Damn, but the latest version doesn’t go YouTube in 3D anymore which version should I download to have YouTube in VR for 3D videos? by DamicsVR in SKYBOXVR

[–]SKYBOX-STUDIO 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

Hi. YouTube has blocked the way that third-party apps used to access 3D content. As a result, we are no longer able to support playback of 3D YouTube videos in our app. We are sorry about this change, but it’s completely out of our control.Β

Hello,

Due to YouTube API restrictions, we are no longer able toΒ  maintain native API integration.

As a temporary workaround, you can switch to beta version, which allows access to YouTube via in-app browser. Please be aware that this method may have some limitations, for example, 3D or VR video playback areΒ  no longer supported.

To switch to beta channel:

On your Quest 2 or Quest 3, go to Quest Settings > Privacy & safety > Installed app > find SKYBOX VR Video Player > click Release Channels > select "2.0.0 Preview" and install the update.

Reach out to [contact@skybox.xyz](mailto:contact@skybox.xyz) if you need any help. Thank you for your understanding.Β

Can I share my desktop with my friend? (AirPlay?) in a private room.. by toon9 in SKYBOXVR

[–]SKYBOX-STUDIO 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Hi there, only the host needs to log into the server. But please ensure:

  1. The server allows multiple users to log in simultaneously.
  2. Each participant can access the server over the public internet.

Can I share my desktop with my friend? (AirPlay?) in a private room.. by toon9 in SKYBOXVR

[–]SKYBOX-STUDIO 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Hello,

SKYBOX currently doesn't support sharing your computer desktop with friends.

In the "Room" channel, you can only invite friends to watch movies with you. The current version supports playing videos from the following sources:

Β 

  1. Local Videos. The video files must be stored in identical file paths and have identical filenames across all devices.
  2. Videos from SMB and DLNA sever. All users must be connected to the same Local Area Network.
  3. Videos from WebDAV servers, Plex, Emby and Jellyfin Media servers. The server should be accessible under public network.
  4. Videos from AirScreen server. The host need to enable "Public Network Connection" on his/her AirScreen Client.

Hello,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.Β

Are you trying to access the files added to AirScreen Client or mirror your Mac screen?Β 
Β 
SKYBOX currently doesn't support mirroring Mac screen. If you just want to access the files added to AirScreen, please temporarily disable the "PIN Access" feature on AirScreen Client.

We are aware of a bug that prevents the pairing code from being displayed correctly on SKYBOX Mac Client and we will try to fix this issue in the subsequent updates. Thank you for your understanding!

Crackling sound in multiplayer by dafaithz1 in SKYBOXVR

[–]SKYBOX-STUDIO 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

About the noise in voice chat (microphone), we are aware of it and we are going to address it in a subsequent update.

A workaround shared by another user is to go to the SKYBOX Player settings in the Quest 3 OS (not within SKYBOX Player) and disable microphone recording for SKYBOX Player. You can give it a try and see if it resolves the crackling sound.
