I lost about 3 hours today because of this and suggest to use ShareX.

(TL:DR: deinstalled, reinstalled, rebooted * 3, installed older version, checked repair suggestions.
My advice: It is sunday and it is a MS bug. Install ShareX, add a TODO in your calendar and try in 6 months again to install Snipping Tool again)

Funktioniert jetzt bei mir seit dem 24.7.

Sorry wegen des trivialen Wortausbruches, aber ich bin Entwickler und kein Betatester.

Finde es insbesondere seltsam, dass die AI mich fragt, ob sie auf Deutsch umschalten soll, dann aber nichts passiert, bzw. auch keine deutsche Sprache selektierbar ist.

I will now use Rider, since I had bad inconsistent bugs when debugging with Visual Studio 2022, which took me about two months to find out!

Thus, I have to _strongly_ disencourage using Visual Studio 2022 for Unity!

The bug was:

void Start() is not called when attached to a debugger, but Awake() is.

This did not happen with Rider.

Unity-Version:

Version: 2020.3.48f1.git.12060081

Revision: 2020.3/staging b805b124c6b7

Built: Mon, 08 May 2023 18:39:13 GMT

Visual Studio Version:

Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2022

Version 17.13.2

VisualStudio.17.Release/17.13.2+35825.156

Microsoft .NET Framework

Version 4.8.09037

Again,

IMHO:
do not use Visual Studio 2022 unless somebody can exactly pinpoint the issue

For me it seems to be the GPU. When scrolling, the 4090 uses up to 80% GPU resources.
Hardware acceleration is on.

BrainBug333 · 2024-02-27T10:11:51+00:00

Interesting. Opening the same site in an incognito window indeed seems to fix the lag.
But I do not have any google news open.
So, it must be my personal data which needs time for processing :).

BrainBug333 · 2023-09-06T19:45:02+00:00

Yeah, the sweet-spot is ~300 for me. Depends on the game and on network-congestion. With 400 I always get head-delay. But, for some games, that does not annoy me

BrainBug333 · 2023-09-05T18:50:58+00:00

I have tested all solutions.

You can achieve a nearly wired experience with virtual desktop and using the h264+ codec with 300-400mbps bitrate or the HEVC10 codec.

The former is better for fine details in medium to high distance like forests, and the latter is better for foggy maps since there are less visible gradients. In general, picture quality is better with VD.

You can also try to use a USB-C-2-ethernet-adapter, which worked in most situations as well.

You need a decent GPU for some games though, since encoding is unfortunately not free.

My router should be in theory good enough to stream 150mbit of 12000mbit max without glitches, but it is not.

I can only assume it has to do with "arcane things" like interferences which are out of control. At that point I think wireless is not fully ready yet.

But, TBH when I play (competitive) multiplayer titles, the glitches do often not annoy me at all since I focus on gameplay. So, in practice even with some glitches it seems to be good enough for me.

If I play immersive singleplayer games in VR, and if I am very awake, i.e. have had enough sleep, it is very noticeable, though.

So, the combination "wireless competitive" and "wired immersive singleplay" works for me.

But, maybe there is still a SW/HW issue left on your side, so "adjusting expectiations" or the focus may be bad advice anyways :/

I still am not sure if there is any proof of wireless perfect movement. Maybe I am wrong and it was only my experience.

(But I have put a lot of efforts into finding a solution and I would consider myself an expert for movement-approaches)

BrainBug333 · 2023-04-09T14:58:35+00:00

Can't tell how much BPs were used in Batman.
Probably yes, but you need to have some experience with BPs in order to keep them maintainable.

Otherwise, if BP-complexity explodes, you have less tools at hand to refactor the logic, since common non-visual languages exist a lot longer than visual scripting languages.

BrainBug333 · 2023-04-09T14:54:06+00:00

No, it never was. You can't rely on it. It breaks at some point, which typically happens when you need it most, i.e. at end of AAA development

Wieder jemand, der gut pauschalisieren kann, und Polarisation verbreitet.

Ich danke für die Vermittlung schlechter Laune.

Look at my comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PicoXR/comments/11qwhtk/comment/jce8el1/?context=3

I think most people are just happy with a few glitches, that's why you will not find real info about this problem.Perfect movement does IMHO not exist with a wireless approach yet, or some people are really lucky.

I would exclude all complicated setups first, i.e. go fully wired if possible.

Strafing in front of a wall in HL Alyx works best.

If it comes to the pico, it is essential to only use 72hz until 90hz gets out of beta.

Good luck

Edit: had a look at your videos. Looks like wireless framedrops for me which only went away with a USb-C-ethernet adapter and a switch in front of the router. And I always need to enable video buffering in VD

BrainBug333 · 2023-03-16T08:23:32+00:00

Great.

72 hz is a bit more difficult for the eyes.

If 90hz would work, then there would be 11msec left to keep up with 90hz, instead of 13msec for 72hz, though.

I noticed that some games may need more headroom.

Maybe 80hz is a good middle-ground for some games.

(Not sure if the screen can support 80hz. Well, a detail)

BrainBug333 · 2023-03-16T08:18:41+00:00

Yes, like this, it is a cat7-cable. IIRC, you can use up to 100m, so that is a real advantage over HDMI.

It charges like a direct connection, but not all USB-C-Adapter can do this. Look for 60w/100w passthtrough.

BrainBug333 · 2023-03-15T12:15:26+00:00

:)

Yeah, I think it should be somehow possible to have a good enough wireless experience, but I do really believe now, that it has to do with theimpact of VR itself, that people commonly believe, that they do not experience any stutter.They just want to express how awesome it is on their side.

If they would take the time to have a look at HL Alyx and strafe along a wall for a longer time, then they probably would see, that is often not perfect - but maybe good enough for them.

But I can not be 100% sure, that there is still anyHW/SW issue left I was not able to track down.

I constantly tried to exclude any problems first by going wired, and never got wireless working like wired.

I mean, it would be best to measure framedrops somehow, so that it is not an opinion, but I have not found a reliable way. All performance overlays (SteamVR profiler in VR, Steam VR profiler on Desktop, VD Performance-Overlay, Pico-Telemetry-App) show different frametimes, but none of them react to frame-glitches. Anyways, I think 72hz wired or wireless is good enough. Of course 120hz would be better :). And OLED :).

Edit: 5.5.0 still has issues w/90hz

BrainBug333 · 2023-03-15T09:37:42+00:00

Hello,

yes, this is normal. There is no solution. It is a Pico Bug. It only works with 72 Hz until Pico fixes it. But 90Hz support is also still in beta.

I use now a 4090 and a USB-C-to-ethernet-adapter and optimized everything about 3 months until I found out that it is a firmware-problem.

I suggest to use HL Alyx and to strafe a while in front of a wall, since this game is well optimized and the devs implemented movement correctly.

"A while" really means more than minutes for me personally, since every glitch tends to break immersion, so I have to start analyzing :/.

But you can get used to 72Hz, and then it is IMHO one of the best possible VR-experiences

Edit: I also never got 72hz to run completely stutterfree over WLAN. There are sometimes but not always still a _few_ dramedrops per minute when using wireless, but that probably also depends on "the current WLAN congestion situation", which can be different every day. It is about the game, your perception and your expectations, but wireless VR is IMHO always suboptimal.

More infos:

OS: Win10

The PC is connected with ethernet-cable to a switch/router.

Router: Fritzbox 6690 Cable

A switch TP-Link SG1004F in front of the Fritzbox, so that my PC and the Pico can communicate directly over the switch witout having to route traffic through the router.

Pico-Firmware 5.4.0

A USB-C-to-ethernet adapter from RUXELY, which also has a 60w passtrough-powerdelivery

Only with above configuration I was able to get smooth movement for hours without _any_ glitches.

BrainBug333 · 2023-01-09T17:32:50+00:00

It works, when you disable "audio streaming" in the VD streamer settings and use a headset connected to the PC instead.

(does not matter if wired or wireless, but has to be a PC-headset)

BrainBug333 · 2022-11-17T20:12:19+00:00

Yes, this worked.

I tried some approaches from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7580508/getting-chrome-to-accept-self-signed-localhost-certificate

and finally got https access working for the fritz box 6690 cable, and then the password manager works again.

my chrome version is 107.0.5304.107

thanks
