I am Thomas Voland and this channel is dedicated to my experiences in VR/MR/AR. Playing in VR is very immersive and that's what I focus on - I hope to experience all the accessories that will allow me to feel real in the virtual world - upgrades for controllers, haptic accessories, motion platforms, gunstocks, devices for walking like in real life etc.

Will this work with the Bobovr S3 headset
Head strap doesn't matter. It will works.
Just wondering about the battery power to the headset, would the battery cable plug into the capture card then capture card to headset and then hdmi to other device?

how can i make the headstrap you are using?
This one is Kkcobvr Q3 and I will publish review in September. And if you want to see my recommendations for Quest accessories check vr.thomasvoland.com
thanks for this!
Great video! Interesting product…
Can I connect to a ps5?
Yup
Can I connect to ps5?

I know this is a video on the hdmi link but I’m curious about your head strap on your Quest 3. What is the brand and model of the strap. How did you attach the headphones? Do you have a video on it by chance?
@@LarryJenkins-if1ev video about it will be on my channel in September (and about many other head straps too). This one is Kkcobvr Q3 Pro with headphones from Vive Cosmos (the same like in Deluxe audio strap but with clips to mount on any strap). For my recommendations you can check vr.thomasvoland.com
Thanks. It’s not available now but I’ve wishlisted it
It's still here s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DlGYh7N with free delivery to almost everywhere
Have no need for it, still bought it lol
great info - thanks for posting
hi it s work with psvr2 please?
It seems that the Amazon DE link is not a capture card, maybe you can check again?
You are right. For a long time this card is out of stock in DE.
Very cool feature. With the Elgato Cam Link, I can even use 4K resolution (but only at 30fps).
really? 30fps should be fine for a watching movies and series or does it look very stuttery?
@@Gamer-kn7fi Yep I just tested it. For watching videos and movies the frame rate seems sufficient. However, I think the 4K might be a bit overkill since it's more than the Quest can display in a window at a normal distance.
@@Heico321 yeah I know that it's overkill but might still be a bit more then 1080p
@@Gamer-kn7fi In Quest, the difference between FullHD and 4k is so small that I am not even sure if it really exists. It's huge in flat games from PC, but rendering games in higher resolution is beneficial for AA etc so it's completely different situation.
@@Thomas_Voland it does exist I tried that with using different video independently from USB capture input, even though it's not full uhd it just looked a bit sharper (but I'm also watching at maxed out screen size), and yeah 1080p probably is good enough for most people but I'm still interested in getting it to 4k as I had to use a hdcp bypass anyway and that way could even use the fire tv with a uhd capture card.
What capture card do I need to run Xbox and keeping my headset charged at same time

Are there no good options that support 120Hz? 60fps looks so choppy in VR, I'd rather stream since you can do that at 120fps easily.
I think you're mixing up two concepts. 60fps is just the framerate of the video capture, not the framerate of the headset. The video capture is displayed in a static window so it will not look choppy. at all You would only see the difference if, for example, you're streaming a video game that was originally running at 120fps on your monitor/tv
@@Kstagnet Yes I get that. I steam flat games to Q3 through VD or moonlight and that at 120fps. It is obviously a ton smoother then 60fps. If you can't do that through hdmi capture then it seems worse in ever way besides not needing a router ig.
@@able_archer_it's worse in every way, except you can't run VD on a Switch
It's not possible. And if you want to use cable for VR, you need to instal special driver from GitHub and than connect it to PC with USB.
@@enihi Lower latency though, at least?
Would this work with playing a 3D blu-ray movie, from a 3D blu-ray player?
@@glennbargery7420 No
Hi, my UVC devices connect as MJPEG and have only 3 fps. How to change that to YUYV format in Quest? thx
You need to use better card. Most cheap cards are like yours. Or you are using something high end and have this problem anyway? Update: Hmm it's strange to have this low fps in MJPEG - I thought that it's in YUY 🤔.
@@Thomas_Voland No, these are cheap.. But on PC i have much more fps with these :(
@@Thomas_Voland with USB Camera app on Quest i can easily select the mode what i want and 1080/60p just works! Meta choose the first what usb device says?... Come on Meta!
Hello. Saw this video when it first dropped...convinced me to getting a quest 3. How is this new hdmi link from meta different from your original method?
It's just easier now for new users. Developer's account is not needed anymore, and app can be downloaded from official Meta Store, and not side loaded like USB Camera.
No uso Pc o es necesario para transmitir alas pantalla de las Q3 ?? En que pantalla se transmte en las Q3 ??
Don't need PC. You can connect anything.

What is the strap you are using , could you divulge more details on it. I like the fact it doesn't mess up your hair
Kkcob vr.. google them ;)
Kkcobvr Q3 - I will publish full review in September
@@Thomas_Voland thanks
What are the over ear solution you are using? Thanks
It's from HTC Vive Cosmos (the same like in Deluxe Audio Strap). I will make a video about it soon.
Did you try the ones from JCreate? I believe a couple models support YUV4 and PD charging as well, plus additional audio options
I didn't, but they are much bigger, more expensive and these audio options probably won't be useful in Quest.
I still don't quite understand why you need a capture card. Is it to strip out hdcp between the quest and capture card? Hdcp and widevine levels suck!
Capture card is to get video signal. HDCP on this setup doesn't really matter, it will be problem on Quest 4 and headsets with better displays.
@@saysbadman the capture card takes the HDMI Video input which the Quest can't interpret as it's not a USB format and converts it on the fly to a video over USB (UVC) which the quest can interpret. It uses the same thing as for example a USB Webcam uses just that the video feed doesn't come from a camera but instead it comes from a HDMI Source
Good test, do you mind showing the performance of all the cheaper models you tested in Quest HDMI link too?
Almost all cheaper cards are USB 2.0 even if they advertise as 3.0. No support for YUY2 and low frame rate. And they don't have Power Delivery so there is no real competition to card from this video.
@@Thomas_Voland I know, but we would still like to see the performance in a comparison video
Good point. I sent back the worst cards but I still have the most popular models so maybe I will do comparison.
Thanks for the comprehensive demo!
Thank you for the fast test !
The test took a few months, fortunately recording video was much faster :)
This video aged like fine wine with meta's new hdmi link app
But its like 10 fps 😂. No thanks.
No, you can play at a higher frame rate than the default. I noticed that you didn't see the chapter about profiles. I hope it's obvious that Quest doesn't have enough performance to run better graphics and record at the same time in higher resolution than normal.
Great video! Are you interested in collaborating with us to review our new magnetic battery head strap with super fast charging?
Thanks. Yes, I can test it. You can contact me via [email protected].
@@Thomas_Volandthanks, please feel free to check the mail with title "Product review Interest "
I just purchased this based on your review, looking for a slimline solution to use the battery but also the capture card for my steam deck from your earlier video and also a usb jump drive with movies. Have you come across a solution
I have made a few videos about capture card, so I am not sure which one you watched. However, in the video where I talked about VOD, I showed a solution: using PD HUB with the option to connect USB drives or memory cards, etc. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pmaLzNtsZazHkZs.htmlsi=YVaEsfclmWCz1Fw4
everything well explained 👍
Hi there, awesome review, you covered every aspect objectively were needed... I haven't understood a thing about the charging... Can I put the battery on the strap and then connect it to the cable, so it will charge booth in a single session?
Everything is possible but you shouldn't do this, and instruction say to not do this.
@@Thomas_Voland oh! That's useful to know! Thank you!
I think I'm close to memorizing this video. Thank you. No matter what wire configuration i try, my quest 2 will not hit usb3. Even directly into the unit.
I don’t understand. is it a software for optimizer?
QGO provides a new app launcher within your Quest home. From there, you can simply launch your games with tried and tested profiles, for example, to boost visuals or to save power, or you can edit the profiles yourself and experiment. There is an in game performance overlay which you can toggle on or off to see which parameters are working or not. I primarily bought QGO to switch off Fixed Foveated Rendering (which really bugs me) but there is still plenty of headroom to boost graphics on top of that, especially on games designed to run on Quest 1 and Quest 2. Some games are very conservatively optimised, so you can really boost them.
i like using my vr in bed so im not sure if this one is too bulky or not
Is mine defective? When playing games that have a lot of movement like Supernatural or the creed game I constantly have to retighten it. Anyone else has this issue? Looking up and down causes it to click and adjust on its own to get loose.
@@Gojemba it should never get loose
Jesus what. a fk mission. Someone create a dam work around that is much easier than this. Thanks for the video though
Mission was to discover all of this, so it could be so easy for you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@AiMusicPuppy d00d! You did it! HDMI Link is bangin.
Yesterday when I was browsing Facebook I saw ad for meta quest 3 with description Change your home into cinema. Did they finally make something native to help with this problem
Hi, Should this work for the legion go, seeing as how it has a type c port? as well? Nice vid, thanks!
If something can be connected to monitor or TV, it can be connected to the Quest.
