>That's a really nice poster! And I thought getting the avatar for Spiderman and GoW was cool!

​

You don't actually get a poster for getting platinum. OP is insinuating the relationship between the poster and the trophy with misleading wording in the post title, but in fact you buy it on Amazon.

Don't expect them to reply... Users are reporting this issue since PSVR launch in October 2016 and to this day Sony is quiet.

If you're experiencing this issue, try these:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00JVBBJHC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I've ordered them, had one blackout, thought that those didn't fixed this issue but after that one, eveything is ok for like a month now. It's ok both on PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro (PSVR v1) so fingers crossed. Try them.

Anyway - the issue is propably the same thing that happen with PS4 Pro after launch with cerain TVs, remember? https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnarcher/2016/11/17/ps4-pro-tv-connection-woes-lg-responds/#3a104ef61c33

Facts: 1. It can happen both on PSVR v1 and PSVR v2. 2. It's caused by the Processor Unit getting in conflict with certain TVs while decoding HDCP. 3. PSVR, PS4 console and the TVs ARE NOT FAULTY - they just need the firmware update like LG did with their TVs to prevent this situation with PS4 Pro only. 4. Since Sony is blaming TV manufacturers, TV manufacturers are blaming Sony, we are blaming everybody - it looks like the co-operation between them is impossible... So what we have is the situation when in some cases the Processor Unit is at fault and sometimes the TV. Since it's impossible to try every TV before use, all we can do right now is to try to resolve that issue by trial and error - new cables, splitters, restoring default settings etc.

In my case - the new cables helped but I'm still observing the whole situation and if I will find any permanent fix - I'll let you know.

Seriously guys, this stuff is really cheap and you can get them at any home improvement, decor or office supply store. They look and hold great.

https://www.amazon.com/Blu-Tack-S050Q-Reusable-Adhesive-75g/dp/B001FGLX72

Edit: All right, all I can say is I've been using this stuff with posters and picture frames for years without it falling, and it's been holding up my camera for a couple of months now with no movement. It's just putty, not like I'm trying to convert you to another religion.

"Experience"... fuck.

Alien Isolation has a functional VR mode for the Oculus Rift that can be unlocked with one line of code change, so it should not be too hard to make it work on PSVR.
I'm sure that none of us would mind too much if the resolution or effects have to be dropped a bit for it to work.

Heck, I'd even be happy just for VR support of the Ellen Ripley DLC campaigns -- or be willing to pay DLC price for a full VR patch.

I used the Pyle Compact Base Black Microphone Stand:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002PAW6AU/

I'm not the first to do this and I've seen others do similar projects but all the stands were discontinued and I couldn't find one that would fit through the holes in the camera stand. Luckily, it didn't matter as this should work for all stands that you can unscrew the top off of. I also wanted one with as low of a profile as possible so I could put it on the same shelf as the soundbar. It...barely fits as the base is closer to 9.75 inches as opposed to the 9.25 advertised. It has nice rubber bumps you attach at the bottom to prevent scratches.

I have my camera off center because that's the couch's center and, unlike PS3 move games, it doesn't matter where the camera is really. I played Sparc and Astrobot at the high height. Sparc was fantastic. Astrobot was different in the challenge mode with the ropes (#4) as everything was angled differently. Lowering it back to standard height is all that's needed to fix that. If there's any other questions, feel free to ask.

Also, if you're doing this, be mindful of you camera cable length. If I were to go much higher, I'd have to move my PS4 up to be able to have enough length.

Heres a slip on that does the same for a great price. I like this set because it doesnt get in the way of my charging stand:

RDS Industries 2 Pack Action Grips for PlayStation Move Motion Controllers https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LX4ZCJL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_g7uoCbP0TCFTD

Here you go, gunslinger

Not trying to start shit, but this stand is always around 30 bucks, and will charge TWO dualshocks, two Move controllers, and will hold PSVR set as well as headphones.

Just throwin it out there.

For those interested, I used a command razor holder. Here is the amazon link. This method is nice as you can easily adjust the angle of the camera and take it out as needed.

From their website.

Reach into your backpack to grab your multitool, touch it to switch to terrain manipulation, and carve out intricate shapes with unprecedented control.

It doesn’t directly state “move controllers”, but why would it tout “unprecedented control”, reaching anf grabbing things, or fist bumping PSVR peers while casually waving at non-vr friends?

> We are excited for that moment when millions of players will suddenly update and be able to set foot on their home planets and explore the intricate bases they have built in virtual reality for the first time.

From their website. It looks like it's just another way to interface with the already existing game and not something separate.

If you dont wanna totally DIY this is a system that's been out for a while and works amazingly well! They come in black or white so they're less noticeable when not in use:

KIWI design 6 Packs Retracable VR... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GV8CNPW?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Here you go: https://www.amazon.com/Hyperkin-Replacement-Light-Shield-playstation-4/dp/B07645VNXW ships to the UK as well. I'd contact Sony support though, read about them being able to supply replacements too.

Where were you all this time ?! The game has been available for Oculus Rift and HTC Vive for a year now :)https://store.steampowered.com/app/436230/Detached/

In the patch notes they mention improved cross-platform cloud saves. I wonder if that means proper cross save between the PS5 version and PSVR (PS4) version?

At the current prices, it's an absolute no brainer and worth it. I'd suggest getting a bundle through amazon though so if you dont like it, just return it hassel free. Just make sure you play astro bot before you make a decision. The game is a damned near magical experience.

Edit: Here is the astro bot bundle from Amazon. The Creed/Super Hot bundle is currently sold out. PlayStation VR - Astro Bot Rescue Mission + Moss Bundle https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H47J7T5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_yPC-BbM8XPMVF

Looks like the bundles are selling out, so if you are thinking of it, this deal is about gone. Good luck!

I’m not trying to tell you how to live your life, as it is your equipment. However, I use double sided Velcro a LOT at work, but I don’t use that particular type for anything over 2-3 lbs. It will hold up fine for the processor unit, but the PS4 is kind of heavy and gets pretty hot so it needs a bit more of a stand-off from the surface its mounted on. These wall mounts, from Amazon are pretty great. I have one for my pro and it keeps it plenty cool.

TotalMount for Playstation 4 Slim (Mounts PS4 on Wall Near TV) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07281WC5W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_I4DcFb7X9MME9

If you’re dead set on using Velcro, I would go with this stuff. It is an insanely strong hold, and the adhesive is unaffected by temperature. I’ve used it inside of stainless steel cabinets in a food production facility, where it gets hot and cold constantly, and it’s never given out on me.

Sorry for the long comment. I just don’t want to see anyone make the same mistakes I have over the years.

> No Man’s Sky Virtual Reality, like all the parts of Beyond, will be free to existing players. However, we’re excited to announce that the release of Beyond will see an exclusive retail release of the game on PlayStation 4. This physical edition will come with the base game, VR support, and every update so far, including Beyond.

Looking at 3D BR's on Amazon now, David Attenborough: The 3D Collection (Blu-ray 3D) looks like my jam. All in favor?

Oh look, it's a thing I made!

I also made a calculator so people can see the score requirements and such per song! You can type any note count into it, and see the max score, as well as figure out percentages and such! It was made some time ago though, it doesn't have all the new OST's built in, so you need to look at their note counts in-game and transcribe it.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XGPF3CW/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 its up for pre order on amazon. i would suggest people get on board, i can see this bundle being limited at launch. you can always cancel it up until the day before release.

I bought mine on Amazon. It's a PlayStation plug, so you need one that works for their peripherals. It was $30.

Camera Extension Cable (PS4) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JFX1IHM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Lots of little hints, but most importantly this:

https://www.nomanssky.com/2018/03/no-mans-sky-next/

Check out the logo under the platform logos. "W/ARE" is part of some kind of ARG they are using to build up hype (http://ware-tech.cloud/), but why would you place it like that if not to strongly suggest a VR release?

And generally it just makes too much sense for NMS to get a VR mode for this not to happen eventually. If not the full game, then at least some kind of VR exploration mode.

The new GameCube component cable:

https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-GameCube-Component-Video-Cable/dp/B00005QDJU

To save on overall console cost they put an integrated chip needed to make the component cables work in the cable itself pushing the cost to those who wanted a "high end experience". But fifteen years later no one can repro the cable so you get these 500$ listings.

I highly suggest anyone who owns a PSVR go get this adapter even if you are not planning on getting a PS5 immediately.

There's no mention of PlayStation VR Worlds either so I'm not sure what your point is. Here's an Amazon listing that does mention that it contains the PlayStation VR Demo Disc. Amazon listings aren't a source by any stretch regardless.

Well, it's $260 new and $111 used on Amazon...

https://www.amazon.com/Job-Simulator-PlayStation-VR-4/dp/B06ZZM2BTR/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1532398752&sr=8-2&keywords=job+simulator

edit: but I'll give you $20 for it

Just had a look, it's more than most vr games to extend that thing, £23 on amazon:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Camera-Extension-Cable-PlayStation-PS4/dp/B00JFX1IHM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1539336679&sr=8-2&keywords=ps4+camera+extension+cable

Lots of hint and speculation is all well and good, but IMO nothing is quite as clear as this:

https://www.nomanssky.com/2018/03/no-mans-sky-next/

Even if the VR teasers are entirely lore related somehow, you don't put "V/ARE" next to the list of supported platforms on your announcement picture and don't expect this to create certain expectations. They aren't idiots, so either they got something cooking or they are the biggest troll devs ever (I would say both is about equally likely :P)

Also NMS really badly needs VR. The amount of effort they put into updating the game is incredible, it's hard to see how they can make it pay off unless they find a way to get people to give it another chance. VR support would be perfect for this. The style of the game would also benefit immensely from VR, with its focus on exploration and experience.

If it's at all technically possible, then I am pretty sure it will happen sooner or later.

> Arkham

Really, if you feel Arkham VR was priced right, that's $20 for 1-2 hour experience depending if you do all the riddler puzzles as well. You get 4-5 hours out of Robinson for $40 on Amazon but even then $60 would seem appropriate based on Arkham VR.

I currently use this box from amazon. It holds the headset and my headphones nicely. It also looks sharp when you open it and take the headset out like its an artifact of some sort.

VRBX | The Original VR Headset Storage Box for PlayStation VR / Oculus Rift / HTC Vive / Samsung Gear VR https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LQKKH78/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_l65LzbCY6W69F

Ensure there is no alcohol in the eye glass cleaner because the PSVR lenses have a coating. Many (including myself) have picked up a lens pen instead. You can get for $7-8 on Amazon.

Like this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006JN3G

Collective Minds Psvr display stand/controller charging station, $35 on Amazon. Add $10 for the one that can accommodate the Aim controller too.

https://www.amazon.com/Collective-Minds-Showcase-Rapid-Charge-Display/dp/B01LYGCK1M/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1543434582&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=collective+minds+psvr+stand&dpPl=1&dpID=413TNYb97GL&amp...

fwiw it's only a few bucks more on amazon https://www.amazon.com/Strap-Woojer-Immersive-haptics-Music/dp/B076QG2Z7J/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1544145973&sr=1-1&keywords=Woojer

Warning, this game is not worth the sticker price period. It's weird that you paid $26 for a used copy when the game is $19.99 brand spanking new on Amazon (usa) for over a year now. I paid $19.99 a year ago. Link:

https://www.amazon.com/Rick-Morty-Virtual-Rick-ality-PlayStation-4/dp/B079T318PF/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?crid=1YT98IRQSV3RX&keywords=virtual+rickality+ps4&qid=1556888179&s=gateway&sprefix=virtual+ri&sr=8-2

You wrote all that and didn't include the link. It's normally $30. On sale for $22.50 (25% off)

https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP3536-CUSA07643_00-COMPEDIT25202048

You can definitely find it cheaper physically. As a matter of fact Amazon is selling it right now for $16.55 (closer to 50% off msrp) and you can probably get other stores to price match.

Can't blame me for being skeptical... ;) 95th percentile is 71mm, 99th is 74mm. In this study, the widest they measured was 78mm. Freak! :)

IPD Study

I think there is something unrealistic about expecting to get VR games that are on par with main-stream games right now. Aside from anything else it’s just not going to be economically viable given how small the platform is at the moment.

Consider the costs of making a new AAA game. An article from a few years back (2014) on Kotaku suggests around £60,000,000 for a AAA PS3 era game.

Now we know that PSVR has sold around 2.2 million HMDs post-Christmas. So if we made a AAA game on a PS3 budget then we would need to have every single PSVR user purchase it for £30.00 just to break even. That’s not a realistic proposition for anyone trying to run a business.

We have had a few cases of games with bigger budgets. Farpoint is a great example on the PSVR. And Lone Echo from Oculus Studios is another very good example of a smaller scale game that still has AAA production values. But expecting full blow 10 hour narrative games with professional voice acting and all of the polish that you would find from a flat-screen game is just unrealistic at the moment.

That time will come. Once VR hits mainstream and we have an install based of 20 or 30 million HMDs. But not at the moment. Not when even a really popular game is only likely to shift tens of thousands of units.

We're working on it. No ETA. It's a lot of work to spawn a separate video camera in a Unity scene on PS4 then run that camera, save the video, and ensure it writes to disc in a format the PS4 likes without interrupting game performance or frame rate. Once we get them working we'll let everyone know via our newsletter and a post in our Discord: https://discord.gg/HmjS9nb

In the meantime I believe there are ways to take screenshots and record videos right within PlayStation Share: https://kotaku.com/how-to-record-videos-on-a-ps4-1585679861

Thanks!

Well they fixed everything, added all the promised stuff that they didn't deliver at launch such as multiplayer. Added a ton of stuff that was never promised and overhauled the whole game.

I'd recommend checking the release log: https://www.nomanssky.com/release-log/

Yep. On February 21st it still listed PSVR. Now it doesn't. This is not looking good folks.

http://web.archive.org/web/20180221175659/http://www.beatsaber.com

Actually it also said it on the 25th. It was changed today, removing PSVR.

These people aren't hacking PSN for your login info. They have either phished for it, they hacked a site where you used the same email/password combination, or it is from people game sharing.

As long as you take the proper precautions, this shouldn't be an issue.

I'd also recommend not keeping saved payment info in your account.

I always delete it after every time I purchase something. It may be a pain in the a**, but it is better than the alternative. I had someone access my account because I was stupid and used the same email/password on various sites. They charged $200 in NBA 2k16 in game currency. Luckily I got an email notification right away and was able to address it.

Sony refunded my wallet. I'd rather have the cash back, but I planned on pre-ordering some games anyway. Whatever you do, do not do a charge-back or Sony will ban you. I almost did, until someone warned me.

Check out https://haveibeenpwned.com/ to see if any sites you visit have been compromised.

The list isnt very large

The only one I've played is Bound which in itself was released in VR.

I cannot recommend a drafting stool highly enough. going from a chair to a tall stool that swivels is like upgrading to VR all over again. this is the one I got from Amazon, originally for use with my standing desk.

Drafting Stool

But on the other hand, someone here pointed to an Amazon Basics Tripod that is about the same price ($23.49 US)

https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-60-Inch-Lightweight-Tripod-Bag/dp/B005KP473Q/ref=sr_1_1

I bought what I think is the same selfie stick you did, and I was happy that the 'camera holder' part grabs the Cameras stand without any fuss, and if you're looking for something to set up on a table it's great.

On the 'con' side, I didn't like that extending/retracting the stick itself is so rough (you twist a segment, move it to how high/low you want it, and twist it back). I had imagined easily switching between 2 heights depending on if I was sitting or standing.

Also fully extended this one is pretty wobbly

[EDIT: Sorry, I didn't get the same one. This is the one I got: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073BD8VF2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ]

I got an OG PS4. I bought VR bundle this week.

The bundle is The head set. 2 move controllers. The new version of the PS4 Camera and it all came with Skyrim.

Usual price is $450. It is on sale (at least in the US until 3/3/18 for $100 off) I got it all for $350 (plus sales tax in my state)

Since I got it home I have bought:

Super hot VR (awesome awesome game) Rush of Blood (lots of jump scares - super scary) Arizona Sunshine (only played Horde mode so far) Statik ( puzzle game. Already stuck on the second puzzle) Keep talking and no one explodes (now I just need some friends) ;)

looking to grab VR Worlds, I expect you to Die while they are still on sale. I would also grab Moss and Sprint Vector when the time is right.

PS I also have RE7 and beat it long before I had VR, so I hope to play that again in VR.

Finally. I just got a stand for it all. The PS one looks great but based on my set up it was too tall. So I got this one off of amazon. It just arrived at work today and I havent taken it home yet to set it all up and try it out.. here

Sorry. No pics otherwise :(

Its actually on sale now for 100 off on amazon, and newegg and many other stores. Bestbuy has sold out already, so you may want to think about it.

Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H47J7T5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_MpA8BbFXA0B5K?th=1&psc=1

Newegg: https://m.newegg.com/products/N82E16879261742

If you enjoy platformers at all, Astro Bot is an absolute MUST play. It's the most fun and creative use of VR I have experienced. It's also one of the most complete and polished titles available. Once you play it, you'll see why Yes, it was worth it.

I use this PSVR Backpack however it has been unavailable on amazon for a while now. You can find others if you search “PSVR backpack.” Mine hold the slim console, and all the accessories (minus Aim controller.) I saw another one that says it holds the Pro in the title, but the picture showing the headset is superimposed. Here’s the link anyways.

Same seller in amazon us:

https://www.amazon.com/Camera-Extension-Cable-PS4-playstation-vita/dp/B00JFX1IHM/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=ps+camera+extension+cable&qid=1562877466&s=gateway&sprefix=ps+camera&sr=8-3

Pretty easy find but whatever. I hope OP doesn't get the wrong idea from you.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IIT2AT8/

Works great and stores more charge than stock, fits like a glove. This was for the old move controllers with the mini-USB.

That's a good point, I'm in the UK so wasn't sure what the going rate was in the US. I just checked though and you can get the Firewall bundle for $79.99 on amazon which is a much better deal.

https://www.amazon.com/PSVR-Controller-Firewall-Zero-Bundle-4/dp/B07FRCT893/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=aim+controller&qid=1578308299&sr=8-1

avidemux doesn't have a batch remuxing mode (or re-encoding mode for that matter)

ShanaEncoder

Select > Copy > Stream Copy.xml > Quick Settings > File Format: mp4 > Codec: copy > Audio > AAC > Stereo > Bitrate 320

Save Setting ... then you're ready to go (add as many videos as you like and batch remux the lot)

Note: i did fugde the "2 minutes" quote .. it's more like "10 mintues" because if your audio is 5.1 AAC (or AC3/DTS) then you have to encode to 2.0 AAC ... because that's all Littlstar supports.

I've been using ShanaEncoder (for Windows) with 100% Littlstar Compaitibitily results :)

https://sourceforge.net/projects/shanaencoder/

I do find the code in the OP's github .. encode.js very curious though ...

https://github.com/littlstar/ls-psvr-encoder/blob/master/encode.js

const grabScreenshot = (video, data, outPath) => new Promise((resolve, reject) => { // ffmpeg -ss 01:23:45 -i input -vframes 1 -q:v 2 output.jpg const seek = parseInt((data.duration / 3).toFixed(0), 10) || 15 const screenOutput = ${outPath}_screenshot.jpg const f = ffmpeg(video) f.inputOptions(['-ss', ${seek}]) f.outputOptions(['-vframes', '1', '-q:v', '2']) f.output(screenOutput) f.on('start', () => term.bold('Grabbing screenshot...')) f.on('error', (err, stdout, stderr) => console.log(err, stdout, stderr)) f.on('end', () => { term.bold(Screenshot saved to ${screenOutput}) resolve(screenOutput) }) f.run() })

Screenshot ? does that mean 'Thumbnails' (which i thought weren't supported ?)

Would love if someone could post a link to a sample file (encoded with the github code) ... so i could take a look

(i don't have a MAC .. do have a RPi3 but my Linux knowlege is limited)

Yes. There is a lot of UGC but regular mini games are also very decent and there are absolutely no problems to find random people to play with.

It's also crossplatform so you can read lots of positive reviews on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/471710/Rec_Room/

I am seeing a lot of basic information questions about this game being asked (which is weird in the age of quickly finding most information with a quick search of said questions) For anyone asking basic questions about this game it's been out on Steam for awhile just check out the page and go through the forum and comments.

Guide to Install drivers for windows :

1. Download : https://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb-win32/?source=typ_redirect
2. Uncompress the package and enter to the bin/x86 folder.
3. Locate the "install-filter-win.exe" program and run it.
4. On the first screen choose "Install a device filter".
5. On the next screen you will be presented with a list of all your USB devices, find the one named "vid:054c pid:09af rev:107" 6-Install the filter on the selected device.

Source :"Howto.txt" from https://github.com/gusmanb/PSVRFramework/blob/master/HowTo.txt :

1-Exactly as you had set up the PS VR with your PS4 set it up with your PC, connect the HDMI output from your PC to the HDMI PS4 input at the vr box.

2-Connect the USB to your PC. (IF WAITING PSVR : Disconnect & Change USB Port)

3-Power on the PS VR set.

4-Windows will detect some devices, audio one will get correctly installed, there will be three more without driver.

5-Download libusb installer and install it as filter for the devices with VID 0x054C and PID 0x09AF (there will be four and the audio one).

Hope that help ;)

Great works and big thanks for the App ! Since the mac app i was waiting for it ... <3

Features tested for PSVRFrameworkPC - PSVR :

• Headset ON / OFF [OK]
• Enable Tracking & VR [OK]
• Enable VR [OK]
• Enable Theater [OK]
• Recenter [OK]
• Shutdown Box [OK]

View VR 3D SBS video on youtube with "Enable VR" work but dont know if its only 180° limited or full 360°

Just one wish, if we could get shortcuts for Features, as F5 - F6 - F7 - ... Especially for switch on VR or Theater

We can change the size in theater ? maybe later i hope ... :)

I'd keep my expectations in check. It's Killing Floor in name and basic assets only. This is not a 'Killing Floor' style game, at all, if that is why you're excited.

I'd do some research before anyone gets too excited for what this game actually is. https://store.steampowered.com/app/690810/Killing_Floor_Incursion/

I wonder if cases of DPDR will become an issue with VR. Have this effect from pot. Can't imagine both.

in the Vulkan Update blog post, they did addressed the amount of optimization work.

I betcha the performance might become more in-line with other VR-Supported games like Resident Evil 7 and Ace Combat 7, performance-wise. (expect for Xbox One)

https://www.nomanssky.com/2019/03/no-mans-sky-beyond-vr/

>Grab the joystick and thruster to fly your starship over an unexplored alien planet as you peer out of the cockpit at the view below. Reach into your backpack to grab your multitool, touch it to switch to terrain manipulation, and carve out intricate shapes with unprecedented control. Play in multiplayer and casually wave to your non-VR friends or fist bump your PSVR peers.

I hate metacritic, the practices there and slanting the scores based on current popularity of site is nonsense in my eyes, would far prefer to support OpenCritic but they aren't very good at keeping up to date with VR games and releases.

Frontier Developments knows they have 'failed' if they can't bring ED to PSVR. They state this on their website, 'Made for VR' https://www.elitedangerous.com/ ... thus it is obvious it belongs on PSVR too. It is a performance struggle for sure, and a proper PS4 version is a necessity. This PS4 version is now imminent, thus the road is open for working on the PSVR extension. I'm pretty sure that is the plan.

Probably the PS4 OG struggles, but I'm curious about how it performs on the PRO. If it does perform on the PRO, then the matter is delicate. What can FD do, what will Sony do. That is the question.

"A true, full-length open-world game for VR has arrived from award-winning developers, Bethesda Game Studios. Skyrim VR reimagines the complete epic fantasy masterpiece with an unparalleled sense of scale, depth, and immersion. From battling ancient dragons to exploring rugged mountains and more, Skyrim VR brings to life a complete open world for you to experience any way you choose. Skyrim VR includes the critically-acclaimed core game and official add-ons – Dawnguard, Hearthfire, and Dragonborn."

Partly true, but a little more complicated.

I have downloaded videos less than 10K that stutter and videos at 19K that don't.

To get to the bottom of this, I did some tests.

Using Handbrake (https://handbrake.fr/), I re-coded a 2880x1440 60hz (180 degree 3D) clip at various rates using the same settings then tested them on the PSVR.

Stuttering started when I got above 20K - and this is on a standard PS4, so the pro should be able to go higher.

So while bitrate is significant, there are other factors which cause problems at lower rates.

I would speculate that this involves the complexity of the encoding, that is if the decoding takes too long, the video will stutter even at lower rates.

*Playback was from an external HDD connected using USB 2.0

EDIT: Here's some numbers for the nerds (which refer to settings in handbrake);

Sample

Yeah, that's upto 2 gig for a 4 min video :O

Test to see if the browser has a built-in PDF renderer.

If it doesn't, you can always try something like PDF.js. They do have a website where you can load your own PDFs, but this needs local filesystem access which the PS4 browser doesn't supply. You'd have to setup a web server on another computer with a page that loads PDF.js and your document(s). Not that hard to do if you know what you're doing (or aren't afraid to follow some basic examples). Then you could read via PSVR to your hearts content.

I bought this one back in early 2018 and I love it. Won't hold the breaker box but that needs to stay near your PS anyway.

You need a switch that supports HDMI 2.0a and above.

Something like this should do you.

Nope. The PS4 camera has a special plug and port that it goes into on the PS4. The PS3 doesn't have that camera port. The PS3 only has USB ports. But amazon has the PS3 camera for cheep ($6) in my opinion it would totally be worth it to get that too cause there are a few pretty fun games on the move. My favorites are both of the sports champions games (the first one being my favorite).

Mine might be the Dynamo Stand (AMAZON), haven't got it yet but the other psvr stands are all quite big but what i need is compact tidiness and this does it well.

Yeah I think no more than 2, 2.5" probably. I found some on Amazon I might snag, but it's a pack so I'll have a bunch to spare lol

Edit: this is the pack I got. Has one set of 30mm eyes which should be perfect, and a bunch of other random smaller sizes that should be fun for something else :)

I work in film production and always have a trusty lens pen in my kit. If they're safe to use on $30,000 lenses, they're safe to use on your PSVR. Make sure you NEVER get the cup wet. It turns the nice soft padding to stone and can scratch the lenses. If you get water or sweat or something on your lenses, you can use the pen to clean them but then toss it. Also recommended pancro and lens tissue.

Do NOT buy the Zeiss garbage, it's got a lot more water and just doesn't get the job done.

Just "Dredd" though.

It's also only like $5 on Amazon and the more copies of that they can push, the less slim my chances of seeing a sequel become.

Ever since I've had my PSVR I've been using the original box it came in for the cables, camera, and processor box, this POWER A case for the headset, and just a small backpack for my PS4 and whatever disc VR games I have, but this looked particularly appealing as a more compact method.

The Amazon reviews seem fairly positive but I wanted to see if there were any opinions on Reddit also before I spent about $60 on it. :)

Rush of Blood is $10 on Amazon for the physical copy. Worth it for sure.

Here's one from Amazon UK https://www.amazon.co.uk/Calibur-11-220033-Camera-Extension/dp/B00JFX1IHM

EDIT: Appears these don't include the mini USB cable (standard charging cable from PS3 era).

You can also get them for $30 each at Gamestop.

EDIT 2: Certified Refurbs are $30, still no cable, but comes with a 90 day warranty. Might be worth it.

Love that controller - what I did for mine was I got a lap tray from Amazon, then I separated the controller from the thruster, and secured both pieces to the tray with industrial velcro. I then added some screws around the border of the thruster/joystick, to further keep it in place.

I got the same steering wheel and pedals for about $260 from Amazon. I didn't get that seat, but I got a stand for the wheel/pedal instead for $189 that works well with a chair I have. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004AYMCRG

I've done this once (not internationally, but for a three day trip). The struggle (immediately disappointment) is real. You feel foolish too..., especially if you made a point of getting every HDMI and VR unit cable, knowing they are easy to miss, and then forgetting the main power cable.

BTW... other than the other commenter's suggestions, I think Amazon annouced shipping to Mexico. I'm not sure if US prime users can always get the same one or two day delivery... but if you are there awhile, might be worth looking into.

Make sure to get the right one depending on Pro or OG.

I got this one when amazon was still selling it. Little cheaper at $25 about a month and a half ago. Beracah Sensor Camera Extension Cable for PS4 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CVLOWV8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_rkzwAbMG8Y3H7 I actually secured both sides of the connection to the wall on the other side so it never moves because it’s not rated very well. I couldn’t find one that was so it was my best option at the time.

Disc copy is only $40 on Amazon.

If you only want digital, it's up to you. I personally think full price was worth it. Digital has been on sale at least twice, maybe three times, in the last 3 months so your odds of another sale soon seems pretty good.

Wanted to add that that the physical game is one sale on Amazon for $23 with prime shipping from Amazon:

Good time to buy

OP, if you get a stand, DO NOT get the "official" stand. It's overpriced garbage.

I got the PSVR for Christmas and quickly realized how important a charging stand was now that I had 2 ps4 controllers and 2 move controllers. I stupidly bought the "official" stand for like $50 (at least that's the price on amazon). I don't know if the material was shit, or it was not a good shape, but the headset wouldn't sit up on it and constantly slid down (see the customer images here: https://www.amazon.com/PowerA-Charge-Display-Station-PlayStation-4/dp/B01LB4KGOS/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1529334479&amp;sr=8-14&amp;keywords=psvr+stand), and the move controllers would become dislodged regularly and not end up charging.

I ended up throwing it out and bought an unofficial one for less money that works so much better and supports 2 controllers.

The Power A case (which I use and recommend) is also at Amazon. Other people here have bought and used this case too.

Thanks for the suggestion. I also have been breaking out horribly since using the Rift and PSVR. I just ordered 35 oz of barberries from Amazon for $40. Seems expensive but it's worth a shot:

I recently bought a PSVR from a friend that came with everything I could need EXCEPT the camera mount. For a while I just had it taped on top of the dresser you see in the picture, but the other day I went on amazon and found this $8 cell phone clamp/holder that has worked wonders for me! Now I can secure my camera in a higher up position (which I’ve heard can help with tracking) and move it around if I need to change locations. The link to this particular clip is here

ghost Giant is $19.99 right now on amazon... lowest price it's ever been link

I have the same one lol got it on Amazon or ebay for less than $20 I believeTiancai Charging Dock Station for PS VR Move Motion and Controller

Hey man if you're in the UK and need a set of move controllers and like the look of Iron Man then amazon are doing a bundle with both for £85! Considering Iron Man is like £30 and a set of moves can go from like £60-£80 it's a great deal!! I've just bought it as I've had my moves since they released for ps3 and one of them has now got tracking problems!

Iron Man/Move Bundle

Lmao nope but they may have DESIGNED them upside down! Hmmmm, Amazon seems to also call them "floating" shelves. Now I don't know what to think.

Nah, my Linux skills are pretty rusty

For Windows, i've been using ShanaEncoder to re-encode high bitrate to 16Mb/s (Constant Bitrate) .. simple, fast, good quality and not a single stutter on re-encoded videos :)

It was also posted by seamonkey420 to be in stock from jet.com. They are selling it at a higher price but offer a 15% discount which puts it at $88. This ends up actually being cheaper than gamestop after shipping and tax.

Here's the link to Jet.com from the other thread.

I bought a small folding table at Walmart for 19.99. It folds into a small form that fits under my couch. I use my HOTAS and Thrustmaster t300 on this. Great easy solution for 19.99 that stows away under the couch. The only downside is it's very lite weight so when I mount my T300 which is heavy it can tip a bit. To solve this I added some weighs to the legs which I also keep under the couch. That being said with the HOTAS there are no issues and is very comfortable.

Fair enough, I didn't know they were made on different engines. I was just wishing that they'd select F03 or NV for their next VR remake. I wonder if that's why Project Capital Wasteland was canceled?
