How to display something different on monitor and headset?

Anyone have an answer on this? Is it even possible?

Unity 5.3 supports this. Just make a Camera and set "Stereo Eye" to "None (Main Display)".

thank you, much appreciated.

I have managed to achieve this, but also had to turn off mirroring via code to get my secondary camera to display on the screen. Changing depth had no effect, as the HMD camera would always appear on top.

I am now however having an issue where the rendered scene of my secondary camera (being displayed on screen) is stretched horizontally, nothing I do seems to alter this.

Has anyone else experienced this, or knows how to resolve please?

You can reproduce this, by creating a simple scene, introducing a second camera, configuring as per the instructions in this post and turning on VR support in the player settings.

I had this issue and actually posted about it here, it turned about to be a bug from Unity and it not preserving the correct aspect ratio. Updating to the latest version (Unity 5.3.2p1) fixes it. :D

Great news, thanks for this, I will update tonight and this will hopefully be fixed!

I've just checked, and I have the latest version 5.3.2p1 (5.3.2f1 as the shortcut says), but I still get a stretched view like the following onscreen. Did you have to do anything else to get this working?

Are you sure? I believe 5.3.2p1 is different than 5.3.2f1 (My shortcut says p1 and not f1). I have it working perfectly from my side. Are you using the following code to stop the mirroring?

	IEnumerator Start ()
	{
		yield return new WaitForEndOfFrame ();
		UnityEngine.VR.VRSettings.showDeviceView = false;
	}

Note: in case you are not aware, p1 refers to patch no.1 for that Unity version. I got it from here:

Yeah I'm using that setting, (minus the yield return portion though, is this best practice? I'm still very new :) )

Pretty sure I'm on the latest patch, I've raised a thread over at the unity forums and they've suggested I need to also reset the FOV, I've not tried this yet, but I'm hopeful! Strange how you've not needed to do this though.

To be honest, I found the code snippet while I was looking for a way to stop the mirroring. I believe it was to stop builds crashing at startup or something. But in the editor it works perfectly.

This is quite a strange case. I just can't comprehend why it works perfectly with me and not with you. I did not change the FOV or anything. I even just created a new project and only added that code I added earlier with some objects. The result remained proper and no stretching occurred. If possible, can you upload your project? I'd like to see if it somehow differs when I run it (which it shouldn't).
