 iVRy#7395 | It would need to be a board that decoupled the PD negotiation from the PS5->PSVR2 (or PC->PSVR2) link, and injected power. So, it would need to absorb the PD negotiation (so that it didn't get through to the host) and it would need to isolate the power so that the 12V didn't get injected into the host (and ensure the host PD didn't go anywhere). This is the only variation that would be useful, and it would be useful for now and future. | 11:09:25 |
| iVRy#7395 | It would of course need to pass through all other negotiations | 11:10:30 |
 JX35#4159 | Two FUSB302s, one for PS5/PC, one for PSVR2. Via firmware selectively send negotiations through or not or add custom messages. Add some power switching and possibly another FUSB for a USB-PD source. I can handle that HW-wise | 11:11:33 |
 thaytan#5292 | and also needs to deal with CC flipping and matching the right CC impedance to the upstream port | 11:11:40 |
| thaytan#5292 | to get the orientations to match | 11:11:48 |
| iVRy#7395 | That's a fun project for someone which will need to be done at some time. It's the "cheap" adapter for anyone that has a alt-DP capable USB-C port already (assuming of course there isn't some other magic the VL adapter is doing that we're not aware of). | 11:17:04 |
| iVRy#7395 | Anyone know a lot about AMD 6x00 implementations? I'm trying to find a 2 slot AMD card with a USB-C port. I've identified 3 potential cards, but they are impossible to find. These are the XFX cards that match my spec: RX-69TMATFD8, RX-68TMATFD8 & RX-68LMATFD8. The card needs to be max 40mm wide (ie. 2 slot, not 2.5 or whatever slot). | 11:21:28 |
| thaytan#5292 | I don't know "a lot", only about the one card I have been using. I have a GV-R69XT-16GC-B with USB-C port, but it's 49mm | 11:27:51 |
| iVRy#7395 | It needs to be 40mm to fit in the eGPU case I have. | 11:28:54 |
| iVRy#7395 | (and I'm not buying a new case for a card I will never really use) | 11:29:23 |
| thaytan#5292 | The extra height is all cooler / fans I think | 11:34:03 |
 rpavlik#1182 | Yeah speed on psvr stuff is glacial because I have more stuff to do than time to do it with client projects | 11:38:57 |
| rpavlik#1182 | And when the end of the day comes I don't have the energy or the time to do more with life stuff | 11:40:02 |
| rpavlik#1182 | Believe me I feel bad about every wip branch not merged but there's only so many hours in the day | 11:40:31 |
| rpavlik#1182 | Adding more guilt won't get it done faster, it's more likely to increase how much I avoid it to avoid confronting the guilt | 11:41:40 |
| rpavlik#1182 | I push my wip so somebody can pick it up and run with it if they have the time, not as a promise I'll find the time myself to do it | 11:42:48 |
| thaytan#5292 | yeah, push it 🙂 | 11:56:52 |
| iVRy#7395 | No guilt. Totally understand where you're at. | 11:57:00 |

| iVRy#7395 | SteamVR on PSVR2 | 11:57:31 |
| thaytan#5292 | well, that's quite a leap forward in an hour or so | 12:00:17 |
| iVRy#7395 | It is really SteamVR running on PSVR2, but check the date. | 12:01:21 |

| thaytan#5292 | oh, it's nearly Sunday here already. I forgot a bunch of the world is about to do their jokes | 12:05:55 |

| iVRy#7395 | I went for black PCBs to make them a bit more photogenic. | 13:01:23 |

| iVRy#7395 | No one wanted the VirtualLink adapter, so BizLink will keep it. I have confirmed with them that they will keep making the adapter for as long as people keep buying it. There are suggestions that Varjo may be EOLing it from their end. | 14:18:53 |
| thaytan#5292 | I've got a Varjo one in the post | 14:54:49 |
| iVRy#7395 | I think the business manager at BizLink China may have dropped more info than they intended to. I asked if BizLink has any intention to EOL the adapter, and they replied that it is Varjo, not BizLink that is EOLing it. In any case, there have been no recent changes to the adapter, so the "fresh" one is exactly the same as the Varjo ones. | 18:49:23 |
