PTC v49 Release Megathread

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest and Quest 2 v49 is starting to roll out. Meta Quest Pro is not included in the PTC at this time. Let's use this thread for collecting feedback on it. Share your impressions and let us know if you see any issues. Please make sure to also send in bug reports along with posting here if you notice anything going wrong.

 

Thanks to everyone testing out PTC and sharing your feedback! We appreciate your help testing out the core functionality of software as we develop!

This did start rolling out last week, I was out of the office so this post is delayed. My apologies!

    I need this update urgently for my Quest 2, as on v47 the Quest Pro Controllers are not working. The initial update after pairing the controllers is stuck on 0%. I can't use the new controllers at all, they do not work on v47

    Ryanality Any chance you can add my Quest 2 Serial number (on my Meta account) to the PTC ? I can not sign up myself from within the Meta Android App.

    Thanks.

      Same.  My pro controllers are useless until I get v49.

        Same, pro controllers worthless… why can’t I just get v49 already? Is over a week later after this announcement

          I have two things I would like to see addressed. The first issue is that I am unable to turn off AA while in the Oculus dashboard. I can select the option while receiving audio feedback but the setting remains on. 

          The second is the seemingly quiet lack of support for my system components. I get the "Your computer doesn't meet the updated minimum specifications" banner at the top of the window each time I open. 

          Not sure if these two issues could cause this but I have experienced numerous disconnects from the headset while wired that look like the software freezing in game. Hitting the oculus button and disconnecting from link then reconnecting will resolve the issue.

            Seems  like V49 broke Airlink for me.

            I got a Vega56 AMD Card and the latest drivers for that. 

            When I open Airlink, doesn't matter if set to dynamic bitrate or static, the video feed starts to glet blocky and artifacty every few minutes. As if the encoder bitrate starts to drop.

            When I went out of the Beta mode and got V47.1 back on my computer the issues went away.

            Now that V49 is properly out I again have the issues because the App autoupdated.

             

            Is there a way to download an older version of the Desktop Client? Also could you please fix this ?

                I got PC App (PTC) Version 50.0.0.137.257 now. Stuttering problem since v46 was solved. It's good. But wait, home button on Dash was gone, auto home launch option in PC app was gone. 🤔

                  Same for me: v50 the stability is fantastic, but I couldn’t find a way to return to the home after opening another app.
