They had*.

After DEOVR stopped working several months ago, they removed the feature. Scripts were good and was nice cause not many other sites offer the videos AND the scripts included with your membership like that.

I reached out to them previously however they said issues were on the app developer’s end, not their end. So, thus the feature is no longer on their website.

The main problem I run into is not being able to stream scripts with the OSR2, Would use quest 2 with everything connected via JFP and it was fine but does not work anymore after the last major update on SLR. Because OSR and JFP are not considered supported devices, over at SLR they wont do anything to try and help.

I think you mean Virtualrealporn’s own player - VirtualRealPlayer (not DEOVR) was the app that stopped working right @imdamann888 ?

Virtualrealporn I believe used meta files, and years ago - Deovr never actually had support for those meta files

@anon99698472 - which app version/ phone / device / headset combination were you using prior?

@cViking1 - Is this happening even with @raser1 's latest update 4.0 here? = JoyFunPlayer 4.0 - OSR (TCode) Player - #57 by raser1

Literally 3 days ago working fine iPhone 8’s. One night it started to connect to the script then the icon disappeared. I reached out to them they said due to security issues. But still like damn

Same problem here @Realcumber, Handy is connected, no interactive icon anymore for videos that has been scripted. Using Oculus Go. A few days ago, everything worked just fine.

I believe I may still be on an older version, I will redownload the latest version ad give it a go, that may be my issue. Thanks for the reply.

(Tony) I’m really sorry about it. I can’t really tell you anything other than that the devs are working on it.

You can’t really expect me to give support for every third-party device and software that’s out there. We have no control over it or can fix issues that are not ours. Nor can I follow up on every piece of software some one puts on github.

22

SLR/DeoVR app versions older than 9.8 will no longer work with scripts due to security updates. If your device can’t update to 9.8 ask the device manufacturer to update their firmware/add support for it.

I’ve been using the SLR app on daydream with a pixel 3 for the screen and I can still stream video and connect handy but for some reason it no longer sends the scripts or displays the blue icon on any video with an interactive script even if I’ve already purchased it.

Mhmmm thought it was through both the feelconnect app and DEOVR but I could be mistaken.

Thanks for trying to help with what you can @Rakly3

For everyone else still having issues with slr interactive app and that has the Quest → Can you guys try this method a user just reported being able to work by sideloading the slr interactive apk directly onto the quest and report back if it helps?

I just upgraded my slr subscription to include scripts and now the interactive button disappeared on all my videos, even for all the scripts that I bought before upgrading. Using deovr on the oculus go and now I’m paying more and can’t use any scripts. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?

28

The whole interactive subscription was a shady mess from the beginning. You guys should request refund if it’s not working after all those months.

From the somewhat vague comments on their forum it seems they added security for the streaming scripts, and I think that’s probably smart… But they are leaving a whole bunch of subs in the lurch for an issue that they do not need to probably immediately address. So with v.10 if you have an old device you are basically screwed if you can’t update. There may just be no way to secure streaming scripts for old devices and I get that they don’t want people to rip the streaming ones, but it’s verging on a bit of an overreaction, especially doing it so quickly and with little notice. Although I guess they don’t want to say ‘hey scripts are super easy to capture so we are fixing it in 2 weeks’ lol.

So they are in a quandary, is it worth ruining the customer experience for people using old or unsupported devices (like maybe the OSR??? set up in certain ways from what I’ve seen) to protect their IP RIGHT NOW. IDK maybe, if their is a way to code without messing up those devices but it takes longer a few more weeks probably wouldn’t hurt. Guess we’ll see how it plays out.

download the videos instead of streaming them and use newer devices…u can literally get a good vr headset for like 300 nowadays and hard drives are super cheap as well…streaming is nowhere near as good as downloading the video and watching it

Getting your money or some equivalence thereof of what was spent back would involve someone taking an ethical approach to maintain their reputation. Not sure if they see it that way, would I be surprised if this didn’t resolve itself and my money spent pretty much now is some guys stream of income…no.
