Havent talked about this,
but setting a #MetaQuest2 as #HDMI record screen is quite nice !

1) Enable dev mode (oh god metaaa)
2) Use Sidequest on pc (another account ?!)
3) Sideload USBCamera and FXFileExplorer
???
4) Play #NintendoSwitch

Metas own #HDMILink app has like 8 fps lol.
Those scoundrels :aqua_aaa:

We'll see about eyestrain, but I could record all gaming videos like this now (minus the jitter and invr . this is just for illustration)

PS:
If you have the *slightest* interest in a #VR #Headset as #TV replacement:

Do it sooner than later.

This mq2 here is now configured and set up.
It works offline.
I had to go through
Many.. Maaaaany setup screens, logins etc.
If #Facebook / #Meta disables their servers this thing will be #technotrash ...
Keep that in mind
(This is my #first and #last #meta device.
So #intrusive its #dystopian !) #metaquest

Here's some information about what could go wrong with #Quest #HDMILink due to a bug with permissions in the operating system. Additionally, I show that it also works on iPhone with streaming services such as Apple TV: youtu.be/yf0gHHNivpo
