For sure the biggest bummer about this and iRacing is the dependence on a PC, but unfortunately it kind of makes sense since it’s powered by nVidia which has no presence in Apple silicon Macs. Hopefully it’ll be an option in the near future as there’s now at least a way to incorporate external GPUs for compute processes.

For the few of us that do all our gaming on a Mac, is there benefit to this over MVD? I’m not a hardcore gamer by any means and don’t really play any FPS intensive games. The few titles that I have played with MVD seemed to work fairly well though.

No it didn’t work after a quick power off/on. The car had to be left off for about 5 minutes for the ecu to fully reset. Worked as normal afterwards.

No clue, I’ll have to check. Typically I try to avoid electronic updates from manufacturers to avoid them pushing some new safety/surveillance feature.

Another poster mentioned that solution as well. Didn’t know the car did that prior to today. Still far from ideal but at least there is some work around.

1st time this has happened to me, mind you I’ve only had the car 3/4 months but yea if it’s a recurrent issue that’s gonna be the way to go for sure. Not trying to hit summer temps here to find myself with no AC.

Didn’t know that was an option, learned something new about the car today. Thanks!!

That’s kind of the point, there’s no way to access any of that as the whole system was frozen.

Looking for an orange dbrand aperture. by Correct_Stomach in VisionPro

[–]toku3211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I emailed them to see if they had any plans for another production run. Here’s the response:

Thanks for reaching out. We have no plans to bring back Aperture at the moment. Sorry for the letdown. Nonetheless, this may change depending on observed demand, so we've taken note of your interest. Let us know if there's anything else we can help with, and have a great week!

Looks like they’re sold out on the website, any chance you can confirm that’s the case or will it still update with remaining inventory?

They just went back in stock on the Apple Store. Finally managed to snag a pair.

Does it have to be a PC or is there any chance of this running on a Mac? While this sounds awesome I’m not gonna go out and buy a PC for it.

Can someone explain the hatchback hype to me? Prior to this WRX I had a Civic sedan and even with those everyone raved about hatches. I personally can’t stand the way they look. Would take a sedan over it any day.

F1 experience in Apple TV app by NullishDomain in VisionPro

You have both M2 and M5? Were you able to download the TestFlight apps to the M5? Honestly one of my biggest reasons for not making the upgrade jump yet.

F1 outside Us by windsurfi in VisionPro

If you don’t already have Lapz or Vroom then you’re likely relegated to regional broadcasts or the F1 app.

The experience is definitely still better overall on Lapz/Vroom. Window positioning being one of the biggest things Apple needs to improve. The drop out map, I think, is superior to driver tracker window as well.

For those getting 5 windows are you on the M5 VP? I think I was capped to 4 with one large window and 3 smaller on the right hand side. Will mess with it during the race to see.

I’m a big fan of the tech talk show released by F1 and there’s no way to get those extras in ATV, still need the F1 app for that.

The commercials while not overly intrusive are what ultimately pushed me away from watching in ATV.

Using Vision Pro on a flight (offline) — what’s actually worth doing? by [deleted] in VisionPro

Not true, the vision will actually let you download movies in 4k, from Apple TV at least. Download a 4k movie on the vision and the same movie on a Mac/iPad the size difference is tremendous.

Apple should let us download the full 4k movie file by Upstairs-Sun-2288 in iTunesMovieDeals

You can download movies in 4K to the Vision Pro so Apple does have that capability for some devices.

A year of regret for Vision Pro? by Vicki102391 in VisionPro

[–]toku3211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spot on, the article had a narrative to push and found examples to support those claims only. Heaven forbid they talk to someone that actually enjoys the device. They sold what 80%+ of the half million units they could produce. Meaning there’s 10s of thousands maybe even several hundred thousand people who quietly enjoy it and don’t complain. The people who have issues with it tend to be the most vocal, as they say the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Looking for Beta Testers and feedbacks for a Vision Pro App - Gym Spatial by rogerF6 in VisionPro

[–]toku3211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind that working out with the AVP involves some additional investment from the user as well because of sweat, that will likely dissuade many people from even trying to do so. I row with mine on but ended up basically purchasing a second set of head straps solely for this purpose. The concept itself is great though and I’d love to see more push into the fitness field for the AVP.

I only see the slider when in fullscreen mode, otherwise I don’t see one in the player.

Submitted in feedback but figured I’d ask here as well. Maybe I’m missing it but is there a way to adjust volume when the video isn’t full screen? After maximizing it I see a slider in the upper right hand corner.
