    Vive Streaming Hub 1.5.11 SteamVR connectivity issue

    in VIVE XR Elite

    I've also tried to uninstall and reinstall SteamVR, which did not fix anything.  When launching SteamVR, it immediately says Headset Not Detected, whereas before the streaming hub update it would say something like the headset is in standby mode and use it to wake it up.

    What if you launch the steamVR from your headset's pc library? any good?

    Hey!

    hope you're still around.

    This problem has been bugging me since i've got my VP2 in 22.
    Neither the HTC Support, nor the Steam Support seem to have any interest in solving or even acknowledging this and the VP2 is seemingly abandoned anyways, as you can tell from the post frequency here.

    So i've been tracing the problem down myself with "process monitor" to get an idea whats happening at all when closing the vive console/steamvr.

    I need to investigate further, but for now it seems that the problems are caused by different writing behaviour for shaders with both programs involved and on top the excessive logging behaviour of the Vive Console.
     

    When i delete everything in (just skip when a file is in use, delete everything else):

    Logs:

    C:\ProgramData\HTC\ViveSoftware\ViveVRRuntime\logs
    C:\ProgramData\HTC\ViveSoftware\WaveConsole\Log

    Shaders:
    C:\Users\<yourwindowsaccountname>\AppData\Local\D3DSCache
    C:\Users\<yourwindowsaccountname>\AppData\LocalLow\NVIDIA\PerDriverVersion\DXCache

    it succeeds in 8/10 cases to successfully quit VR without a crash.
    The problem is seemingly that Vive Console writes to one, SteamVR to the other shader cache and the shaders get corrupted for an unknown reason when quitting VR.

    You can try this without any harm, shader caches get rebuild anyways when starting a game.

     

    These aren't my final results of the problem, but for me valid workaround to get some peace when using this otherwise really gread VR Headset.
    Got a shortcut for this on my Stream Deck and i'm going to code a little tool for this.
    When i can find more, i will share this here, if permitted. 🙂

     

    Just wondering, do you use the vive console on SteamVR or the vive one.

    Hello,

    I have a Netgear Orbi 970 wifi 7-router that fully supports 6E and I have devices like my laptop that will connect to it with 6Ghz but the Vive will only connect to 5Ghz. It works okay with 5Ghz but I'm sure the bitrate could be much better with 6E. I'm 10-feet line of sight to the Netgear Orbi. The laptop is connected by ethernet while I'm using the Vive. All software is up to date.

    Any thoughts on how to get 6E to work?

    Thanks,

    John

     

    Would a Thunderbolt usb-c card be able to supply more power than the device consumes?

    Currently, even if it's plugged in another port the battery goes down while using it, only going up when turned off, so... would it? (ps. why is 's l o t' not allowed?! What absolute nonsense htc is...)

    The website on VIVE did mark that : *VIVE XR Glasses require an alternate power source with 30W USB Power Delivery or above, such as an HTC USB (30W) Power Adapter

    I guess you need to find something that can give up to 30W at leaset

    Any chance you deselect the compatibility mode in the vive streaming console setting?

    Hello, 

    We experienced issues with Vive Business Streaming on one of our test PCs after this update. 

    We're using a Vive Focus 3 with a Wi-Fi 6E streaming connection. 

    The issue is as follows: when a headset is connected to Vive Business Streaming, the HTC Vive Focus 3 controllers are not recognized on this PC. 

    We have connected two different headsets and reproduced the issue each time. By connecting these headsets to a different PC through Vive Business Streaming (same version, same settings), the controllers are correctly recognized (vive_cosmos_controllers) and usable. 

    We've uninstalled Steam, SteamVR, updated the controllers and headset, restarted the computer, but nothing works. 

    Do you have any tips?

    Thanks in advance,

    XR Elite Comfort Hacks?

    The best comfort "hack" I know of is buying the brand new Mixed Reality Face plate. I just got it yesterday and it is vastly more comfortable than the original VR Face gasket that it came with. I could probably wear the MR Face plate all day without an issue. It even works in glasses mode without the battery pack attached, and while it does seem like it could slip off your face without the battery support behind your head, it stays on fine for normal VR use. For MR use at my desk, I might just put an eye glass strap on the ear pieces so if it does slip it won't fall. I could then hop out of MR and the real world, where I need to put my glass back on, very easily. 

    My original face gasket never really stayed on properly. It magnetically attaches but it doesn't seem to click into anything. If the headset shifts up or down at all the original gasket slips off it's magnetic mounts. I really hope that they make a new VR gasket design based on the MR version. In the meantime, I might try and make a little shroud to fit around the MR gasket for more comfortable VR use. 

    For the original gasket, I saw a video they released. I managed to clip on my gasket with the tips they provided. Maybe go give it a try if you still want to use the original one.

     

    Battery cradle not charging

    I am having the same issue. I haven't been able to play for a few months. System turns on, Battery said 91% then dropped to 50%. Will not show charging even though the cables do charge the controllers. It will not charge and the light does not come on. Seems to be a big problems with the battery cradles.

    What version are you in?

    Did you try rebooting the device to let the battery firmware update again?

    Lost wireless connectivity

    I've owned the XR Elite for about 5 months now.  During this time, the wireless Wi-Fi connection works well. Recently, I connected the headset via USB (to attempt to improve graphics for sit down application) which worked well.

    After this, I attempted to reconnect the headset using Wi-Fi, but it no longer "sees" the computer even though this worked previously, and nothing changed (except versions of software).

    Are there any additional steps I can take to get this to work?

    Thanks,

    Is the pc connection server list all empty?

    still can't watch youtube VR content , and also can't login youtube , it did not send login confirm to Phone and you can't use security code because the keyboard not showup when number input focused,

    also the keyboard not working well on youtube searchbar , if the searchbar got text in it , you need clear the text first so you can input new text , if clear text and input new text in keyboard textbox will not work

    also the cursor on keyboard input textbox is always at begin of text,  not the end , this is so unusual desgin

    pls VIVE team , it's already been 6 month and you can't get basic features for an AIO VR device to work

    I'm so frustrated with this device and just about to get rid of it, I don't even think I can sell it for 300$ , even quest 2 better than this

    Are you using vive video app?

    I was able to login youtube, but not sure if its because of the notification method setting seems to be different from yours? I was able to receive a mail to confirm sign in from google rather than receiving a login confirm from phone.

    Thanks, that works!

    The only other question is can you access the tutorial without entering kiosk mode?

    Yup!

    Its a built in app in library, you can launch it directly and whenever you want. You will see the animation first then enter a place to select which tutorial you would like to check. Its the one on the left "headset comfort"

    The animation can be skip by pulling the trigger anyways.

    Vive Pro 2 setup - with original setup file vs steam vive console

    Thanks, finally everything installed how it should be done - so,  how you suggested -  I installed only SteamVR from steam and Vive console from steam. Then I connected VIVE PRO 2 to the computer and now there is no conflict, everything is working fine. 

    Even my old problem with grey and black screen dissapeared.Great

     

    My last question is:  when I used to do it by downloading the vive  software setup from Vive website, naturally ViVEPORT was installed. I bought some games from there.

    Now I can see that there is no VIVEPORT in steam. So I thought : all right , I will download Viveport as a standalone software. But... when I start to install Viveport , there is an information that the file will install all the VIVE software , so of course I stopped the installation to avoid my old problem with all the conflicts. How can I get my games from viveport now? 

    Which installer did you download?

    https://www.vive.com/us/setup/viveport/

    I download viveport with this and just skip the device setup part, then I got one pure viveport install with no conflict.

    Is there a useful way to adress that topic? It seem as it should be a small & easy optimization of the GUI, but really annoying when this topic occurs 😒

    I saw this once for a while, I guess it was due to my weak internet connection, 

    but if I see it loading I switch to another tab(Setting or Profile) and then return to library, there's a chance to stop it from loading immediately.

    Not sure what did the trick, but it wont forever loading if I switch back and forth the tabs.

    Maybe give it a try if it can stop you from loading as well?

    This version activates passthrough when a controller loses tracking. That's pretty confusing to users, can this be deactivated anywhere?

    I'd tried to hide my controllers but did not get the passthrough be activated, only when I close both my controllers the pairing tab would show with passthrough?

    Just curious, in what case did you meet the passthrough?

    It refuse to update with the latest version.

    I tried :

    1) Downloading from your website : It install 1.08.8, (i tried again this morning) that's why I asked if it is the latest release package.

    2) From VBS, by clicking the button "find latest release" and keep saying I have the latest one. (which is 1.08.8)

    What can I do?

    many thanks in advance

    Just to make sure. Did you switch on "Beta program"?
