VR Media Player

This is a simple video player / image viewer for virtual reality bult with Godot.

When no VR device is detected, it still works in "desktop-mode"

Supports most Video-Formats, and images as png, bmp, tga, webp, jpg, or mpo. Gifs are not supported.

VR modes are flat screen, 180°, and 360° (equirectangular or equi-angular cubemap). 3D Videos/Images are supported in side-by-side format bzw top&bottom for 360° videos. 3D mpo images work too.

Running from source:

• The project uses Godot 4.3. Make sure to get a compatble version. You can download a standalone binary on the Godot Website

• Next, get the EIRTeam.FFmpeg plugin, and unzip it into the project folder.

• To be able to watch videos with uncommon codecs, download a file with the pattern ffmpeg-n6...-shared from FFmpeg builds and copy all .dll or .so files into the addons/ffmpeg/linux64/ or addons/ffmpeg/win64/ folder. Overwrite existing files. Note that this doesn't seem to work with v1.1 of the plugin. v1.0.4 should work.

• To run the application, start Godot, import the project and click run.

To reate a standalone executable, follow this Exporting projects Tutorial.

Binary distribution coming soon...
