Since I got it, I haven’t cranked the volume higher than the default config, which is around 50. The Mantis sound empty and harsh compared to these, and it does kinda make sense why my ears hurt when listening to higher pitched music/audio. Even with the Bionik Mantis clip-on earphones that I’ve been using for about a year, these built in headphones come out on top. Now, I’m no audiophile, but these sound way better than the built in audio of the Quest. This has to be one of the BIGGEST improvements from the quest 2. Beat saber and Echo VR ran ultra smooth with the graphics being tuned relatively high, and i hardly notice any lag, stutter or tearing on this headset. Performance wise, this headset kills it! I found myself getting much more stable frame rates and more performance headroom than I did on Quest 2 w/link. The IPD slider also works oh-so-well unlike the crappy 3 settings on Quest 2. The biggest benefit is that there is NO video compression because all the power isn’t being pushed through one cable! Finally, I can be immersed in the VR world without seeing weird pixels and artifacts. These 6 year old OLED displays also hold up very well! The colors feel much more natural, screen door effect is minimal and easy to ignore (at least to me, your mileage may vary) and it has a slightly better FOV. The head strap design is both comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. The foam facial interface also feels much nicer and less scratchy because the headset isn’t sliding down or around my face. It’s so light and the soft interior feels nice on my nose, compared to the hard plastic inside the Q2 that got oily from my nose rather quickly. I could go on and on about why I prefer this to the Quest 2, but my biggest reasons are, comfort, visuals, performance, audio, tracking, and the fact that i hardly ever use the Q2 standalone anyway. Since then, I’ve had nothing but fun with this baby.
One week later, it shows up and I instantly set it up. Once I got the money, I bought it as quickly as I could.
#DUPLICATE WINDOWS AUDIO OCULUS RIFT FREE#
After looking for a good deal with free shipping, I came across this gem of a deal. So I looked at Amazon and found them for 300+ dollars! For a 6 year old USED headset, it should not be sold so expensive! I asked a friend what his experience with the CV1 was like and where he bought it from, he gave my his review and then directed me to eBay. It peaked my curiosity because I remember seeing a video suggesting buying used CV1s for entry PCVR at a cheap price.
That’s absurd! So I started doing my research and stumbled upon old videos of the Rift CV1. Th e total for a new left and right controller would have me forking over 150. Why are these controllers being sold for 75 dollars per controller? This isn’t even just an issue with the quest 2, I have friends who still have a quest 1, and their controllers started drifting in less than a year. I went onto the Oculus website to check for the price of new controllers, and when I found them and looked that the price tag, I frowned. Normal fixes using tools at home like rubbing alcohol, compressed air, and toothpicks did to the trick for a little while, until August when the joysticks completely failed beyond repair. That kinda goes to show that the build quality of the headset matches the price. I'm running the latest (everything - 2020.2.2, XR Plugin Management 4.00-pre2, OpenXR 0.1.Much, much better compared to the Quest 2 for PCVR.īackstory: my controllers on my Oculus Quest 2 (I’m not calling it meta, that name is garbage) began to suffer from stick drift after 2 years of rather calm and careful use. Is there a way to manually specify the audio output? The bug is persistent for both the CV1 and Quest2 via link (connected at the same time).
I can get audio out to the headset by setting it to be the system's default audio device, but that isn't workable long term.
#DUPLICATE WINDOWS AUDIO OCULUS RIFT PC#
I've checked Oculus's settings for VR audio by adding/removing pc audio to the headset, and vice versa, all combinations have no effect - so even the basic work around is broken. It happens when I'm using the Oculus and Steam as the OpenXR runtime - both in editor and in builds. I'm experiencing a weird bug after switching to OpenXR where the audio output device is always defaulting to the system's default instead of the VR headset.
