code editing.

ur wifi is bad

@DarkGamingJMYT1 Fiber, 1000mbit/s, Wifi 6

Sure, but passthrough was lacking, as well as resolution vs Q3. You are right Q3 is more comfortable than Q2, though.

@@bc_labs True, I never bothered with the passthrough feature. I knew how bad it was. 🤣 It was perfectly fine with me to be completely disconnected with reality for a time. Honestly, does the scenery around your computer beat virtual reality? Mine's not too bad, but I prefer the fantasy. I might have to upgrade to Q3 someday, but at the moment, I can't justify the expense.

A) It doesn't melt at the charge port except for device failures B) With a great strap it won't feel nearly so uncomfortable C) the point of this video is about where the tech Is at. Its come a long way, but as mentionedby you, there are limitations. Also, it's 1 year old and I've been intending a followup with updated info. This was first impressions

I detected no such distraction. Go get your ears checked out for tinnitus, get a life or just embrace how you entered the world in the first place, Einstein. 🤣 I can just imagine being a passenger in a car with you, constant complaining about leaves falling, people driving the speed limit, emergency sirens in the distance, radio station commercials. Oh, and have mercy on us all if a sudden gust of wind affects your gas mileage. 😱🤣

Steam link or virtual desktop

Steam link is free and a little less highly optimized, but it still works really well for most people

@@bc_labs thanks, I'll check it out!

@@bc_labs OK thanks, I'm checking out Steam Link now!

Yeah, that's an issue with recording but it's not a huge deal for me.

I have actually not directly used the sdk, I've only used it in the scope of Godot. They wrapped a lot of SDK features and functions so not sure what is standard and what isn't. I will be cooped up more in the winter time and plan to do more development via Godot, and possibly Flutter (if I can figure out any awkward compatability points there)

I would like to do some tests to confirm that the weight balance and fitment is similar to the Quest 2, compared to the Quest 3s. It sure feels like it although maybe even a little bit better fitted. I do have a harder time getting the ipd to feel right though because I fall between settings. I tend to agree that I think the Quest 2 and the quest 3s feel slightly better when you first put it on, but I feel like they start to hurt to wear them after a longer period of time, before the quest 3 does. Getting a non- stock face interface and strap does help though

@@bc_labs It could be down to how my face is structured but i much prefer the weight on the front of the headset nearer the front or maybe its just how i can put it on lol ( ive had elite straps for both quest 2 and 3 ) i still think the quest 2 is most comfy. I do agree though there is less strain on your face on the quest 3 atleast in the long term vs the quest 2

AR on VR headsets really is for development of the ecosystem as a whole. For HMDs and future glasses. I think AR on headsets is a middle point where it's not the "end goal" but still can be useful for productivity in a pinch. Especially since the Quest is basically a computer running android. I agree with some of the benefits of a headset that has only lenses and screens, but I would still like an optional fob/pod to run it from my pocket or mounted to the back, rather than connected to a PC. But both pc and mobile cpu options are possible with the idea you mention. Plus it allows the display and lenses to be upgraded individually. Just have a displayport and or similar to the pod, and pass tracking data over a second usb or Bluetooth connection from the HMD. But make it more modular.

You can use glasses, this is just a better experience

What? 😂 So you expect Meta to ship all of their headsets with all possible prescription lenses?

Not sure if these do, but VR rock also offers subscription lenses and you can upgrade to included blue light protection and anti lens flare.

AFAIK, yes. I don't pay for Gamepass so I haven't tested

@@bc_labs so I can play cod and other games without gamepass
