Latest update ignores Airlink bitrate setting completely

Since the latest update Airlink runs at 15Mbps and ignores all bitrate settings. This has rendered the interface unusable. Please do not incompetently deploy updates as some of us are actually using these headsets.

  • Really? I got v85.0.0.232.552 seven hours ago and AirLink is working fine at 200 Mbps.

      That would be the way it normally works, yes... but now it just stays at this very low bitrate, I even tried using the debug tool to force it and it just ignores it. Ditto for the in-app menu. (232.552 as well)

      Long live Virtual Desktop I guess.

        Did you restart the service after you put the value in DebugTool?, now that step it's required. Try put 360 mbits for example, then restart the service, then link again and check it.

  • I had the same issue. Check that you have the Encode Bitrate set to 0 in the Debug Tools. Then you can adjust the desired bitrate in the UI settings. If Encode Bitrate is not set to 0, the UI settings will be ignored, and the link speed will stuck around 15 Mbps

      I'm not seeing that behaviour (v85.0.0.232.552).

  • Same problem here makes it unusable artifacts all over the place nothing change even if you change it in oculus tool. After updating it brokes had the same problem before they fixed it in the past and now it's back again after updating it to 2.1.locked at 10mb seriously fixed your stuff.... Seems there are not a lot of people not reporting it and just use the cable or maybe 50 serie prob.also link with cable unstable often hang use a lot of resources hourglass keeps popping up when games are loading asw is broken if you enable it your frames goes from 100 to 50fps no mather what auto force reinstall everything. All happening when microsoft changed maked major changes in hags. But again thank god for having a closed system get your **bleep** together meta regards genuine

  • I have same problems. I use link cable. I had to disabled HAGS. For me it make microstutters in beat saber.

    • Fixed bitrate locked to any value. I can put there even 2000 and nothing happen.
    • artifacts
    • ASW status is unknown and PTW is always enabled.
