I've been trying development with the new Meta Quest Pro and I just haven't been able to figure out passthrough. I tried setting up a project with online tutorials and when I build the scene, the passthrough is black. Even in the sample passthrough scenes that come with Oculus Integration Package, the passthrough looks black.
I'm having exactly the same problem as helensloeb and I feel like I've tried everything. Tested your project with Unity 2021.3.12f1 (seems like you used 2021.3.9f1) but got the same problem.
I'm seeing some artifacts around the edges of objects in that sample (a pixel or two of any random color flickering very fast randomly). Might be a clue but it doesn't show up in screenshots.
helensloeb: A tip if you just want to get somewhere in your MR app is to develop for PC VR, enable passthrough in the Oculus PC app developer settings and run your app through Oculus Link
I was able to run your project on my computer and it worked just fine. I'll make sure to try and set up a different project with the exact same settings you have and see where exactly it differs from what I was doing. Once I have that, I'll come back and explain what exactly was the error.
Thanks mreimer, the last screenshot there made me aware that you have to use the Oculus XR plugin pre-release to get the Quest Pro available as a Target Device. Unfortunately that didn't help.
I did discover though that passthrough is completely broken in all contexts on my device (except Quest Link)! I can't even set a new guardian. The button in settings simply doesn't do anything.
I've been testing using OVR Scene Quick Preview, but apparently this is not supported for security reasons. You have to create a complete build and drag it to your headset in Meta Quest Developer Hub.
Very slow and frustrating way of working in my opinion...
Edit: I take it back. I just discovered I can use "Build And Run" in Unity Build Settings and "ADB over Wi-Fi" in Meta Quest Developer Hub to deploy and test with working passthrough over wifi. I suddenly have an incredibly simple and powerful setup!
The documentation and/or error handling in the SDK could've saved me a lot of wasted time here. Hope someone else can be saved by my comments in the future!
So I had the exact same problem , I followed a tutorial to have a blank scene with passthrough setup, thought I'd done all the settings correctly but when I built and checked on the Quest Pro the feed was always black. I then tried the oculus sample scenes and had the same problem. Turns out some settings have to be updated on the 'passthrough' sample scene provided in the 'SampleFramework/usage' folder. If anyone is still looking for a solution make sure to follow the checklist below... I had this working in 2021.3.3f1 , 2020.3.34f1 and 2022.1.2f1
In Player Settings: - Colour Space should be Linear
- Require ES3.1 and ES3.1 +AEP and ES3.2 all ticked - Set the scripting backend to IL2CPP - Untick ARMv7 and tick ARMV64
In the Scene on the OVRCameraRig:
- the colour gamit was auto set to 'Rift' , change this to 'Quest'
- double check both passthrough boxes are ticked : 'passthrough capability ' under general and 'enable passthrough' under Insight passthrough - go to the CentreEyeAnchor and make sure the background is set to 'Solid colour' , and the colour is pure black and alpha is zero
- the passthrough layer should be set to 'underlay'
after trying the above methods to no avail, I realized that the HDR setting in the Camera game object has to be set to "Off" before getting it to work!
Hopefully this helps any other unfortunate soul debugging this issue 😕
