    TH-cam still has compression even in 4K is less than 8K. For original quality we recommend exam the footages directly inside your Apple Vision Pro or Meta Quest 3. We provided BOTH spatial video and 180 immersive video for download. Download links are in here: www.patreon.com/HughHouFilm - After watching in HMD, comment and let us know what you think. The Spatial Video is pretty good 👍🏻

    It would be really interesting to see a comparison between the R5C+RF5.2 and R7+RFS3.9 with both source videos being enhanced with tools like Topaz and the 4K from the R7 upscaled to 8K. We use Topaz with R5C 8K material to get an acceptable quality and detail not using any filters from the EOS Utility software, which are really crap.

    • @hughhou
      @hughhou  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      This one does not have any enhancement but yes, I will show the enhancement in my upcoming tutorial. Sharper the base image, lesser compression, higher bit-depther, the easier time Topaz will have. This setup does check all the boxes. But there is a combination models that work better or worse. I will go into details in my tutorial sereis. Cheers!

    • @briankensington8459
      @briankensington8459 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think that unless that add two identical lenses at 60-65 mm separation, it’s still going to be whelming. I have tried watching spatial videos from my 15 pro on my quest 3, and by far the most annoying thing is that one eye is noticeably more blurry.
      IMO they should have two 8k60fps capable ultrawide lenses 60 mm apart, with the 2nd lens at the bottom of the phone.
      4k is too blurry at 180, though if they want to keep their smaller spatial video fob window I guess it’s ok.

    • @hughhou
      @hughhou  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      So there is 2 download links - there is one for Moonplayer but also for Meta Quest native high quality playback. And there is one is MV-HEVC for SpatialGen, Kandao XR or the "future" Apple native player for playback. Apple and Meta use different format. That is why I provide both for download. For that one is MV-HEVC - only native Apple codec can playback but it is hardware accelerated and in general way higher quality than the other way. Not this camera as it is only 4K so does not really matter.

    Hi Hugh, I'm a big fan of your channel! I have a technical question for you if you don't mind. I create 3D 360 and 180 VR videos with Blender animation software. I've uploaded some of these videos to TH-cam awhile ago (last year or more) but now when I try uploading 180 3D VR videos (mp4) they upload but when TH-cam tries to process them it fails. I mainly export my videos from After Effects and in the H264 properties I check VR and 180 by 180 and side by side. I have also tried injecting VR metadata with two different Spatial injectors (for 180VR) I've found but nothing seems to work. When you try to google this kind of thing you really only get info from 2-3 years ago. It's very frustrating! Can you shed some light on why this isn't working (for me) all of a sudden. Did something at TH-cam change? Maybe the metadata format changed? I really want to start creating more 180 VR content on my channel but this problem has made it come to a screeching halt. Thanks in advance!

    • @hughhou
      @hughhou  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I don't think the TH-cam metadata has changed but maybe After Effects changed. What I will suggest is make sure your file is 2 by 1 ratio. Then proper VR180 side by side format. Then render it from After Effects in PRORES and render H.265 / HEVC from Premiere (if you have AE, you should have PR). In Premiere, inject Side by side, VR 180 metadata there. As Premiere is the best metadata injector and work with both Meta Quest and TH-cam VR. So you won't go wrong there - I have been using it including this video and work like magic. After Effects has lots of change lately and I won't trust Adobe on that lol. PR every VR editors are using it so they can not mess up .

    The statement about the new camera is very intriguing. We are waiting for further information.
    A small note - it seems to me that it takes the viewer some time to fully perceive the stereo effect of the picture. Therefore, a rapidly changing image reduces the impression. I think that time-lapse shooting is not entirely suitable for such a video.

The A7C would not have had enough resolution to use this stereo fisheye lens. R7 barely has enough. The 3.9mm fisheye achieves 21 pixels/degree (ppd) in photo mode and in video only 11.6!.
