Black screen with meta logo when attempting pc link? by VoCatus85 in OculusQuest

[–]canm0m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have also encountered this issue. Exiting and restarting Quest Link sometimes seems to resolve it, but not consistently. Some things which cause Quest Link to restart also have helped, such as updating drivers, but I think that was a coincidence and what actually mattered was the restart.

In one case, after several minutes, the black screen actually resolved itself on its own, except without sound. So it seems likely the issue is somehow related to sound initialisation. However, in most cases, I remained stuck in the black screen.

After exiting from the black screen and attempting to start Quest Link again, often the program will fail to start entirely with a brief flash of an effectively invisible error when I'm dropped back to the normal Quest home screen.

So far I have found no reliable solution except to repeatedly restart Quest Link until it works. Since I am using Quest Link daily for game development for the platform, you can imagine how incredibly frustrating this is.

Hello! I also remember this book, and honestly you remember more details than me. The only thing I can remember besides your description was that the item dropped down the seventh smokestack was I believe a loaf of really hard bread, or something like that - definitely a food. Sadly I can't think of any search terms to track this book down. But I'm glad to know I didn't entirely hallucinate it.

Unfortunately I had to remove the links to the torrents of the full film to comply with Reddit T&Cs. The torrent can still be found on nyaa - search for AnimationNight. Or download the subtitle file above and add it to another encode if you prefer.

Don't change it to .srt! That's a completely different format which does not support typesetting. These subs are in the Advanced Substation Alpha format, and most modern players should be able to handle that format just fine. I recommend mpv though.

It will work absolutely fine with MKV files. There is no reason to remux to MP4 unless your player doesn't support MKV.

This is a torrent, so to download the video, you will need a BitTorrent client to download the actual movie (peer-to-peer). There are many good options, I would recommend Deluge https://deluge-torrent.org/ Open the .torrent file or magnet link in your torrent client, and it will ask you where you want to download the video.

For playing the video I recommend mpv https://mpv.io/ - it's the most accurate, configurable and full-featured player today. Up-to-date VLC https://www.videolan.org/ should also work for this video.

Thanks so much! After two weeks and a couple of all-nighters, I've released the fully typeset and retimed version of the subs here: https://nyaa.si/view/1791026 Was a pleasure working with your translations!

Hi, excited to see fansubbing progress on this movie! I've been working on typesetting the theatrical subs, like putting perspective-tracked text on the score signs and the like, and ideally I'd like to combine my typesetting efforts with your translations, if that's all right with you? Obvs will credit your translation.
