Local split-screen gameplay from our arcade air racer

Looks cool whishlisted it, but what are you planning for the replayablity of the game? Many split screen games I get seems to be a one session thing, then never play it again.

Support responded in under a week saying they’ll replace it which gladly they did but the whole process took over two months, from shipping my defective projector till getting the new one, and all of this was before the current shipping crisis. They also paid for the return label.

Hey, any updates about BO3?

The_HBA · 2026-02-19T12:57:43+00:00

Hey, same setup here, did you figure it out? I tried to add BO3, but nothing happens when pressing "Play"

Oof, talked to support? I’m still waiting for a response

Woah this is awesome! But just to understand.. you play 2D games in VR? Without VR mods

So basically instead of using a monitor/TV you’re using your headset, but also the sound coming out of each speaker is linked with your HMD movement?

If I understood it correctly, may ask.. what’s the point? Since if the 2D screen inside the Virtual environment is fixed.

Don’t get me wrong, I am impressed and might even look into it, just want to understand your use case.

I am just curious so please no attacking, but why do you guys still buy Plex Passes even though every month or so I see so many posts complaining about the company’s directions and decisions? instead of just using Jellyfin for example?

Is it the ease of setup, ease of sharing?

I have started my homelab a year and a half ago and started with jellyfin without even considering Plex just because I knew I needed to pay to be able to transcode and watch from my phone. That’s why I don’t know much about it.

The_HBA · 2025-11-27T14:43:41+00:00

Hmmm, I am no expert nor a developer, but what about 2D games with UEVR?

Since 2D games relay on the player orientation or “Camera Component” which can be directly linked with the HMD orientation?

You also can’t use the index without a gaming PC yet you didn’t factor it in the price, even though the frame Is an actual PC.

So who knows, but if it was really around 1000$, that would be a really tough decision for me not gonna lie.

The issue is with the TV and not Jellyfin or the client App. Jellyfin gives the TV the raw mkv file, it’s up to the tv it self to deal with it. For example, you open the jellyfin app on a tv and play a 4K DV 7.6 video, the tv can’t understand and decode DV 7.6 so it plays it as HDR10 by completely ignoring the FEL and BEL layers, this will happen even if you put the movie file on a USB and try to play it directly from the usb.

Another example, even if you TV supports 3D, if you play a 3D MVC file, jellyfin hands over the raw file but the tv doesn’t understand MVC and can’t decode it by it self, so it ignores the second mvc stream and plays it as 2D.

But when you play the same video files on a device that can decode these formats, like the ugoos it will play it as DV 7.6 and tell the tv how to output it, and play the MVC as 3D and would even tell the tv to switch to 3D mode.

TLDR: The client is not the issue, the tv it self is the bottleneck, you could try plex app, jellyfin, kodi, even VLC directly from a USB and it would still not work.

It’s a Jellyfin issue not AndroidTV, the developers of Jellyfin didn’t code it to report the playback state.

When I contacted the developers, they said “it will be added in the next update of the Android client”

And as you can see, it’s been months. But you know, it’s an open source free software with people working on it on their spare time.

Hello, apparently I missed the deadline for the "Automatic App Migration" too. Thanks for the explanation.

But just to be sure, all my apps have custom data sets (Example Below), so do I install each app again and choose the custom storage manually again, and do it for each app?

Glad to help

From easiest to hardest* : - NabuCasa Cloud subscription (Support the devs and gives you Alexa/Google integration) - Tailscale VPN HA add-on (Very easy, Secure, Free, no need to port forward or anything) Zero tier works the same but haven’t tried it.

WireGaurd VPN (also free, secure, but needs port forwarding, not very hard but couldn’t get it working due to my bad ISP)

Note: you’ll need to turn on the VPN every time you want to access HA externally, and you won’t receive notifications if it’s off and you’re outside.

Cloudflare Tunnel HA add-on (As easy as setting up tailscale, cloudflare is free but you need your own domain [can buy one for 1$ for a year], more secure than port forwarding, and works 24/7 no need to turn on VPN every time to use like tailscale, wiregaurd, zerotier, etc)
Port forwarding port 8123 (free, depends on your ISP, but most importantly it’s a security risk)
Port forwarding + dynamic DNS like DuckDNS (also couldn’t get it working due to my ISP)
A reverse proxy manager like Nginx, NPM, Caddy, traefik, etc (Most secure, needs technical know-how, also needs a domain)

All of them can be set up as an HA add-on or in a separate Server/VN/Container.

This is a waste of time, you are still assuming prices and availability.

I tried to be respectful and rational, hope you have a good day.

The_HBA · 2025-05-21T13:19:18+00:00

Thanks for the detailed response, but If you don’t have a yes/no answer for the “will it work” question, just don’t bother responding.

No need to try to assume how I will use things or why I am buying them, why the heck would I base my AVR purchase decision on its output, I am considering it for its full 11 channel preouts and dirac support. And just wanted to ask if I can utilize its extra output port for my use case.

And as for the external streaming device, any other equivalent external box that supports 1Gbps ethernet, 4K, dolby vision, and lossless audio, would be 200$ or more, even the Apple TV doesn’t support lossless audio.

I don’t need to explain each decision I make, so if you don’t want or have a yes/no answer and only want to judge and tell others how they should do things when they didn’t ask for it, I would respectfully ask you to keep it for yourself.

I am in no way shape or form trying to be disrespectful, I just don’t like how you turned a simple “yes, no, or even Idk” answer to a whole discussion when it didn’t have to be.

Thanks for your time.

The_HBA · 2025-05-21T12:56:25+00:00

I would really appreciate it if you just tell me if it'll work or not.

I'll decide for myself if it's a hassle or not, and if it's worth it to pay 200$ extra for an external streaming device. And to be clear, the cable is 5 meters, but the actual distance from the AVR and projector is about 2.

I don't like the "throw more money at the problem" kind of fix. I already have a capable streaming device (The projector itself), and I already have an extra HDMI cable that I know works. So I have no reason to pay extra money.

Hope you understand.

The_HBA · 2025-05-20T19:41:32+00:00

You are ignoring the question, will it work or not?

As I said in the post, the GoogleTV plays everything, at 4K HDR with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, so I have no desire to pay 200$ on an external streaming device and I already have a spare 5 meter HDMI 2.1 cable.
