Hey Lauren yep that's exactly what I'm getting this for - my Q2 arrives on the 5th. My bestie now lives halfway across the USA from me and she's going to get one too so we can be 'together' again. CAN'T WAIT to sit in the theater with her and watch movies
I was super disappointed after trying to watch movies on quest 2. Playing online games? It's all about screaming 12 year olds and roblox gang. This was enough for me, I sell the device on eBay.
@@BarryFromEastenders Well since you would be diminishing your field of view to include the "theater" experience (The room, the seats, the fake popcorn etc) wouldn't that be a less immersive experience? Why would you want to simulate a cinema and make the field of view smaller? If you want it so badly it can be done, however I don't think someone made an application like that yet.
Thanks for this! Netflix etc need to get their VR act together. I think companies are jaded from the 2018 hype peak. Quest totally needs a Twitch app also.
It will be awesome if they'll ad some sort of supporting apps overlaying, bc if you stream playing from headset, not from pc, you can't really have access to chat while playing
I hope so much that streaming services pick up 3D content (again) (Netflix had support for a while when 3D TVs were a novelty, but shut it down after low adoption) now that VR is on the rise that would get such a huge and growing market
paying for one or two movies in bigscreen from time to time is fine, but over time that could add up and streaming service type of deal would be much appreciated - by me at least and I think I speak here for many others as well
@@SummerSkyGal Me too! I bought a Samsung 3D tv in 2013 which was incredible. It works like a charm to this day, but I llent it to a friend since I needed something larger after all this time. We still have a 3D projector in our living room, though, which is awesome for watching Dune or something. 3D Blu-rays are also pretty cheap in my experience. Way cheaper than 4K. It's just a bit sad they don't include a 2D disc anymore most of the time. 3D never got old for me.
Have you had any issues with 3D content? The OU vids I've tried look sort of backward like the background comes to the front ahead of items in the foreground. SBS 3D videos seems to work better,
@@jeffreywilliamson4863 That means the right and left are swapped. You used to have 3D books that had the same problem. If you looked cross eyed it would look inverted.
I bought a quest 2 two weeks ago. and i streamed from my pc two Star War movies from my Disney+ channel on my PC using Firefox. I Feaked out. I was in a cinema watching a movie in a big screen with an astounding resolution...i was'nt in a simple room. It felt as i was in a thue cinema and the image quality was astounding.
meanwhile I actually prefer watching 3D movies on my Q2 over watching the same movie in 2D on my 4K TV even though the resolution is worse, the 3D effect is so good that the experience as a whole is way more immersive and can only get better in future headsets with even higher resolution
@@lukalabudovic5385 the display itself yes, but the perceived resolution is a whole different story because: 1) you see only half of the pixels per eye 2) the image of a movie would be way too big to watch if it took up your entire FOV of around 90 degrees the rule of thumb for the best viewing experience of a movie is that it should take up around 45 degrees of your horizontal FOV (if you went bigger you would have to move your head too much to see everything) so if you do all the calculations you end up with about 916x515 pixels for a 16x9 aspect ratio image for a comfortable 45 degrees viewing angle I just now realized as well that with the current resolution we can only watch movies in a quality that is something in between the usual 480p and 720p resolutions but in defence of the Q2 it somehow still feels more impressive than that - like rather something between 720p and 1080p, leaning more towards 1080p
While I do like Bigscreen for what it is, I have one major complaint which actually sounds like it might have been fixed in an update that you mentioned. The issue I have is while setting up a room and inviting someone to come watch, our movies are not synced. My mom and I have tried to watch movies in bigscreen at least 3 times since we have had our Quest 2's and every time I set up the room and when she gets in I will start playing the movie but only mine starts. Even if both of our headsets start playing at the same time we eventually get a 3-5 second if not more of a gap between what we are seeing.
It is because you are the ones streaming. The data from the PC will go to your headset because you own the room, and from your headset, you will broadcast now the data to all other people to see. That's why you see the movie first before others even you both lives in the same house or same network.
I just bought 2 of these rigs for my husband and I to play golf together. It's getting too cold to play outside (Canada) and I wanted something fun to do inside. We also watch tons of movies. Can't wait to try the cinema feature out as a group!!! New subbie.
There is also the Remote Desktop, if you do not like to load files to your Quest2. I use VLC to play movies and adjust colors, as I think the color of screen is too much on the red side.
I'm still using my Google Gear headset by Oculus.. Just for the theater experience and I love it. The up side to that old original tech is I can put an sd card in my phone and have tons of full length feature films without killing my phone memory.. Down side,,, One theater choice. I'm leaning heavily towards getting the quest 2, primarily for theater.... This video has really pushed me towards taking the leap.. Watching a movie on the big screen in bed is really relaxing...
Excellent BMFVR. I utilize Bigscreen quite often. I do plug it in because it helps with stability with huge file sizes and the bandwidth required to play them, a 4K movie for example or a full Remux of a 1080p requires some horsepower that Airlink just can't seem to handle easily yet (I think it's limited to 100Mbps?) but more importantly I use it in remote desktop so the sound plays through my surround sound system in the office 😁 3D ? Forget aboot it, absolutely crazy nice. I've stuck with 3D Plasma/Projector as an avid watcher and this version of 3D is just crazy great. Thanks for sharing.
Who cares if this was in the style of an ad? It’s clearly sick 😳🔥 never tried VR before, but I’m buying a Quest this week now based off of this video.. so just shut up, haters.
Doesn't low resolution of these oculus devices creste issue? I got oculus go few years back to watch 3d movies and so poor was the quality of image, i returnef it back.
I haven't used it for a few months but I love to watch shows and movies with my son in Perth but we found that with most of the content we could not hear sound. I'm taking about shows and movies that we have downloaded to our PC's, has anyone else had this problem?
I went into Big Screen for the first time 2 days ago and I have to say that there were people in there that were rude and kept talking during the movie. I learned that I would have to just invite my friends! Other than that, it’s great! Great video! I actually learned something! Thanks!
@@cookieface80 it wasn’t that they were just talking, they were talking so loud that I couldn’t hear the movie. I didn’t know about muting. People don’t usually talk at a movie theater.
HI, GREAT VIDEO, THANKS. PLEASE ANSWER MY QUESTION, MANY UA-camRS DO NOT ANSWER QUESTIONS. I JUST AT THIS MOMENT BOUGHT A QUEST 2 PACKAGE FROM AMAZON. IM 79 YEARS OLD WITH A HUGE COMPUTER ROOM IN MY APARTMENT. IN FACT, MY WHOLE APARTMENT IS NOTHING BUT LARGE COMPUTER MONITORS IN ALL ROOMS. I BOUGHT THE QUEST 2 ONLY TO WATCH MOVIES ON THE BIG SCREEN. NOTHING MORE. I DONT WANT TO HANG OUT WITH PEOPLE OR BE IN CROWDED THEATERS, ETC. I MOVED TO HAWAII TO GET THE HELL AWAY FROM PEOPLE. WHAT ELSE WILL I NEED TO DO THIS, SOME TYPE OF DVD PLAYER? OR OTHER EQUIPMENT? THANKS AGAIN.
When streaming and watching a movie or TV show, is it just the movie, or is it like you're in a theater? I just want to be able to lie down and watch a movie or TV show, and have it be right in my face.
I am so blown away by this! I have the Quest 3 and it's an incredible experience! I am seriously thinking of getting another unit like the quest 2 for my Wife or my Father to use and enjoy this together! ✌🏻😊
Dude this is just the best creation ever. Imagine just sitting in your garage smoking up a blunt and putting this on chillin watching a movie WHILE HIGH IN VR! Like this makes me want to bust my ass at work fr
The prime app is petty good, though I have had the occasional problem of if it crashing if I leave during a video. It is a bit slow too. Don't think it has been optimized for q2
Hi Thank for sharing......Question....I have a 65ich TV Sony Brava...since Sept 22......Need to know 1-...if my TV is ready for a VR 2-...and wich VR is the Best for Cinema Movie
I wish I could somehow connect to a DVD player, I have so many home movies I burned from VHS to DDVD that would be awesome to see in VR, I still watch them all the time. If there were a way to do that, like use my Series X to watch disk based movies I'd buy one.
Rented Top Gun Maverick on UA-cam yesterday, tried to watch it on Bigscreen VR but only got 480p, same in Virtual Desktop and UA-cam app in Bigscreen...but the trailer on UA-cam is 1080p...WTF! 😟
probably the best option to stream movies is to use the airlink to apple, and use the air pods with spatial sound, or some decent headphones plugged into the headset and streaming from pc or mac.
I checked out Bigscreen the other night for the first time and checked out 3D trailer room. There was some kid in their making ghost sounds and I immediately got out. Haha.
Yes the screen is bigger but not has clear as watching on my 65" OLED TV. Plus the Quest 2 isn't as good as the original Quest was in the dark Bigscreen environments. Any dark scenes on the Quest 2 shows blacks as dark grey. I will say that they did a great job with the 3D content.
I think it is a waste to take up space for VR envirnoments. I just wanna maximize the screen size. How do we do that? When I use the Quest 2 browser, I get a huge fullscreen youtube screen size. But it's tiny for using the netflix app. So, question, how can we maximize netflix screen size?
love your video, BUT i had a big problem i downloaded some tv show and movies, upload to my quest 2 and when i was in the plane, no one had sound, i wished to know, about what codecs this app supports, so in my case all the video file with ac3 dolby was not compatible, any list of the codecs that this app suport?, thanks.
If you have a router then you might be able to connect a hdd or ssd and with DNLA you'll be able to stream directly to Q2 and Bigscreen if you're lucky. Doubt you can connect one directly to the USB-C on the Q2 (that's just my guess.)
I disagree with you about the Netflix out it works just fine in my opinion. For me I feel like Netflix should offer more ways to watch than just that room where you're sitting in front of a big 70 plus inch TV. They should give you a cinema if you want to a bedroom basically everything that big screen offers and so should prime video.
I don’t mind the Netflix either. The main hate is the max resolution of 480p which is dvd quality. I think the prime video app is great. I’ll try big screen tonight
@@litrpgre-roll7929 yeah you have a point I wish it was slightly higher but I manage just fine I guess. The prime video works just fine as well just needs more rooms as well. With big screen you have like 12 different rooms you can pick from but the issue with that is if you don't have a computer it's hard for you to use remote desktop to stream movies to it. It's not impossible because you can download movies to your phone and download DLNA server and watch movies that way. But honestly my real opinion is that you should be able to change the viewing angles in which you watch movies other than having to use the void theater
hi any chance you can do an update on bigscreen since recent update its been bad they have blocked full screen to watch youtube and cant watch netflix through pc anymore im sure theres more apps ect that dont work
I absolutely love the app and it has UA-cam but I have an account which has all my movies can I bought so many couple friends can watch movies that I have I love it because not only watch the movie but also talk and hang out big screen is definitely worth it if you want to watch movies with your friends in VR
Frankly, if you have enough money for the Quest 3, go for it directly because it comes with numerous new features that enhance video quality. I just ordered the Quest 2 a few days ago, mostly due to budget reasons and because, for a first VR experience, I prefer going for something less expensive. Nonetheless, I could keep you updated on the video quality of the Quest 2, considering I’m a total beginner in this field.
hi I have a question for you can't seem to find the answer anywhere thought you might know and help out! I have bigscreen on the quest 2 and saw you can watch youtube in it now so I called my friend so we could watch together but when I play something she said that it just says video restricted by the owner on a black screen or something like that and it only happens on youtube videos any idea what could be going on?
I can guarantee your not watching raw uncompressed 3d video. The machine to play such a video would have to be a beast and your storage would have to be of a ridiculous size for one video.
@@tony2707 I understand your meaning… once for the disk and second for the mkv. However, there is a way to play it on the headset without a third compression which is most commonly done (mp4). Where artifacts are clearly visible. Without this third compression, artifacts are not visible at all. It’s very clear and looks very sharp for 1080p.
If my friend had this too and invited me to something he was watching or vice versa, could we hear each other speak? That being our only connection, no other link up, just an invite to one another's screen. Also unless I missed it, if I was watching something from my media vi usb (or internal storage), could i still invite someone in my screen to view the same video? Thanks.

the rule of thumb for the best viewing experience of a movie is that it should take up around 45 degrees of your horizontal FOV (if you went bigger you would have to move your head too much to see everything)
so if you do all the calculations you end up with about 916x515 pixels for a 16x9 aspect ratio image for a comfortable 45 degrees viewing angle

In the big screen app is there a way to watch it while I’m in a recliner and not sitting straight up
i need to know something...ok say im watching peacock network and i wanna watch it in VR using my computer and headset ...can i do that

@@litrpgre-roll7929 yeah you have a point I wish it was slightly higher but I manage just fine I guess. The prime video works just fine as well just needs more rooms as well. With big screen you have like 12 different rooms you can pick from but the issue with that is if you don't have a computer it's hard for you to use remote desktop to stream movies to it. It's not impossible because you can download movies to your phone and download DLNA server and watch movies that way. But honestly my real opinion is that you should be able to change the viewing angles in which you watch movies other than having to use the void theater
Netflix does have an option to watch in plain black space. It's the option top left of the TV. Not immediately obvious.
hi any chance you can do an update on bigscreen since recent update its been bad they have blocked full screen to watch youtube and cant watch netflix through pc anymore im sure theres more apps ect that dont work
I absolutely love the app and it has UA-cam but I have an account which has all my movies can I bought so many couple friends can watch movies that I have I love it because not only watch the movie but also talk and hang out big screen is definitely worth it if you want to watch movies with your friends in VR
Is there an app without being in a room/theatre?
Was very nice for an on-board app. Thanks for the suggestion.
Still love skybox and use it daily but I'm waiting for the IMAX screen update.
Thos was such an awesome, to the point and entertaining video! Thanks!!!
Hi, is it possible to watch movies from my blu ray player?
Should one upgrade Q2 to Q3 if uses this device only for movie watching?
Frankly, if you have enough money for the Quest 3, go for it directly because it comes with numerous new features that enhance video quality. I just ordered the Quest 2 a few days ago, mostly due to budget reasons and because, for a first VR experience, I prefer going for something less expensive. Nonetheless, I could keep you updated on the video quality of the Quest 2, considering I’m a total beginner in this field.
sflix had every movie thx so much
hi I have a question for you can't seem to find the answer anywhere thought you might know and help out!
I have bigscreen on the quest 2 and saw you can watch youtube in it now so I called my friend so we could watch together but when I play something she said that it just says video restricted by the owner on a black screen or something like that and it only happens on youtube videos any idea what could be going on?
Lol that word salad bible quote that pops up
One of my favorite apps.
Watching uncompressed 3D movies in VR is the ultimate experience!!! I love it 🥰
I can guarantee your not watching raw uncompressed 3d video. The machine to play such a video would have to be a beast and your storage would have to be of a ridiculous size for one video.
@@tony2707 I rip the 3D disk using MakeMKV and stream it directly in bigscreen without any further compression. Looks awesome!
@@volt8ge thats not only not uncompressed but thats compressed twice
@@tony2707 I understand your meaning… once for the disk and second for the mkv. However, there is a way to play it on the headset without a third compression which is most commonly done (mp4). Where artifacts are clearly visible. Without this third compression, artifacts are not visible at all. It’s very clear and looks very sharp for 1080p.
@@volt8ge That sounds pretty cool! What do you use for streaming it?
If my friend had this too and invited me to something he was watching or vice versa, could we hear each other speak? That being our only connection, no other link up, just an invite to one another's screen. Also unless I missed it, if I was watching something from my media vi usb (or internal storage), could i still invite someone in my screen to view the same video? Thanks.
hi i have a question currently i have a very potato laptop and i was wondering should i buy pc first then quest 2 or other way around ?
Quest because of the standalone games you can play while you save up.
Van you do this alone too like an private cinema
I LOVE BIGSCREEN!!! Such a fun app
I can finally watch UP with my friends! 🥺🙂
Great movie!
i have installed plex on my linux pc but oculus quest 2 doesn't detect any dlna, can you make a whole video on connecting a plex media in bigscreen ?
Love this
Can you stream Netflix or Disney plus in big screen?
