you just need a video player app,

Try vrplayer. They got support for dk2 tracking since yesterday.

And vr player can playback 3d movie files.

ive tried 3d films in VLC (side by side) but they don't look right, kinda like you can only see the middle of the film.

to be honest I dont think its worth getting a 3D tv. atleast with the dev kit 2 you have ll kinds of options and possibly a VR cinema down the road

Yo have to set up the Programm to what you what the Picture to be....

how do you even get the vrplayer to work on the dk2?


Start up and run the rift in extendet mode (not Direct).... Copy over the DK2 Headtraking files...

And you have to adjust the Chromatic Colors for the Lenses.

Just see the VRplayer Thread here on Board.

I would like to know what he quality is like when watching movies in the Dev Kit 2? If it's anything like the quality in the DevKit 1 then I won't be watching them because they looked awful. Is the quality as good as watching them on a television now?

Haha not even close, you can still see the pixels in the DK2 but they're just smaller than before. We're gonna need atleast 4-8K screens for it to look "as good as on a television".
