Virtual Desktop

Welcome to the Virtual Desktop feedback portal. The VR community has been very helpful along the development process with ideas and suggestions that helped make it one of the most popular VR application available today. I will continue to improve and add features to Virtual Desktop but I need your help. Tell me what features you'd like to see in future updates!

FOV setting as in oculus debug tool (FOV Tangent Multiplier)

Please add FOV setting as in oculus debug tool (FOV Tangent Multiplier). This is extremely important because cropping the edges of the frame can dramatically increase the frame rate in games. I am using the 0.77 setting in the Oculus Link. This...

Introduce 'dynamic foveated encoding'

Introduce 'dynamic foveated encoding' similar to that found in Valve's 'Steam VRlink' for Quest pro. DFE should reduce latency anf improve visual quality by reducing the amount of JPEG-esque artifacts in visually dense scenes.

Leap Motion support for easy keyboard input

Hand tracking is likely to become integrated into HMD's and accompanying (external) sensors sooner or later, so why not experiment with it from an early stage as a method to increase productivity using VD?

Ability to increase distance from 360 videos that are "too close"

Basically, some 360 videos are "too close", meaning they're right up in front of your face when they should be further away. On the steam forums, you replied with "Some of them were recorded with a different distortion / IPD and aren't true...

More robust resolution options, especially for folks with lower-end GPUs.

The VD performance dashboard shows that everything is running smooth except my framerate! I'm rocking a Radeon RX580, which gets pretty stuttery even on the "low" resolution setting. SteamVR allows more robust resolution options, can get...

Position each window at any virtual spatial point

Virtual Desktop is a great tool but it mirrors current desktop to a virtual enviroment. No idea if it is possible to do it but it would be super awesome if each different open window could be positioned in any virtual position, so each window has...

Foveated encoding range and intensity slider

Compared to ALVR, Virtual Desktop does very little foveation to the edges to the point where its barely visible unless I very closely look at it, I'd like the option to decrease edge quality even further for better center encoding quality.

Ambilight/AMBX-like functionality

Selectable as a background. Produces soft ambient light based on what's displayed on the monitor. Would be excellent for games and movies. See http://imgur.com/25InSAi for an example.

Please add subtitles support

I am sure many users (especially those with hearing issues) would like the option to enable support for SRT subtitles to watch movies in VR. There aren't many video players that can do this, save for Skybox, and while it is a little wonky due to...

Allow left joystick to scroll web sites or inside windows.

The joystick on the left Oculus controller doesn't scroll. I'm left handed and would like it to be my primary "mouse" for comfort.

Index controller emulation for proper finger tracking in social PCVR games

Neither air link or VD seem able to translate Quest finger tracking into PCVR games like Neos or VR Chat. It would open up such games further to ASL users. I would like to be able to set controllers down, get true hand tracking in game with FULL...

Implement Finger/Hand Tracking (Full Skeletal Input)

Hi! The current offical take according to Discord is that finger tracking isn't possible anymore because of the move to OpenXR. However, this is not fully correct: The emulated finger tracking with fake steam controllers isn't possible anymore....

A virtual monitor for the Vive camera, on the side of the virtual desktop

I want to have the option to see what's happening in front of me. This virtual monitor doesn't have to take up space on the other virtual monitor. So I can watch movies, etc, without someone creeping up on me
