VR MEDIA VIEWER Reviews

Great player with clean interface. I use it mostly to play 3D movies using my Varjo Areo headset. Amazing experience and totally new ballgame. And great alternative to home theater projectors where I can watch in private w/o engaging entire family.

Actually the best viewer for 360 photos in VR on Steam. It's not bad even for classic 2D photos. It would be nice to have ability to play Youtube videos in that app (specially the 360 one).

Very good for watching 4k 180° ... movies and such :)

I was hoping for something that crashed less than DeoVR, but this was worse.

Now I can finally watch all my stereoscopic photographs in mpo format full size in the VR headset and without the need for readjustment. That alone justifies the price for me.

This is a good VR video player. It offers a free demo, so you can try before you buy. The reason it's good is it does not have as much performance issues as I have seen when compared to any other SteamVR video player when using a WMR device. Steady playback (no apparent skips from poorly timed or missing frames, even if application says the frame rate is constant) should be the number one priority in a media player, though many apps seem to overlook that and just put a bunch of features in their player that seem to cause inconsistent performance issues. This app does not support web browsing to my knowledge, but does offer everything else I could want from a VR media player (all view configuration types, 2D, SBS, OU, 180, 360, etc., Media Foundation and DirectShow support, good file browser, tilt and zoom, controller support). Definitely recommend this product, try the demo out for yourself if you are unsure.

To view stereoscopic photos, this program is the best for me at the moment. It works without any problems except for rare crashes, although I have not yet been able to determine whether the program or other parts (PC / VR glasses) are responsible for this. Update 2023/7/12 : No more crashes, runs fine. If you want to view your own 3D photos with VR glasses, you should use this software. I find the price/performance ratio very good. (Made with DeepL ;) ) Um stereoskopische Fotos zu betrachten ist dieses Programm für mich momentan das Beste. Es funktioniert bis auf seltene Abstürze problemlos, wobei ich noch nicht feststellen konnte, ob das Programm oder andere Teile (PC / VR Brille) dafür verantwortlich sind. Wer insbesondere selbst gemachte 3D Photos mit einer VR Brille betrachten will, sollte zu dieser Software greifen. Preis/Leistungsverhältnis finde ich sehr gut.

This is the one piece of software I have been able to find to view MPO files properly. Unfortunately the software is very unstable and will start to slow down until is crashes. I can usually look at images in about 10 directories before it crashes. The interface is usable, but a bit clunky for large libraries. The Oculus controllers work and the interaction is a mixed bag of really good, to why did they choose that button for that. Overall, I like the program, it just needs some serious bug fixes.

This is a great player for standard video playback, it's very simplistic. However, it's extremely limited when it comes to 3D VR playback capabilities. There are numerous 3D VR video formats & the only ones that I can get to work were 3D 180 VR SBS videos & standard 3D videos encoded as SBS or TOP / BOTTOM format on a 2D screen. 3D 180 VR videos that are recorded with a single fish eye lens display no stereoscopic effects. 3D VR 360 videos that utilize the new Youtube encoding format don't work at all. I think it's called Equi-Angular Cubemap or EAC. The VR videos need to be encoded as equirectangular format for this player to play it successfully I suppose. In all fairness, I'm using the Lenovo Explorer WMR & there is no mention of this player supporting Windows Mixed Reality headsets but because the demo worked with standard videos I opted to buy it since I like how simplistic & how efficient it is in allowing me to quickly navigate my system to playback videos. I'll update the review if I find additional information that may be helpful.

I was excited that I can finally view my Fuji 3D camera's MPO files in VR... and the options to resize, move around, and even display multiple images at once is awesome. I asked the dev to see if they could support the Lenovo Mirage camera's VR 180 photos (which no other application seems to support), and they released the ability to do so in the next patch. and they look amazing. The wide support of formats, combined with the user friendly interface for multiple windows, makes this one of the best VR media viewing apps I've ever used. I hope they add support for network share access and cloud service integrations.... it's pretty new, and the dev seems eager to please. Which is always a good thing!
