Question

POV Video, how does this look with the Rift?

Hi, watching this POV Video on youtube i wonder how this look with
the Stereoscopic Player and output set to Oculus Rift? Does it work at all?
Its no 3D and no Headtracking but just the POV gives a nice feeling when watching
even on a standard 2D Monitor :-)

    I get a bit sick watching vids like that on the rift.. I guess its the lack of head tracking.

    I find that without the distortions, it doesn't display correctly in the Rift at all.

    Maybe with a giant machine forcing your head to look at the same directions xD

    Just pray the video doesn't do a 360. :lol:

    I've watched POV in VR Player to good effect. Set your video projection to cylinder, 120 degree angle and 0.6667 scale. If you want it a bit larger, go for 150 degree angle and 0.833 scale or 180 angel and a 1.0 scale.

    I've always been curious about videos like this or perhaps something made from a stereo-pair of Go-Pros
