UPDATE: Here is my list of all games for Quest -20%: games.thomasvoland.com. I tested this also with 1m extension cable and it works perfectly, I did also limited testing of 3m and for now it was okay. I added Quest Link chapter on vr.thomasvoland.com with links to all cables etc.
I watched this video and then ordered this card. It arrived surprisingly quickly from China and I have been using it for the past couple days. It works great! Thank you so much for sharing! You just have to ensure it is connected in the orientation that results in a USB 3 .0 connection as you explained in the video. Input delay is very low. Perhaps not as low as a TV, but probably the absolute best possible. Now all Meta has to do is allow for the screen size to be modifiable and it will be perfect! Thanks again for sharing!!
@@Thomas_Voland Thanks - I’m on v68 so maybe that’s why. However, I just remembered the Switch Distance button on the taskbar(!) and tried it - and wow! BOTW looks great on such a big screen! This is plenty fine. I’m always impressed with Meta products increasing in value via software updates like this HDMI Link feature.
After some time using this I have discovered a bit of an issue. I tried connecting this Hagibis card between my external head strap battery and the Quest (zip tied to the side), keeping it connected persistently, and it resulted in the power being depleted from the Quest when not in use. I do not know the reason why. However my guess is that it may be also depleting the external battery power when not in use. I think the other card you recently introduced may be a better solution, as it would not be used in conjunction with an external battery. So in other words, the new card may be a more elegant solution more suitable for this technology’s more commonly used use case. Also, just a note, I have seen a quality issue with this card’s USB connector. The cable (outer sheath) and connector seem to be separating. This could be due to my use, however it is surprising to see it happen so soon after purchase.
@@yokkabai Every device in standby mode is draining power, however if there is any issue with quality of the device, maybe it's possible to replace it. I am using this for a long time, I traveled with this setup for a few weeks and card still looks like new, the same with other Hagibis card (I have model with and without PD).
Ordered. Thanks! I previously purchased a Guermok one on Amazon that seemed to have issues and only ran at 3-5 fps, so I returned it. FYI, the Aliexpress shipping will take awhile depending on where you live. For me, it's about 2 1/2 weeks.
I got the BENFEI capture card for £15 has the exact same specs as in the video while running games. In my opinion these captures cards around this price range are ok, good quality for money but there are draw backs. Zelda TOTK running on a switch will run perfectly fine using these types of capture cards on the quest 3. BUT running ps5 games with more complex textures etc do tend to show latency issues. I tested a few games like MW3, Red dead 2, no mans sky and a couple others. Red dead online had significant latency issues, most likely with the lack of settings to offset the issue. MW3 was better but not perfect, mostly due to the ability to offset latency by removing motion blur and other related image performance aspects that can cause such frame rate drops or latency issues. No mans sky had similar noticeable latency but was pretty good. Like i said, good quality for money, picture quality is great but playing games on ps5 etc will highlight the obvious draw backs for the price range. Not sure how much better the more high end capture cards are, i haven’t tested them. But hey, still a massive move by quest adding this feature and definitely looking forward to more added features in the future!
@@hensc.873george6 Is HDR still turned on on PS5 in the games with these issues? (Quest doesn't support HDR anyway), did you changed sound settings to stereo? I don't have PS5 so I can't check it.
@@Thomas_Voland yeah picture quality was decent but not like something that actually supports HDR. Didn’t make any adjustments to audio. Just had to switch HDCP off to allow it to run on quest 3.
Great video, I ordered mine to the UK. Took just shy of two weeks to arrive. I was able to use it to connect to my SKY Q mini box and also my iPhone 15 pro max over usb c. Also ordered the other single cable from your other video which is still in transit.
Well for those that would like to use this with their shield and Sonos surround system. It works like a charm and having the sound quality of sonos speakers while watching the movie from shield in the headset is awesome. Note I didn't experience any lag. Requirements as above in addition to hagibis, you also need Arcana Fury HD, headset connected to hagibis via Arcana HD fury hdmi out, Arcana is connected to shield via hdmi in and Sonos system is connected to Arcana via earc out. My sonos setup is sound bar, eras. All works fine, if anyone wants a video let me know. I have been searching for a long time to play video via headset but have sound come out and in sync via my Sonos system. Awesome!
Works perfect with iphone 12 pro max with lightning adapter. Been looking for a long while to view iptv on quest and this is the way plus seems to take way way less battery via input to quest 3. Thank you.
@@Thomas_Voland Ho I see, I was thinking you were testing the meta quest HDMI Link App, (released 4 hours after your video) VS USB Camera app. Is there any diferences? Usb camera does 2k30 fps, i believe ?
@@polnareffemichel9722 USB camera is customizable - you can change format, frame rate and resolution which is useful mostly for worst cards. For the one which I showed both apps are okay.
I ordered this on aliexpress for $28 CAD. Instead of my quest 3 hardly being used, I now play my PS3 in 1080p 60fps on my quest 3, works great with steam deck, and a pc hdmi as well. Best accessory hands down only downsides is the cables sometimes get in the way, and its not a right/left angled type c, but ill buy an adapter soon
Tested this card with YUY2 1920x1080 video and the video was 10 FPS maximum, which was unwatchable. Good image quality though. MJPG is 50-60 FPS at 1920x1080 but I find the video looks blurry now, especially since the v71 update! HAGiBiS reckons that the USB 3.0 interface on the Meta Quest 3 is being restricted to less than 5Gbps which would cause a lower YUY2 video frame rate. Not sure why Meta would do this? What frame rate do you currently get with 1920x1080 YUY2 video using the HAGiBiS card? Cheers 👍
That would be a cool use case but I don't think it would work. Maybe if there was a splitter or something. Wait a minute it might work if you buy a 3D Blu-ray player for PC and use the HDMI connection to your headset or Virtual Desktop.
So if you're running an hdmi cable and power cable into the capture card, the headset will charge and recieve hdmi at the same time? Do you need the hdmi adapter to keep the headset charging?
I just tried it on the quest 2, the image quality and framerate was great, but no matter how i plugged anything it would not charge my headset. I tried pluggin just the card to the headset, the card with a charger in the PD port, nothing
Hello friend... I ordered that video capture card ... I have a question... how you install 3rd party apps in meta quest 3? Like usb camera? I cannot find it.. and netflix app ? And more?
Mine arrived this week and it’s brilliant. Only slight downside is the sound is quite low when it’s plugged into my iPhone. It’s great when attached to my Xbox so I’m assuming it’s something I’m doing wrong.
I presume this would also work connecting a shield via the hdmi port, via the capture card as mentioned. As I have sonos set up with the shield, I could have sound come out of my surround speakers and just watch video in headset. Of course it depends on what latency is like.
Thanks for the video! I just ordered mine today. Could you share the brand of the head strap that you are using? I think it is more comfortable than the Bobo Vr with an open-face interface.
Hello, I have a question: I have a PC with a VGA output. There are VGA/HDMI adapters. Would this work with my Meta Quest 3S headset connected to the video capture card + HDMI cable + HDMI/VGA adapter and finally my PC. Thank you for answering me.
@@_makpowa_ i can’t measure it, but I didn’t notice any lag. Why do you think that other card would be better? Which exactly model do you have in mind?
Just arrived from your link. I am very impressed. I've waited for a long time to use my deck in my quest. One question. Is 1080p the max resolution of this set up using quest 3 and the capture card? Thank you for the video I might just stick with my Nreal Airs for flat games. If I can get PCVR games on Steam to work through Geforce Now, then I will be rocking that way. So is 1080p max resolution? I set it to 2k I think in SD settings but nothing happened, display still read as 1080p.
Yes 1080p is maximum resolution. 2K is almost the same resolution (2048x1080), so there is no difference really. However I known some people use "2K* wrong, thinking that's 2560x1440 px. This you can't get.
What's the size of the screen you can have via HDMI link for playstation or Nintendo games? Can I have the same cinema experience like with UA-cam app on the Quest or screen is smaller for external input?
Can i use that for an elgato's camlink output? i just wanted to get the source image from Meta Quest 3 into a PC which is going to get the output to an OBS Transmission... Please help me with that question :)
Hi :) You wrote on your webseite: "2.For connecting everything, including devices with USB-C video port and charging them and also Quest at the same time (Smartphone, ROG Ally, MacBook etc): Needed hardware: Hagibis USB 3.0 60 Hz with PD port + cable [Hagibis 4K@60Hz with PD port + extension cable"
I've tried this exact setup and can't seem to get an image on the Quest. Looks like the switch display turns off when connected which means it works as expected but no image to vr meaning either the quest or faulty capture card. Does this need any drivers?
Check Anker from this list, it's good enough even for ROG Ally etc: www.amazon.com/shop/thomasvoland/list/20HD2HBFYUMIY?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_aipsflist_E2Z87AZAT7WRX9BXX2YS
How is the input lag? I've tried playing through a nicer Elgato capture card before on my PC and the lag was high enough to be bothersome in a lot of games.
i just bought the hagibis video capture card and usv-c ro hdmi adapter. i connect via meta quest link, but i get no audio nor image (black screen). i see the information on the lower right as you described (YUYV 1920x1080 @60fps). permission seems fine. What should i do?
@Thomas_Voland How to enter full screen mode with HDMI Link app? It’s always windowed with the title “HDMI Link” in the upper middle and grey borders.😢
Can you briefly explain, what about your capture card of choice makes it particularly suited for this purpose? It seems like there could be others that are similar and also available much sooner than that one. Which features are we looking for in a similar capture card?
@@PhoggHawk you can still buy it here with free delivery almost anywhere in the world: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DkhBgjZ Specifications of HDMI cards are usually full of lies so without testing it impossible to known. We need real USB 3.0, YUY2 60Hz FullHD without lags, with Power Delivery port.
@@Thomas_Volandhmm perhaps mine is defective then. I bought USB-A/USB-C PD 100W 4K 1080P USB 3.0 Hagibis Capture Card Model UHC07P along with model UHC10. Tried power into both adapters and still get a black screen with Quest HDMI Link. I do get the YUY2 1280 60Hz notification in the bottom right. I tried it with a Switch (Non OLED) and a Steam Deck and I get black screen on both :( Perhaps I need to update the firmware on the adapters somehow?
@@kerbalette156 If you are connecting UHC10 with a capture card, it can't work. I am not sure why you do this. I never showed a combination like this in any of my videos. This cable is to use a switch with a dock, but without a capture card. If you are using a capture card, use a dock with a normal HDMI cable. And if you don't want to use a dock, and can charge both devices, then use the cable which I show in a video about a capture card (this one 4k@60 to be future-proof): s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dkw1UcZ or on Amazon: amzn.to/3CdX1ju)
hi i just see i bought by mistake the card that you have plugged in your switch the white one and its not working with quest can you confirm that or i am doing something wrong ?
What could be any other use case aside from gaming, streaming sticks and desktop usage? Could it work for things like playing VR games like the Oculus Rift?
Aliexpress changes price alot , I open your link in private window €12.67, and if I open it in my logged in from Ireland account its now €21.02. €8.35 extra and it still claims to be a sale. China and EU do not get on with the trade war so it is no surprise that they are giving us less off. Now curious what others have been charged for their location.
It changes mostly based on location (tax/customs) and on being old or new customer, because new have bonus for first purchase and old can use their points to lower the price later.
Hello! This video is very helpful. I have one question. Can I connect my xbox/PS (output) with a standard high speed HDMI cable, to the the "Hagibis USB3.0 Video Capture Card", then to my Quest 3? Xbox/PS --> HDMI Cable --> Hagibis Capture Card --> Quest 3
@@Amber_Square there is some latency. I would not play anything competitive that requires snappy response Like D2 or R6. its kinda like playing with "game mode" off on a tv. I hooked it up to my Rog Ally to play metroid prime. It was definitely a great experience, and the latency was hardly noticeable.
@Thomas_Voland No. After some research, it was the handshake issue between USB C and Quest 3. So I added a USB A to C adapter between capture card and Quest 3. Then it started working.
@Thomas_Voland No idea.. USB C is not working for me. So I have used another USB type A to Type C adapter and connected via USB adapter I got with Capture card.
1:52 - you said that you connect the cable upside down and then the quality/bandwith is worse - how come?, does the way you plug in the usb-c cable really matter? I thought this port is fully reversible
You can check my video about using it with Switch, where I show this with device specification on the screen for both positions ua-cam.com/video/I6AWoC1IXzw/v-deo.htmlsi=Oc8zYEozK1ynqPYJ&t=557
Almost all cheaper cards are USB 2.0 even if they advertise as 3.0. No support for YUY2 and low frame rate. And they don't have Power Delivery so there is no real competition to card from this video.
I got the 3 items you recommend for the steam deck off Amazon But it works for 2 min and then quits What am I doing wrong? Same thing with the Retroid Pocket Mini
Would this work by just getting the Quest 3 to cast to my TV with HDMI? Chrome Cast is unreliable and barely works, and I can't Cast to my Lap top either.
need Help with conecting to ipad . Using Hagibis and only getting black screen, think i need apple usb -c to Hdmi * or specific aftermarket hub that works with apple can you reccommend 1 ?
You commented also video with different equipment so I am not sure what exactly are you using right now. Hagibis capture card and HDMI-USB-C cable? Or HDMI capture cable with integrated capture card? Which iPad?
I just got this capture card and I’m trying to use it with my PS5 and it’ll start out at 60hz and after about 20 seconds it disconnects and then reconnects at 50hz. Is anybody else experiencing this? Is the card defective? It does it on my Switch and Apple TV too.
The HDCP was not turned off but it’s still disconnecting after doing so. I’m thinking the capture card is defective. I am using the 60hz orientation of the USB C connector.
Now I see that it does the same to your Switch and that you are referring to the capture card, not cable. Maybe you connected power before connecting it to the Quest? Then disconnecting is normal.
Now when I first plug the capture card in I can select 1920 x 1080 @60fps and after about 10 seconds it disconnects before I even tap start streaming. After that happens I can’t even select the 1920 x 1080 @60fps and only 1920 x 1080 @50fps shows up in the drop down menu. I’ve never used a capture card before so do you think it’s defective or am I doing something wrong?
I know this is a video on the hdmi link but I’m curious about your head strap on your Quest 3. What is the brand and model of the strap. How did you attach the headphones? Do you have a video on it by chance?
@@LarryJenkins-if1ev video about it will be on my channel in September (and about many other head straps too). This one is Kkcobvr Q3 Pro with headphones from Vive Cosmos (the same like in Deluxe audio strap but with clips to mount on any strap). For my recommendations you can check vr.thomasvoland.com
@@Gamer-kn7fi Yep I just tested it. For watching videos and movies the frame rate seems sufficient. However, I think the 4K might be a bit overkill since it's more than the Quest can display in a window at a normal distance.
@@Gamer-kn7fi In Quest, the difference between FullHD and 4k is so small that I am not even sure if it really exists. It's huge in flat games from PC, but rendering games in higher resolution is beneficial for AA etc so it's completely different situation.
@@Thomas_Voland it does exist I tried that with using different video independently from USB capture input, even though it's not full uhd it just looked a bit sharper (but I'm also watching at maxed out screen size), and yeah 1080p probably is good enough for most people but I'm still interested in getting it to 4k as I had to use a hdcp bypass anyway and that way could even use the fire tv with a uhd capture card.
I got confused with all this cables. I have watched multiple times but still dont understand. If i have ipad pro M1, i also have quest 3 and sometimes wanting to work privately. Both will connect with my mac Mini M4 Pro. What cables do i need?
Cables from this video. So s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DlGYh7N + s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DlK6KGR and I highly recommend extension: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Ddyc7Kr
Update: I am not sure what do you mean about connecting Mac Mini. You can just connect wireless to the Mac. This setup is for iPad and other devices which can't be normally connected.
@ yup, the sidecar functions but it’s not stable at all if I go to Starbucks with their connection. So was thinking to connect with cable for my Mac Mini M4 Pro with iPad Pro M1 / quest 3 as display but still get to charge the iPad/quest at the same time.
So heads up, the meta hdmi link just got a software update in the last 5 or so days adding a whole bunch of new resolution options all the way up to apparently 4k 30fps. but that aside i don't recommend the hagibis you recommend. its limited to 1980x1020 60fps for starters. and i'm having issues with darkness with it. as in games designed in dark environments like return to moira and dead space are so dark you cant see anything without maxing out the games brightness. with the elgato hd60 x im running 3840x2160 30fps and brightness is perfectly fine :)
@@MrBokkyboy I was talking about 12v in different video, and it was about connecting to Quest, not to Switch. To Switch you can use just the power supply which was in the package with it. If I remember correctly Switch uses 15V.
@@MrBokkyboy Yes you can. If you use the cable which I show in the video, you can connect power directly into it, without having dock. With normal HDMI cable it's not possible and you need also dock. In both cases, Switch needs power, because this is how Switch works - it needs power for TV mode.
That is why you need to purchase the model that I have shown. In the video, I mentioned that there are a few models available, also without PD, so you should buy the one which I linked.
Everything depends on the headstrap and facial interface. However, the best idea is to not wear them at all and instead use prescription lenses installed in the headset. I will have a review of many brands (magnetic and normal) on my channel.

What is the best set up to connect my fire stick TV to my Meta Quest?
The best is the capture card shown in the video, because all HDCP-protected content will work.
so this is just for mirroring from another device like a tv?
@@likes2fly No, this is instead of TV
Yes, like a TV... No mirroring, it takes the console/streaming device/etc.'s output directly through HDMI.
can the virtual screen size be adjusted?
Yes
Thanks for the video! I just ordered mine today. Could you share the brand of the head strap that you are using? I think it is more comfortable than the Bobo Vr with an open-face interface.
On this video I use Kkcobvr Q3 Pro.
Can you run a normal hdmi cable from back of tv to the video capture card? Thanks for the video and links 👍🏻
@@BigWillieFPV Yes
Hello, I have a question:
I have a PC with a VGA output. There are VGA/HDMI adapters.
Would this work with my Meta Quest 3S headset connected to the video capture card + HDMI cable + HDMI/VGA adapter and finally my PC.
Thank you for answering me.
For this you need converter VGA to HDMI, because VGA is analog, not digital. You can use it.
There is a big lantency? If there is a big one I think a capture card with passtrough mode would better perform.
@@_makpowa_ i can’t measure it, but I didn’t notice any lag. Why do you think that other card would be better? Which exactly model do you have in mind?
Can I connect the meta quest 3 via USB C cable and video capture to the PC to see the image in obs?
No
Just arrived from your link. I am very impressed. I've waited for a long time to use my deck in my quest.
One question. Is 1080p the max resolution of this set up using quest 3 and the capture card? Thank you for the video
I might just stick with my Nreal Airs for flat games. If I can get PCVR games on Steam to work through Geforce Now, then I will be rocking that way.
So is 1080p max resolution? I set it to 2k I think in SD settings but nothing happened, display still read as 1080p.
Yes 1080p is maximum resolution. 2K is almost the same resolution (2048x1080), so there is no difference really. However I known some people use "2K* wrong, thinking that's 2560x1440 px. This you can't get.
What's the size of the screen you can have via HDMI link for playstation or Nintendo games?
Can I have the same cinema experience like with UA-cam app on the Quest or screen is smaller for external input?
It's the same like for every other app. I would compare it to about 140-150" from 2-2.5m
@@Thomas_VolandAwesome! Thank you for answer and explanation how to connect the things- subscribed!
Can i use that for an elgato's camlink output? i just wanted to get the source image from Meta Quest 3 into a PC which is going to get the output to an OBS Transmission... Please help me with that question :)

It seems that the Amazon DE link is not a capture card, maybe you can check again?
You are right. For a long time this card is out of stock in DE.

Is this the bobovr or the kkcobvr?
@@MrPickpoke on this video I had Kkcobvr Q3 Pro.
Thanks Thomas
TV, challenge do you think you can figure out a wireless tx method?
@@WhiterRice probably I will test wireless options, but for what I known there will be a lag.
Can this be displayed in a cinema mode in Quest or is it just a 2D floating window??
It's a window with a full-screen option, so you can dim the environment or switch between flat or curved, etc.
Bought both these but just a black screen. Do both need to be powered for it to work?
No, only Switch needs power to work, Quest can use just the battery.
@@Thomas_Volandhmm perhaps mine is defective then. I bought USB-A/USB-C PD 100W 4K 1080P USB 3.0 Hagibis Capture Card Model UHC07P along with model UHC10. Tried power into both adapters and still get a black screen with Quest HDMI Link. I do get the YUY2 1280 60Hz notification in the bottom right. I tried it with a Switch (Non OLED) and a Steam Deck and I get black screen on both :( Perhaps I need to update the firmware on the adapters somehow?
@@Thomas_VolandI tried UHC07P adapter with a laptop and cable and it work in the quest. Guess the problem is with the white adapter
@@kerbalette156 If you are connecting UHC10 with a capture card, it can't work. I am not sure why you do this. I never showed a combination like this in any of my videos. This cable is to use a switch with a dock, but without a capture card.
If you are using a capture card, use a dock with a normal HDMI cable.
And if you don't want to use a dock, and can charge both devices, then use the cable which I show in a video about a capture card (this one 4k@60 to be future-proof): s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dkw1UcZ or on Amazon: amzn.to/3CdX1ju)
How is the latency with the capture card? I’m rn looking everywhere for a capture card with very low to no latency with PD port also
Lets hope they do a version with HDCP bypass so it can be used with PS3.
As far as I known it works with PS3 and for sure it works with every other HDCP content.
@@Thomas_Voland hopefully other PS3 users will chime in and confirm this works.

hi i just see i bought by mistake the card that you have plugged in your switch the white one and its not working with quest can you confirm that or i am doing something wrong ?

i have a capture card but it dosnt work on HDMI LINK, so i come to buy this Hagibis card from aliexpress, i wish it work for me
This may be a stupid question.. but any idea if it'll work on the quest 3s?
Of course it will work. On Quest 2 is also working.
What could be any other use case aside from gaming, streaming sticks and desktop usage?
Could it work for things like playing VR games like the Oculus Rift?
No, this is to replace TV.
@@Thomas_Voland alright, thanks a lot for clarifying!
Aliexpress changes price alot , I open your link in private window €12.67, and if I open it in my logged in from Ireland account its now €21.02. €8.35 extra and it still claims to be a sale. China and EU do not get on with the trade war so it is no surprise that they are giving us less off.
Now curious what others have been charged for their location.
It changes mostly based on location (tax/customs) and on being old or new customer, because new have bonus for first purchase and old can use their points to lower the price later.
Just got these, works amazingly thank you, is it possible to do this without charging the switch or does it need power to show up on the quest?
@@WARRE7V Switch never works on separate screen without power. No matter if it’s Quest or not.

Hello!
This video is very helpful. I have one question.
Can I connect my xbox/PS (output) with a standard high speed HDMI cable, to the the "Hagibis USB3.0 Video Capture Card", then to my Quest 3?
Xbox/PS --> HDMI Cable --> Hagibis Capture Card --> Quest 3
Yes, of course you can.
And if you have already tried it - please share your impressions!
@@Amber_Square Yea it worked really well
@@chxxrlyhorse Did you have any latency with PS? Is it possible to play an online shooter with such a setup?
@@Amber_Square there is some latency. I would not play anything competitive that requires snappy response Like D2 or R6. its kinda like playing with "game mode" off on a tv.
I hooked it up to my Rog Ally to play metroid prime. It was definitely a great experience, and the latency was hardly noticeable.
Is there a difference in latency when connected to pc in comparison to Quest link cable?
Both connections are for completely different purposes, so I don't think there is any point in comparing them.
I need help. I have ordered the same connector. But the connection is dropping every 2 seconds. Unable make it stable. Any idea how to fix it ?
@@ygsrinivas it looks like you connected power, before connecting it to the Quest🤔
@Thomas_Voland No. After some research, it was the handshake issue between USB C and Quest 3. So I added a USB A to C adapter between capture card and Quest 3. Then it started working.
@@ygsrinivas What do you mean handshake between USB C? Handshake for Power Delivery and now you are using slower 5V charging instead of PD?
@Thomas_Voland No idea.. USB C is not working for me. So I have used another USB type A to Type C adapter and connected via USB adapter I got with Capture card.
1:52 - you said that you connect the cable upside down and then the quality/bandwith is worse - how come?, does the way you plug in the usb-c cable really matter? I thought this port is fully reversible
You can check my video about using it with Switch, where I show this with device specification on the screen for both positions ua-cam.com/video/I6AWoC1IXzw/v-deo.htmlsi=Oc8zYEozK1ynqPYJ&t=557
Good test, do you mind showing the performance of all the cheaper models you tested in Quest HDMI link too?
Almost all cheaper cards are USB 2.0 even if they advertise as 3.0. No support for YUY2 and low frame rate. And they don't have Power Delivery so there is no real competition to card from this video.
@@Thomas_Voland I know, but we would still like to see the performance in a comparison video
Good point. I sent back the worst cards but I still have the most popular models so maybe I will do comparison.
Can this be used with a wireless HDMI tv adapter?
@@en2oh yes, but quality wireless won’t be the same like using a cable.
What are the over ear solution you are using? Thanks
It's from HTC Vive Cosmos (the same like in Deluxe Audio Strap). I will make a video about it soon.
What would you suggest to bypass HDCP? Regardless if what capture card I use, can not get the apple devices over to quest. Blocked by HDCP
Everything what I tested with HDCP, worked on this setup. iPhone 15 Pro too.
I got the 3 items you recommend for the steam deck off Amazon
But it works for 2 min and then quits
What am I doing wrong?
Same thing with the Retroid Pocket Mini
What quits? Quest HDMI Link app is crashing on your Quest? What is the 3rd item?
Would this work by just getting the Quest 3 to cast to my TV with HDMI? Chrome Cast is unreliable and barely works, and I can't Cast to my Lap top either.
No
Does HDMI link replace Meta link for PC gaming? And is it a much better link, (faster)?
This has nothing to do with PCVR - this is to use Quest as 2D screen for playing on consoles etc.

It can't
I just got this capture card and I’m trying to use it with my PS5 and it’ll start out at 60hz and after about 20 seconds it disconnects and then reconnects at 50hz. Is anybody else experiencing this? Is the card defective? It does it on my Switch and Apple TV too.
Did you reversed the connector? Is you console set to HDCP off?
The HDCP was not turned off but it’s still disconnecting after doing so. I’m thinking the capture card is defective. I am using the 60hz orientation of the USB C connector.
@@millah2312345 you just need to set HDCP to off
Now I see that it does the same to your Switch and that you are referring to the capture card, not cable. Maybe you connected power before connecting it to the Quest? Then disconnecting is normal.
Now when I first plug the capture card in I can select 1920 x 1080 @60fps and after about 10 seconds it disconnects before I even tap start streaming. After that happens I can’t even select the 1920 x 1080 @60fps and only 1920 x 1080 @50fps shows up in the drop down menu. I’ve never used a capture card before so do you think it’s defective or am I doing something wrong?
I know this is a video on the hdmi link but I’m curious about your head strap on your Quest 3. What is the brand and model of the strap. How did you attach the headphones? Do you have a video on it by chance?

So for pc flat gaming, its enough just any HDMI to Usb-C adapter?
No. It’s like I said on the video - capture card is needed.
Very cool feature. With the Elgato Cam Link, I can even use 4K resolution (but only at 30fps).
really? 30fps should be fine for a watching movies and series or does it look very stuttery?
@@Gamer-kn7fi Yep I just tested it. For watching videos and movies the frame rate seems sufficient. However, I think the 4K might be a bit overkill since it's more than the Quest can display in a window at a normal distance.
@@Heico321 yeah I know that it's overkill but might still be a bit more then 1080p
@@Gamer-kn7fi In Quest, the difference between FullHD and 4k is so small that I am not even sure if it really exists. It's huge in flat games from PC, but rendering games in higher resolution is beneficial for AA etc so it's completely different situation.
@@Thomas_Voland it does exist I tried that with using different video independently from USB capture input, even though it's not full uhd it just looked a bit sharper (but I'm also watching at maxed out screen size), and yeah 1080p probably is good enough for most people but I'm still interested in getting it to 4k as I had to use a hdcp bypass anyway and that way could even use the fire tv with a uhd capture card.
I got confused with all this cables. I have watched multiple times but still dont understand.
If i have ipad pro M1, i also have quest 3 and sometimes wanting to work privately. Both will connect with my mac Mini M4 Pro.

@ yup, the sidecar functions but it’s not stable at all if I go to Starbucks with their connection. So was thinking to connect with cable for my Mac Mini M4 Pro with iPad Pro M1 / quest 3 as display but still get to charge the iPad/quest at the same time.

Buy magnetic lenses with ur correction for ur vr glass. Easy to put in and out. Much more comfortable then with glasses.
Everything depends on the headstrap and facial interface. However, the best idea is to not wear them at all and instead use prescription lenses installed in the headset. I will have a review of many brands (magnetic and normal) on my channel.
