Question 1

Installing Warp VR on the Oculus Quest 1 & 2

Accepted Answer

Oculus Quest is an amazing device and at Warp we are very excited to extend the compatibility of our app to this new awesome headset. Unfortunately at this very moment Oculus is focusing on the entertainment aspect of Virtual Reality instead of the business one: this means that for the time being we are not able to provide our software through the standard Oculus Store.

Even though we are sure that this is going to change in the near future and we are happy and ready to support the official distribution method once available we also want to give the smoothest experience to all our clients in order to make installing and updating WarpVR an easy and pleasant experience as much as it is using it!

Question 5

The best 360º video transcoding settings

Accepted Answer

In this article we tell you more about our transcoding process and how we optimize your videos for optimal playback on different devices.

We differentiate between a low, medium and high quality setting aimed at different classes of devices:

Low: web browsers (Studio) and low-end mobile phones
Medium: current modern mobile phones or tablets
High: VR headsets such as Oculus Go or Quest

Our transcoder uses a Quality-based Variable Bitrate (QVBR) algorithm that dynamically varies the bitrate as necessary to maintain a constant quality level. For our purpose we've configured the quality level at 9 out of 10, where 10 is considered near lossless.

For lower resolutions we prefer to use H.264 (AVC) as it requires less decoding resources on the device. However for our highest resolutions we are forced to use H.265 (HEVC).

Monoscopic

These kind of videos show the same video for both eyes. This format is also suitable for playing in "2D" mode without using VR goggles or cardboard.

Low: H.264 @ 1480x720 (720p)
Medium: H.264 @ 1920x960 (2K)
High (4K): if original width < 5120, H.264 @ 3840x1920
High (5K): if original width >= 5120, H.265 @ 5120x2560

Recommendation: upload your monoscopic video in at least 5120x2560 in H.264 or H.265 with at least 150Mbps bitrate

Stereoscopic

These kind of videos show a slightly different video for each eye to create a more "3D" like experience. This especially helps with playing on
