In case anyone was wondering, there was some discrepancy with the payment, but C.T. sorted it out. VD on Focus 3 is pretty amazing.

Hmm ok, actually, even though I see if in my library online (not in the headset) and the money came out of my bank, when I go to purchase history, the transaction says failed in order detail - maybe that's got something to do with it? EO-4000025891

Thanks, I haven't had to do this with any other apps. Is this a new thing? I really like the headset, but I probably shouldn't have bought a business headset 😞

@C.T. - it doesn't show up in my headset even though I purchased and it shows in my library here: https://business.vive.com/dm/myLibrary. I'll try again tomorrow, but is there something I might be missing? The headset only shows 'Installed Apps' filter in my library in the headset too, there's no 'not installed' options (not sure if that's a thing though.

Hi Guys, Guy has said Virtual Desktop is coming to Focus 3, do we know when it will be available yet?

Is there something different you're doing to get Skyrim working? My controller bindings are wacky and I can't play it on the F3 😞 Not sure what I'm doing wrong

I'm keen if we can get Virtual Desktop on the F3 - that could be awesome Would be amazing to have some more content in general though!

Focus 3 controller can now work with Boneworks (Thanks for Jeremy from SLZ). This is awesome. Would anyone know if we can fix Skyrim too?

I've been mucking around with my Focus 3 bindings and I just can't get anywhere close to a usable experience. Has anyone got this working? It works fine with my Quest 2, but I'm hoping to play some with my now that the streaming is so much better.

Thanks for all these great streaming updates!

I think you might be misunderstanding? The headset is connecting at 1200mbps, but if you look at you network traffic in task manager, it will only be sending 75mbps over the link.

Not sure what's going on there, but confirming that my sounds is working ok.

Had a really quick test last night and wireless streaming works great for me. I also changed the RX and RY to 2448 on top of changing the bitrate to 200mbps. I only played beat saber, but it was smooth and looked much better. I'll try some more over the weekend. Thanks heaps for this update.

@C.T. Are you able to share what codec is used for business streaming at all?

Yeah it's a bummer.. Maybe we can start hassling HTC about this specifically now though haha I notice the other profiles have FPS, maybe it would be worth changing to 72 and see how it goes quality wise.. Would prefer not to lose any framerate, but for some things it might be fine. I'll try it tomorrow maybe.

Have a look in this thread - I've just tried it out with my 3070 (my 3080 won't fit in this PC I have - long story) but hope to have it running soon for some more testing - thought I'd just dump this all here in case it helps anyone. Changing to 1.3, RX and RY at 2448 and BR at 125000000 my 3070 is running at constant 100% encode and 54% GPU in SteamVR home 1.3, RX and RY at 2448 and BR at 100000000 (200mbps) Encoder still at 100% and GPU still at 54% Even when I go as low as 40000000 it's still at 100% for the encoder 1.2, RX and RY at 2448 and BR at 100000000 Encoder still at 100% I've got to go down to 1.1, to get the encoder down to 90% and GPU then jumps to 60% (RX and RY at 2448 and BR at 100000000) resolution in Streaming app reports as 2692x2692 It seems like it's the encoder letting us down at the moment. I could be wrong, but I think the encoder in the 3080 isn't much better for encoding... Wonder if we can change the codec at all

Thanks for posting this, I'm gonna check it out. I'm keen to play skyrim on this thing, but the lack of quality has put me off using it..

The F3 is a nice headset, but yeah, I'd agree, if you want to stream wireless or wired, you're better off with a Q3, the image is just so much better overall. It pains me to say it because the image on the F3 is really nice, try watching a movie in immersed and it looks lovely, but the Vive streaming app is just too low quality.

I hate to be the one to tell you, but yes, it's that blurry. Some games are worse than others, but you're not going to get it crisp with the current limitations on streaming. We've been asking for better options for ages and the official line is something like: There are other things that the streaming relies on that need to be optimised before the streaming settings can be increased. I honestly don't think it will ever happen now and I know there have been challenges for the dev team, but adding features seems to be very slow for this headset (not trying to pay out on devs or anything, I'm thinking it's more likely due to resource issues - it usually is..)

I'm so keen for this. My Focus 3 is just sitting gathering dust while I wait for this feature..

Any ETA on this for Australia?

Thanks, I tried changing a few things, but it seems like it was overwritten again. Has anyone else had any luck?

Can we modify any of these files to increase the wifi streaming bitrate at all?

Man am I glad to see this 🙂

I have similar issues sometimes, but it works for me when I do this: - (Make sure your boundary is set up) - Make sure Steam is completely closed - Open Vive Business Streaming app on your PC - Set the quality level you want in the app - Open Steam and SteamVR - make sure SteamVR loads ok and shows the thumbnails of your headset and controllers - In the headset, open the Streaming app Not sure if this will work for you, but hopefully it will. I found that my SteamVR would not load properly sometimes and the headset would sit on the blue spinning thing. Sometimes SteamVR would crash and try to reload multiple times - opening before the streaming app in the headset seemed to alleviate this.
