 velocity7 | and what do i need to do, just switch to that resolution? | 10:04:33 |
 thaytan | Yes, that should also exercise it | 10:05:06 |
| velocity7 | ok gimme a min | 10:05:20 |
| velocity7 | hmm, i'm not getting the monitor to show up, only the USBs | 10:07:59 |
| thaytan | Linux or Windows? | 10:12:11 |
| velocity7 | windows 11 | 10:12:14 |
| thaytan | I wonder if they've made it so it's recognised as a VR display somehow | 10:12:49 |
 ivry.vr | I'll have a look at the EDID and report back. I may be able to provide a patched version (that could be loaded via CRU), that enables it as a monitor, but TBH have never tested that scenario, so can't say if it's possible. | 10:19:21 |
| thaytan | I don't see any extension in the EDID (like the microsoft one), but maybe there's a flag? | 10:20:23 |
| thaytan | or they quietly prearranged with nvidia to add it to a list | 10:20:58 |
| ivry.vr | Or maybe it's white-listed in the nVidia Windows driver. That would be shocking. | 10:21:07 |
| velocity7 | maybe i can try downloading the latest nvidia drivers | 10:21:33 |
| velocity7 | the last update was 2 days ago | 10:21:41 |
| velocity7 | * maybe i can try downloading the latest nvidia drivers (551.86) | 10:22:19 |
| ivry.vr | White-listed would mean it's set up to not be a monitor. You could test that with nVidia drivers from more than 1 year ago. Or just wait a few minutes while I check it out. | 10:22:27 |
| velocity7 | * the last update was 2 days ago, i'm currently on 551.52 | 10:22:46 |
| velocity7 | ok | 10:22:55 |
| ivry.vr | You can load up CRU and see if it's recognised there at all. | 10:24:39 |
| velocity7 | doesn't seem to be | 10:25:50 |
| thaytan | oh, I'm blind | 10:28:57 |
| thaytan | Vendor-Specific Data Block (Microsoft), OUI CA-12-5C:
Version: 2
Display Product Primary Use Case: 7 (Virtual reality headset)
Container ID: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
| 10:29:06 |
| thaytan | It's right there - they added a MS VSDB entry | 10:29:16 |
| velocity7 | ah... | 10:29:22 |
| velocity7 | alright, anything more i can do on my end? | 10:29:27 |
| thaytan | Use Linux? 😉 | 10:31:36 |
| velocity7 | lol | 10:31:40 |
| thaytan | We can make a EDID without that, or @iVRy's driver might be able to do the direct access needed on Windows? | 10:32:09 |
| ivry.vr | Well, if we needed even more proof that this wasn't accidental and actually indicates PCVR usage, it does contain the MS vendor extension for VR headsets, with the same value I was playing around with (but invalid GUID, doesn't seem to matter). | 10:33:53 |
| ivry.vr | Download PSVR2_VR_EDID.bin | 10:35:17 |
| ivry.vr | Here is an updated EDID with the extension removed. It might be possible to use CRU or some other method to override the EDID, but I wouldn't hold my breath on that. | 10:35:17 |
