PixiStudio Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Hi, I previously asked if the HTC Focus support the H.265 codec. I got an answer from Support telling me the headset was indeed compatible with H.265 codec. After testing it on my end, I can’t make it work. I asked Support about this and sent my video files for testing purposes but got no answer ever since. Is there some specification our video encoding needs to have in order to be compatible? Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HackPerception Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 @PixiStudio What version is your firmware on the device? H.265 support was added with the 1.69.xx firmware update - it's not possible to decode that format on earlier versions of the OS/firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixiStudio Posted August 5, 2019 Author Share Posted August 5, 2019 I do have version 1.69.xx When I play my video inside Viveport Video it says Media error, Media unsupported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotta Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Hi @PixiStudio, H.265 codec should be supported. Could you put the problematic video clip to an online space so that our RD can download it and investigate why it can't be played? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PixiStudio Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 I have done further testing with my video and managed to play a H.265 video. I think the problem originate from the resolution of my file. I tried a 4096x4096 and it worked whereas the 4320x4320 didn't. Do we have a list for supported resolution on the video player?

Cotta Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Hi @PixiStudio, The video resolution you provided is 4320x2160. It exceeds the hardware decode limitation on Focus, which is 4096x2160. We confirm the H.265 HEVC media format is supported. Please try lower down the video resolution and that should solve this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotta Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 And Focus hardware decode supports 4K video. The width or height larger than 4096 is not supported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
