vrr

vr (screen) repeater

takes your screen and repeats it into vr

everything is Work In Progress status, and is tailored for my machine (hardcoded h264_vaapi, for example. could have codec compatibility code in the future /shrug)

is not planned to be a full app, be distributed on stores, etc. its for me.

its not even ready for build. i'm leaving the build instructions for myself, if i forget.

architecture

• your machine runs two pieces of code
  • vrr server (TODO: rename to agent? streamer?)
  • https://github.com/aler9/rtsp-simple-server
• your headset (which can be still your machine) runs the vrr client
  • a lovr app that uses https://github.com/lun-4/lovr-rtsp to connect to your machine

setup (server-side)

TODO actually make urls configurable. this doesn't work

• python 3.10
• https://python-poetry.org/
• https://github.com/aler9/rtsp-simple-server

git clone ...
cd vrr/server
poetry install
poetry run src/main.py

setup (client-side)

BROKEN BUILD AHEAD: NEEDS MORE CARE (like how to fetch the quest 2 3d models, or getting penlight into this repo. all is cursed, will not work on anything).

• https://ziglang.org
• https://github.com/lun-4/lovr-rtsp

linux x86

cd vrr/client
# build and copy rtsp.so to this folder, as directed in the lovr-rtsp README
path/to/lovr .

quest 2

(will not work on any machine other than mine. do not attempt. will not provide support to others attempting to do so at the moment. maybe in the future)

# on the build process for quest (https://lovr.org/docs/Compiling),
# set the path to this folder in the relevant cmake command. build your apk
# while also following lovr-rtsp's process, and you'll be done.
cd vrr/client
