Ah, cool, thought it was proprietary and had to use their name brand one. That’s better, at least.
After the last update DEOVR died for me ultimatly. Their UI is crapp, the stability sucks bad on my pc while other players are improving. Will give HereSphere a try, the UI is heavy but video playback performance is already 200 % better than DEOVR ever was.

So has anyone gotten XBVR to work on the Quest 2? The instructions seem pretty simple. Add folders and then go to http://127.0.0.1:9999/ in the DeoVR browser. I do that and all I get is a blank screen.

XTPlayer with XTP web, that’s the current best solution imo.

Having the same issue unfortunately. I think the white (grey on refresh) page is just the standard DeoVR 404 page (page not found). You can test this by entering a bogus url that doesn’t exist and it should display the same white screen. I can’t access the XBVR url on my phone either and am currently trying to figure out why that is.
Will give that a shot. Appreciate everyone trying to avert the Q2 apocalypse
If you learn of an app, other than DeoVR, that runs on a Quest that can play VR with scripts, please let me know.

I had to use one of the different IP’s that XBVR runs on. Also my pc was on a different network connection. I don’t know how you can match the script to the videos that aren’t on SLR though so my scripts won’t play.
Put the script and video file in the same folder and name them the exact same. Then match both files to the scene in xbvr.

Thx I already tried that, but when I click on ‘Match’ a popup appears where some file info is shown together with a search box where I can search for titles on/from SLR and that’s it. I can assign a SLR title, but I don’t think that solved the issue.
In this pop up he shows you scenes from every scraper you have run, so not only from slr. If he does not find the scene, go to the website of the studio and look for the scene. Copy the title and search again. XBVR is sometimes very bitchy about title matching.
Thx, but I was talking about how I wanted to play videos which aren’t available on any of the scrapers.

127.0.0.1 is the address of local machine. In Quest 2 you need to replace it with the machine that you’ve installed XBVR on it (e.g. 192.168.0.5).

If you have difficulty to find your machine IP address, open http://127.0.0.1:9999 on the machine that you’ve installed XBVR. Then go to options and click on DeoVR. There it shows you what IP address you need to enter in Oculus.

I tried the ip address for the machine with xbvr installed and I still only get a blank screen on the Quest. When I click on DeoVR, as you instructed above, it gives me nine different ip addresses. One of them is http://127.0.0.1:9999/ and none of them is the ip address of the machine that has xbvr installed on it. I’ve tried all of those addresses too and I still only get a blank screen.
Are you sure in DeoVR the address starts with http and not https? By default it’s https you need to click on it to and toggle to http. If you are using http, we need to narrow down the problem. In another machine (like your cellphone) open a web browser. Assuming your nas has IP address 192.168.0.5, try http://192.168.0.5:9999/. If you cannot see it, it maybe a firewall issue.
It’s very likely you didn’t change https in your headset’s DeoVR. So I’m guessing you are trying to connect to https://192.168.0.5:9999/ which obviously fails.
I’ve been using “http” and allowed xbvr through my firewall but I think I used the wrong ip address. I’ve now tried the IPv4 address in my machines wifi properties. In DeoVR I’ve got something that looks similar to the demo provided here https://imgur.com/a/PAyooc5 except for me it says “Recent” “Favorite” “Watchlist” and “Unmatched.” All of my videos are under “Unmatched” and and don’t have thumbnails which I guess is normal since they’re not available on any of the scrapers. The videos play, but my Handy is not moving. There’s also no interactive icon or message that a script is being sent to the Handy like on the videos I’ve downloaded directly onto the quest which work fine.
@darth_horny I should also add that the folders shared with xbvr are the same ones I use with ScriptPlayer so all of the scripts and videos have identical names.
I’m happy there are some progress. I have the same menu items as yours. I don’t remember I did something special for the scripts. Make sure that DeoVR is connected to the Handly. You should go to sexlikereal.com in DeoVR so you can see handy options in the settings. Then play a video using DLNA and finally using XBVR. As long as the name of videos and scripts matches there shouldn’t be any problem. Also double check that you copied all the scripts into Interactive folder in your headset.
