You seem to be the most prominent source for PSVR2 + PC info, that's worth a sub. Waiting for some VR optician lenses to wear glasses inside the headset and mess with Steam VR settings. First time using VR and it was a shock to have to restart caring about my slight near-sightedness for the first time since high-school. Lot's to take in before Metro: Awakening comes out.
Thank you for saying i need to buy an extension cable and put the dongle in and as far removed from the pc as possible. I will try that tomorrow because i got these tracking issues with the right controller, 10 second drop outs every time. This is a golden tip !!
Im genuinely about to return the PSVR2 and the adapter. Beyond frustrated. My controllers are paired to my computer. I have built in Bluetooth on my AMD X670E (its an Aorus Master board with Intel Bluetooth). Both controllers are fully charged. But they will not stay powered on. Sometimes both will, then one will turn off and the other will stay on, and vice versa. When I open the PSVR2 App, I can never make it past the BT pairing page because it asks me to pair my ALREADY PAIRED controllers. I just straight up cannot use this thing and its essentially a paperweight for me.
Sounds like they're turning off because of your built in bluetooth isn't staying connected and turning the controllers off. Try getting a bluetooth dongle an dit should stay connected. I have the ASRock X670E Pro RS board with bluetooth and it didn't work either. I had to get a stronger bluetooth solution, which I linked in the description. There are also, some in the video I show.
Internal Bluetooth does not have a strong enough signal and/or has too much interference from within the PC. External dongle with an extension cable or PCIe card with antennas seems to fix the problem. I have this exact issue (Sense controllers pairing and losing connection almost instantly) and i'm waiting for my dongle to ship.
@@maegikthegamecat this can be true for some, but may not be true for all. For me, it turns out that the PSVR2 App NEEDS you to go through its steps in order. So I would get to the Bluetooth pairing step and the app wouldn't let me continue because I had already paired the controllers before launching the app. So what I did was removed them from my paired devices, then opened the app, then paired the controllers when the app asked me to. After that I no longer had any issues at all. Controllers stayed connected and tracked perfectly.
I am having lots of issues with adapter. Seems like most of them have something to do with controllers connection. I even managed to start Alyx but (the first balcony scene, wow, looks great) but controllers did not work even though I succesfully completed the setup in the Playstation VR app. So I ordered TP-link UB500.

I installed everything cganged the settings like recommended but still my tracking laggs so when i move it jumps all the time like the tracking stops working for 10ms or so. Anyone else got this and solved it? Its not my room when i use my ps5 i dont have such laggs. Please help me its unuseable this way 🤕
When im setting it up i reach the vr part where i use the controller pointer but then the background is all black and the pointer does not work does anyone know how to fix this ?
The main problem i have is that my pc doesnt detect displayport cable. I connected it to usb C (this port has support for dp) and bought a displayport to c cable with is on standard 1.4. My laptop is acer nitro 5 with rtx3060. Any suggestions?
@MartydudeVR I have 2 display ports. Does it matter if I unplug my second monitor and connect it to that port? Will it detect the port the adapter is connected to and load the game into that? Would I have to enable it in NVIDIA as a second display?
Hey bud in the psvr2 app, i cant get passed when it says to plug in the headset and push the power button. It doesn't give me the option to continue once i power it on. Both the adapter and the headset lights are white at that point BTW. Any suggestions?
When enough games start supporting it, Sony might add the feature. For now no games support eye tracking on PC, because there's almost no other headsets with this feature, on PC.
Cant aee through mine to draw the play area. I can play games fine, but idk, camera isnt working during that setup screen. Also how tf do you adjust height for sitting down?
Hey, I have a question... I was able to set everything up fine, there were no problems at all, but when I'm in steamvr or other games, my fps are extremely low... What can I do? (I have a gaming laptop (MSI Katana 17) with an RTX 4050 and Bluetooth 5.2)
nice, dude! ..any idea on how to use the passthrough inside SteamVR, i mean inside the VR headset? Instead of pressing the button on the headset? with the VR controllers somehow? in the Playstation it says: You can also select the pass-through view from the PS VR2 Quick Settings card in Control Center... But dont know on how to do this in Steam.. If its even possible... Ty!
Thank you for some tips I can try. It's strange, I've succesfully set up the first time, I've been into Stream VR hub but games never launch (Archery VR, Wingman, Republique). I've read on the net that problem already occured with "standard" VR headset. I wanted to try again today by launching Steam in administrative mode, but now SteamVR tells me that "graphics card can't connect to HMD display" -_- I think we are beta testers (even if most of us spend 60€ / $ to buy the adapter).
Cant connect the right controller to the pc even though it worked fine few weeks ago. the left one appears immediately but the right one doesnt even after few hours of trying. Also when i tried to connect the right one to a different pc it worked fine. Please help someone
The signal isn't strong enough. You need a bluetooth adapter. I had the same issue. I had to get a stronger bluetooth solution, which I linked in the description. There are also, some in the video I show that are confirmed to work from PS.
Great setup overview.I was looking for something to help a few folks I know that have issues with one controller or another dropping out. Like, somewhere between a minute or three, tracking is lost. They've followed the guides, moving the bluetooth adapter with a USB extender, away from the desk. Plugging in to USB2.0. Any other suggestions?
@KroyInSpace Thanks! Hmm first thing that comes to mind is something interfering with the signal. Do they have anything else on the desk that emits signal?
im running into a similar issue as you where the pointers didnt appear, have moved my bluetooth adapter but nothing has changed, kinda annoying now as iv been stuck on this for 2 days now :(
You need to press two buttons simultaneously, the rectangular one and the bottom round one, and for at least 5 seconds, maybe longer, until the LED starts blinking. Then you should connect them. Hope this helps.
I'm another frustrated user. Controllers pair fine. PSVR 2 app allows me to click on Next when I power up the headset but then I get a screen telling me to connect my headset. Which I just did. Can't get to the Play Area setup screen. Done everything short of reinstalling Windows which I refuse to do. Grrrrr!
Content creators were flipping their wigs yesterday. Some people were complaining there were too many wires and very complicated. I think some were trying their best not to like it. If you don't like computers and don't like VR. Why go through the trouble in the first place except to bash the thing. Haters are going to hate. The biggest problems people had was with the dongles. (I did not have that problem Mine is built in and updated) I think the best thing they can do from what I heard is update all Drivers and use the Recommended TP UB500 one, that seemed to be the more successful one. Some people had to use a cabled extender to bring it to the front of their computer. Maybe they had interference from other devices in the vicinity? Well, mine worked perfect and do recommend it. I think this for the time being will replace my aging Valve Index. Well at least until the Valve Deckard comes out (if Ever)
Yeah it was rough for a lot of new PCVR guys. I feel for them. This is a good learning experience though. PCVR is a lot of tinkering. They would cry if they had to use some of the other VR Companies software / hmd launchers 😂
I'm cringing watching all the bad advice about Bluetooth flying around! The problem isn't really Sony or the PC adapter. Rather it's that a lot of people have no idea how Bluetooth works or how to set it up properly. In many cases, buying a USB Bluetooth dongle is not the best solution. If your motherboard has built-in Bluetooth, set it up properly and update its drivers first. Many people have no idea they need to plug in antennas!
i can't get through the bluetooth controller pairing part for some reason. both controllers are paired to my pc but it just doesn't let me go to the next step.

@@MartydudeVR Actually I solved it. The issue was that the PSVR2 app wants you to pair the controllers from within the app itself, so when I already had them paired, it couldn't go through that process if that makes sense. I removed the pairing and then went through the steps in the app and when it asked me to pair them I clicked on the prompt which opened my Bluetooth devices panel in windows. From there I paired them instantly and now it works just fine!
@@d3adshot886 OK I did something that worked for me. Delete the psvr2 app and the steam vr app and then when both finish downloading open the psvr2 app and it should work
My PC's bluetooth doesn't see controllers for some reason. I press share + ps buttons until it's blinking. Controllers are charged, PS5 turned off. I have Bluetooth 5.2 with the latest drivers. And I have latest drivers on controllers too. But my PC doesn't recognize them, even though they work fine on PS5, and my PC can recognize other Bluetooth devices.

My SteamVR app doesnt work, sometimes it doesnt even say my headset is connected at all, and when it does say its connected, it just pops up with another error, telling me to try different ports, just frustrating
I believe for AMD GPU users that the virtual link port for 7000 series gpus are dependent on the board partner. My Asrock 7900 XT does not have the port but I've seen some people do have them. Not sure about 6000 series though
I have the reference - AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX with Type-C(1), DisplayPort(2) & HDMI(1). Ironically I can get video signal to work off the GPU type-C Port but I can't get the headset to calibrate or work properly with controllers. Seems to be a software glitch. iVRy drivers work for direct type-C GPU video signal but I'm stuck with both Sony and iVRy drivers not working to calibrate controllers or set play space. Seems like this should be the GPU that works the best, but it seems to be the worst. Tried a couple of Nvidia GPU. The Nvidia 4090 & 4060 Ti GPU both work with the Sony drivers and just limited buggy problems. Can't seem to find any AMD Magic for Sony drivers even using the Sony PSVR2 PC Adapter instead of type -C. FYI - I'm not having any issues with Bluetooth the controllers. I'm using computers' motherboard Bluetooth no problem.
I have a USBc on my mobo graphics, not my GPU. Was HOPING that would work but sadly, no dice. Guess I'm waiting for the adapter to come back in stock...
Once I get past the Bluetooth controller pairing stuff, the screen wants to load the next step but then goes black. Then I get a steam VR error message that says VRInitError_IPC_CompositorConnectedFailed. Anyone know what this means? I'm pc illiterate 😅
@@MartydudeVR I tried that but still nothing. Press the Playstation vr app, shows running that just stops and returns to launch button. Pulling my hair out after 3 days lol
@@tonyf9076 I needed to activate the Igpu in the bios to make it work. Another way is to delete the igpu drivers, but delete them proparly or else it wont work. i used DDU to delete the igpu driver.
Thanks for the video, the problem I have is that the play area does not appear when I am setting it up, so I cannot set the play area space or the height. Can you help me with this? Thank you. EDIT: It only shows a black screen btw nothing else
I had controller tracking issues and I have onboard bluetooth/wifi antennas coming out from the back of my PC. I had to turn my PC around and so the antennas were facing me. That fixed most of the issue, but its not perfect.
If the onboard Bluetooth is working, but you're just not getting good enough reception from the antenna situation, be aware that you can buy different antennas or antennas with longer pigtails. Using a USB Bluetooth adapter is not actually a great solution in this scenario because it will _replace_ your built-in Bluetooth (Windows will only handle one) with a smaller unit that likely has less range.
@@SargonDragon Thanks, I also researched about it after the original comment. I'm planning to either get longer antennas or antennas with a stand that connects to the PC via extension cables.
@@AirsoftDaddy Be advised that each additional connector on an antenna reduces signal strength by at least half (3db). So you really want to avoid any sort of extension that puts more connectors on the chain unless it's some sort of active powered amplifier.
hmmmm strange... My steam App will start for a few seconds and stops working without any error. No further instructions. Headset is turned on. All i see is a symbol that tells me to put it off.
7:31 this is as far as I get in the setup. No printer showing. I have a Bluetooth adapter attached to an extension cable, not sure how to fix this issue
@MartydudeVR heard the recommended Bluetooth adapters weren't working so well (tplink specifically) grabbed a different brand, went to the website for drivers and its all shut down [page not found 😢] . So I ordered the Asus bt500 .. Hopefully that'll work better
No Pointer* showing, (not printer) I get as far as the setup telling me to put the headset on, and hit next with the controllers, and there's no pointer coming from the controllers
@@AndrewEhrenreich did you figure it out? having the same probleam over here . tried 5 different adapters and 2 different headsets, updated bios and all drivers. no luck
@madsimilius7057 technically.. yes. I have it all up and working. I wiped my whole computer and did a fresh reinstall of windows. After that, everything installed and ran perfectly. Not an ideal solution.. maybe before resorting to that, maybe try removing steam and reinstalling.. If it's a Bluetooth issue, I had tried 3 adapters, currently using the Asus bt500.
Fuck sony for how they handled this product. The headset is fine, but the controller experience is the most frustrating tech experience i have ever had. Would it really be that hard to charge a little extra and have a standardized Bluetooth adapter built into the pc adapter?
Looked up your issue and found this thread: www.reddit.com/r/SteamVR/comments/18o87pi/steamvr_error_109_not_initialized/? Its weird random issue for Steamvr from what I've been seeing
Yes that's the scan feature for PC. Idk if you have PS5 but it maps your room on console. Just make sure you have decent lighting then after you look around for a sec, it should scan complete
@@MartydudeVR My on board one, I managed to get it to work but then I couldn't get it past the psvr2 headset turn on setup lol. I'm going to buy one of the recommended adapters and see if this will fix my issue. Fingers crossed.
@MartydudeVR It doesn't work. I've reset the controllers. Tried everything. It doesn't work, and I believe people who say it does are liars. You have to be lying. Start a game, close it, and play another without doing any troubleshooting. You can't.

I have a USBc on my mobo graphics, not my GPU. Was HOPING that would work but sadly, no dice. Guess I'm waiting for the adapter to come back in stock...
Oof 😭
"it's a better tutorial than on the PS5" It's literally the same tutorial on the PS5 my man lol. Good video though!
Your right. I get caught up in hype sometimes haha
I get stuck on the screen "To use this app connect and turn on your playstation VR 2"
Once I get past the Bluetooth controller pairing stuff, the screen wants to load the next step but then goes black. Then I get a steam VR error message that says VRInitError_IPC_CompositorConnectedFailed. Anyone know what this means? I'm pc illiterate 😅
Make sure your graphic drivers are updated! That may fix it and if not then definitely try a SteamVR reinstall
@MartydudeVR Thanks man! I'll try both of those
Don't know what I am doing wrong but my PSVR2 Steam App just will not load/run.
Try starting SteamVR first. If that doesn't work , uninstall the PSVR2 app -> update Graphics drivers -> then reinstall
@@MartydudeVR I tried that but still nothing. Press the Playstation vr app, shows running that just stops and returns to launch button. Pulling my hair out after 3 days lol
@@tonyf9076 I needed to activate the Igpu in the bios to make it work. Another way is to delete the igpu drivers, but delete them proparly or else it wont work. i used DDU to delete the igpu driver.
@@tonyf9076 I had the same issue, found solution on steam community forum for PSVR2 app.
80 - 144 Hz? i have just 90 or 120. why did you have more options?
I have other PCVR headsets so I think it showed more for me. PSVR2 def is 90 & 120 though
@@MartydudeVR ahh okay. Thanks
Mine controllers are blinking but they wont pup up at the bluetooth screen do you maybe know why?
Do you have on board Bluetooth?
Thanks for the video, the problem I have is that the play area does not appear when I am setting it up, so I cannot set the play area space or the height. Can you help me with this? Thank you.
EDIT: It only shows a black screen btw nothing else
Did you update your drivers?
@@MartydudeVR which drivers?
Pluga o adaptador Bluethoth na USB 3.0 ( A AZUL)@@muwiomkamien7544
I had controller tracking issues and I have onboard bluetooth/wifi antennas coming out from the back of my PC. I had to turn my PC around and so the antennas were facing me. That fixed most of the issue, but its not perfect.
Yeah you may have to get a b-tooth adapter with a usb extender
If the onboard Bluetooth is working, but you're just not getting good enough reception from the antenna situation, be aware that you can buy different antennas or antennas with longer pigtails.
Using a USB Bluetooth adapter is not actually a great solution in this scenario because it will _replace_ your built-in Bluetooth (Windows will only handle one) with a smaller unit that likely has less range.
@@SargonDragon Thanks, I also researched about it after the original comment. I'm planning to either get longer antennas or antennas with a stand that connects to the PC via extension cables.
@@AirsoftDaddy Be advised that each additional connector on an antenna reduces signal strength by at least half (3db). So you really want to avoid any sort of extension that puts more connectors on the chain unless it's some sort of active powered amplifier.
hmmmm strange... My steam App will start for a few seconds and stops working without any error. No further instructions. Headset is turned on. All i see is a symbol that tells me to put it off.
Im waiting to get this thing
makes this whole deal cost 100 dollars after BT adapter, USB extenson cable and a 1.4 displayport cable.. jeez. F Sony.
Honestly. It is pretty crazy they didn't add a Bluetooth into the damn thing
my right controller just can't connect to bluetooth hence can't get to room scan.
no issues for me i have a good motherboard with built in wifi 6 and bluetooth 5 no issues
7:31 this is as far as I get in the setup. No printer showing. I have a Bluetooth adapter attached to an extension cable, not sure how to fix this issue
No printer showing? Hmm. The fix was me was to get a bluetooth add in but have you updated graphic and bluetooth drivers?
@MartydudeVR heard the recommended Bluetooth adapters weren't working so well (tplink specifically) grabbed a different brand, went to the website for drivers and its all shut down [page not found 😢] . So I ordered the Asus bt500 .. Hopefully that'll work better
No Pointer* showing, (not printer) I get as far as the setup telling me to put the headset on, and hit next with the controllers, and there's no pointer coming from the controllers
@@AndrewEhrenreich did you figure it out? having the same probleam over here . tried 5 different adapters and 2 different headsets, updated bios and all drivers. no luck
@madsimilius7057 technically.. yes. I have it all up and working. I wiped my whole computer and did a fresh reinstall of windows.
After that, everything installed and ran perfectly. Not an ideal solution.. maybe before resorting to that, maybe try removing steam and reinstalling..
If it's a Bluetooth issue, I had tried 3 adapters, currently using the Asus bt500.
The is no motion smoothing in my settings 🤔
Error 109 for me can't get it working
theres no motion Smoothing cuz im using vr quest 3 and im also using steamvr
Wait... What? Motion smoothing is a SteamVR feature than can be enabled with any headset connected
@@MartydudeVR but its not there
@@MartydudeVR is there a way to get motion smoothing on steamvr?
my function button wont move on
Fuck sony for how they handled this product. The headset is fine, but the controller experience is the most frustrating tech experience i have ever had. Would it really be that hard to charge a little extra and have a standardized Bluetooth adapter built into the pc adapter?
SteamVR pops up ERROR CODE 109 when I try to prepare my PSVR2. What is going on.. Anybody?
Looked up your issue and found this thread:
www.reddit.com/r/SteamVR/comments/18o87pi/steamvr_error_109_not_initialized/?
Its weird random issue for Steamvr from what I've been seeing
@@MartydudeVR Thanks for your answer. Fix that helped my problem was actually clean nvidia drivers update.
@@jusbanovitz nice! Happy gaming
When I scan my room I can see shit and it shows and orange color when I look around ?
Yes that's the scan feature for PC. Idk if you have PS5 but it maps your room on console. Just make sure you have decent lighting then after you look around for a sec, it should scan complete
Set up appears on computer screen but not on VR headset..oh well have to return I guess
Did you update graphics drivers / get correct Display Port cable?
Both controllers will conntect then the right will dissconnect can't get past the controller set up screen so fustriating
Hmmm 🤔 What Bluetooth are you using?
@@MartydudeVR My on board one, I managed to get it to work but then I couldn't get it past the psvr2 headset turn on setup lol.
I'm going to buy one of the recommended adapters and see if this will fix my issue. Fingers crossed.
@ObliviousJohno Definitely should try that. Also you may need a usb extender but def test it first.
First comment
I cant get mine to work but it works on my wifes pc which is the exact same specs 😂 fuck
Lmao wtf. That's weird. How is it not working? Is it controller tracking or something
@@MartydudeVR it doesnt open steamvr correctly so i cannot get passed the point to make my playspace
@Jttd234 Hmmmm. Try reinstalling SteamVR. That's a weird bug
I becoming Steam errors "109"
Have you considered returning the damn thing and never talking about it again? Thing is trash
@St4rTr3v1Ut10n bro what do you need help with? This is like the second comment
@MartydudeVR It doesn't work. I've reset the controllers. Tried everything. It doesn't work, and I believe people who say it does are liars. You have to be lying. Start a game, close it, and play another without doing any troubleshooting. You can't.
Anyone know how to turn OFF screen mirroring?
