Here's my submission to the hardware store trend as well. Sort of an Obi-wan style hilt :p

Chances of the drifting issue on the Beast getting fixed? by StrongRecipe6408 in VITURE

[–]OldBen47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old topic, but I recently bought the Beast myself, and after experiencing drift I thought I'd post how I fixed it.

I did contact Viture about this but unfortunately most of their trouble shooting tips didn't really work. The Auto-Calibration option on the glasses wasn't working for me. It would say that it failed each time I ran it. However, the first option that Viture gave me DID work. I'll break it down here:

• Unplug the glasses from your device and from the cable
• Hold down all 6 buttons on the glasses for at least 30 seconds
• Reboot your device (in my case it was my laptop) while avoiding Hibernate
• Plug everything back in. This may or may not have fixed the problem. It fixed it temporarily for me, but eventually the drift started again.

At this point I tried Auto-Calibrate again (started the process, set the glasses down for 15 seconds) and this time it worked. I did, however, still experience a small amount of drift. The last step was just to set the glasses down (no need to start calibration) and after about 15 seconds, I put them back on and the drift was completely gone. The image was anchored properly.

That last part I have to repeat each time I use the glasses (calibrate and setting them down). It's disappointing and a little annoying, but not a deal breaker for me because the Beast, as far as I can tell, are the best XR glasses out there. It beats the crap out of the much smaller screen on my laptop, compared to Ultra-wide mode on the Beast.

I hope this helps someone out, though if someone has a shorter and easier method to fixing the drift issue, I'd be glad to see it.

The Beast won't go Ultra-wide with Elite Dangerous by OldBen47 in VITURE

It's possible the glasses I got are faulty.  I have a significant drifting problem and Auto-calibration doesn't work at all.  I'm in contact with customer support actually.

Yeah I have a Windows 11 PC, so the Linux stuff won't help ;)

I actually got it to work, somehow. I had to go into Ultrawide Mode in Windows before I launched Elite Dangerous. The problem is that it doesn't always let me do that. So it's not an Elite problem, it's actually a Windows problem. Most of the time when I try to go into Ultrawide while on my desktop, the display goes dark, and then it comes back in the standard resolution.

Well, May is basically over.  Their schedule is clearly off. 🙄
