    Are you playing a video file with a corresponding telemetry file?

    You have to use the Video Ride Player to actually "ride" the film buddy.

    you don't need to be using the telemetry file reformatter.
    Maybe that is messing it up?

    I'm having the same issue ...
    Same configuration, using the player, and a video with telemetry.

    I see there's a connection to the manager, but no telemetry is being sent. Latest plugin, latest SimTools, latest player.

    What is the name of the video file?
    And what is the name of the telemetry file?

    The names should match like this.
    Video file name = "Snow Coaster.mpg"
    Then telemetry file should be "Snow Coaster.cfg"

    Do you have it like that?

    We would want a player that plays files, without using anything that only works of only a single vr headset. It should work for all of them outa the box.
    That's why I was suggesting vlc player.
    I believe it should work for all 360 videos, but we will see.
    Maybe you could try playing a 360 video with vlc and see how it works?
    Take care,

    The experimental VLC 3 can play 360 images and video on a PC, but as far as I know not in VR, that functionality is yet to land.

    But here are a couple of VR capable 360 degree players:

    KM Player: http://www.kmplayer.com/

    I suppose all we need from the "other players" is weather or not a vid is playing, and the current play time in ms.
    We could probably get what we need with memory hooks, but it would stink to update it with every release of the other players.

    What we need is a player that can be embedded in a .net app like vlc can.
    When I have some more time I'll look around for one.

    VLC will get VR support @yobuddy, it is just a waiting game. Even the current PC 360 player is an experimental build.

    So perhaps an alternate existing memory hooked VR capable player is a viable short term stop gap, with the view to fully integrate and use VLC down the track.

    I know that is a pain, but it seems it is a fair wait for VLC VR at the moment.

    i think for start the vr in htc vive or others headset
    you need :
    1- create an applications steam for hook the headset Vr and intégration 360° vidéo with télémetry
    2- create a plug in for this applications steam for start the simulator
    3 - ENJOYING

    My english is so dégueulasse ( baddd) lol

    thank for your quick feedback and long life to simtools is really the best software
