Hi folks,

Just wondering why there is no music in the 80's 90's and a few other channels on my oculus quest 2 tv app, is it a regional thing or what as videos play ok?

On a lighter note my avatar seems to have changed sex...lol how do I go about fixing that as well.

Thanks
Joe

Hi Joe,

I have never used the TV app, so can't help you there.

As for the Avatar, you should be able to change your Avatar by going into the navigation menu and selecting edit Avatar. I don't think you can select male or female though. Can't remember exactly, but I don't think they have any genders?

Yep. Exactly what was happening with me. Are you running windows 10?

Windows 11, but my phone fast charges ok using the same lead and USB connection. Both win 11 and Oculus are up to date..

I don’t have to even be on the same floor as my router for this to work flawlessly with my quest and windows 11.

The problem is with windows 11 and Airlink not your router.

My replacement head strap just arrived... along with a new carry case!

So now I have two cases.

I'm going to try to repair the old strap and if that works I might get another Quest 2 for local MP, and sell or pass on my Quest 1.

ShiWarrior · 5 May 2022 at 16:21

they gave you a free case? that's :cool:

hope the new strap holds up better for you

Thanks!
It's obvious the strap is from a newer batch. There are more manufacturer markings on the brackets, and the battery lead feels softer and smoother.

Also the new case has a couple of differences. The zip pull is much more robust, and there are markings in the controller holder to show which way round the controllers go.

If I can I'd rather save my money for Project Cambria if that's 100% Quest compatible. I've got a feeling that's going to be stupidly expensive though.

yeah, cumbria is going to around 1K mark and designed for business users

Intended for business use, but likely also a very nice high-end gaming headset too due to the displays.

I could conceivably sell my Index if Cambria is good enough. The main issue is the link quality vs the Index display port. You'd hope Cambria would have a display port connection.

ShiWarrior · 5 May 2022 at 16:45

ah i see
hmmm food for thought, if its that good, id be tempted, even though i would rather not fund Meta, id prefer a Index 2

Ravenger · 5 May 2022 at 16:53

Index 2 would be great - if I could have an Index with wireless and higher resolution then I'd go for that. Unfortunately it's radio silence from Valve about an Index 2.

It does connect with my Windows 11 but it stutters a great deal..

Yeah, stuttering is the main problem with Airlink and windows 11. But, some people don't have any issues at all, for others it won't connect at all. And it doesn't seem to make a difference what router is been used.

Your run of luck continues!! First in Walkabout Golf and now with your RMA.

Always nice to get something for nothing from these big companies.

Is there another way to get recordings off the device without posting on your Facebook? I'm sure I could plug it into my PC, but wondered if there is a more lazy solution.

Sidequest. Really easy to access and what I use when uploading videos to YouTube.

It syncs to your phone

Or just plug it in

The quest 2 has been out for quite a while now and I'm toying with the idea of buying one for a bit of vr gaming. I'm looking at getting some games with good replayability value.

Have they shaped up to be a good bit of kit?
