Downloaded 3D 360 videos? - Samsung Gear VR

Hi guys. I have some 3D 360 videos downloaded on my phone and I would like to know where to place the files in order for them to show in Oculus Cinema and for them to play correctly? I know where to place standard 3D movies and standard 360 videos, just not 3D 360 videos. Thanks for any help guys.

YouTube HD App?

Well, this is actually my first Android Phone, I've only used a Android Tablet before and my tablet had a YouTube App with an HD, not a HQ, function.
So my Question: Is there a YouTube HD App for android 2.3.5/6?
HQ kinda sucks on the note screen.
why use an app when you have a browser? just go on youtube.com, choose your video and choose the resolution for it there.

For some reason the newer version of the YouTube app does not offer the HQ option...so you will have to go back to the 2.1.6 version...
Find a jetvd apk, it's no longer in the android market, you can choose hd there and stream through your video player in hd (you can also use it to download youtube vids in hd) . HQ on the official app is only 480p no HD option so far. I also would be interested in hearing about any other apps that can stream HD youtube vids.

This is awesome, not a complete replacement for the youtube app but better than nothing and still a bit more comfortable than the browser
Jetvd gets to available options screen, I touch the thumbnail and nothing happens. I set a download folder and Im on wifi. So far jetvd sucks. J/k just cant get it to work.
Try Tubemate from the App Store. Dunno if its full HD but choosing the highest setting looks pretty cool on the Note, way better than the YouTube app. Being able to download vids is a nice bonus.

Guess I was referring to HQ. Tried I screenshot and the video didn't show for some reason. Shame because it was a good one

tubemate is good, it lets you download or stream in any resolution available for the video. I prefer to download the videos in 720p or 1080P and play back that way if I want to watch it again I keep it saving future bandwidth and it looks much better then HQ in the yt app which is probably only 480P.
You can view yt in browser in desktop mode and select resolution but going full screen generally is a pain and doesn't look as good as a 720P or higher download in tubemate. Best to get tubemate from the official site tubemate.net as there are dodgy versions around even been some bad infected ones on market apparently according to the aps developer.

http://dvdcatalyst.com its on sale right now for 50% off at 9.95. I've used it for every device I have. While those apps can play the high quality HD movies, this converts it to the optimum size and quality for each any device you have. I swear by this program. its awesome.
Try Handbrake. I don't watch videos on my tablet, but Handbrake is a good and it's both free and open source, and I've used it in the past. Search their forum for what settings to use.

Play QHD Youtube videos on N6?

Has anyone figured out how to play youtube videos at a higher resolution than 1080p? If I open a youtube video that says its 4k, and tap on the settings gear in the app the highest option I get is 1080p. Any ideas?
I don't think the YouTube app has 4k capabilities yet

Any 3d movie will play in 3d in the cinema app but so far the 360 video sites all seem to be of the adult variety

You are not correct.

Quite few are available. You may have to use video downloader extension for your browser. You can even find some 3D 360 videos.

You can download the mp4 file but the GVR doesn't seem to see it. Does it need that .pvr file?
You need to move file to oculus/360videos folder
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
I did. Videos still don't show up.
Use stock video player and try to play that video. If is playable then oculus player will play it too. If not then you need to reconvert it to mp4 with mp3 sound. Easy way to check: use stock file manager, go to oculus -> 360videos and if tumbnail of video in question is visible then video should play, if has basic icon then needs to be reconverted.

Yes, but will it play as a 360 video without the extra file? I do not believe so.

They will play. If you noticed in my screenshot there are some videos without matching pvr file. I believe pvr file is tumbnail for video. Videos without pvr will have blue square as tumbnail in 360 video but they will play once selected.

Thanks. That worked but I'm having the same problem as with all the 360 videos, the focus is terrible. Is that the nature of 360 videos or something else? The focus seems to be really awful compared to still images or even regular video. Perhaps because 3D video captures less information for each view than regular video?
You can find some sharper videos. A lot has to do with compression and file size. They never going to be completly sharp on our screens. Each eye receives information from less than half of phone screen and magnification itself will blur picture. It may change with 8k displays Higher resolution 360 videos may have dimensions around 4k x 2k pixels and quality is better.

He means it costs only Re.1 (INR).. 1 cent will be in USD currency. The thing is Amazon India is doing a giveaway of the Oneplus VR to its Indian customers.

That,I don't know,mate Since Moto G3 doesn't have gyroscope,I don't think any VR equipment will work with it. Better you change your phone. By the way,Moto G4 contains gyroscope.

I have the Google Cardboard. I tried it in on the Moto G 3 here what I can tell:
Only about 1/4 of the content actually works, pretty much all high quality VR content requires the gyroscope.
You can watch videos and even play a few games but its very hard to find them. The Google Play Store says any VR app is not compatible with your device, you need to download their APK from somewhere else to install and try the Game, and most of the times it will just crash for the lacking gyro.
Resuming: the Moto G is not really a VR Device, only with tricks and it is still not a decent experience.
there's no gyro in the phone you can only watch movies and it's not good beacuse of the 720p display, i just tried the Google cardboard

I am testing an Xposed module which is VirtualSensor, It uses the accelerometer and the compass to emulate the gyroscope. I don't have any VR headset yet, but it has been working pretty well on 360° videos, and in StreetView, as well with a testing app which has a few games. By the way, it's not working in every single app which requires gyroscope, but I guess the developer is doing his/her best to make it the most efficient as possible.
If anybody here has a VR headset, try it!
I play 360º videos and youtube streams with "VR Player (free)".
Just chose "acelerometer and compass" in the config
