VR question - non VR setup

[Hanyululu]

I have a VR related question. And this might be really stupid so I apologize in advance. I am not set up for watching VR movies.
But shen I see some VR titles, the screenshots look....normal. Like regular movies. I assume they will look extra great in 'VR mode'.
Other VR movie screenshots look odd in non VR mode. Like fish eye lens looking.
My question: can I get a VR title and watch it regularly in non VR mode?
If you look at these screenshots, I Think you will see what I am asking.
Again, this is probably a dumb question. Sorry!

As you can see from the screenshot if you look closely enough, there's 2 different pictures in every frames(1 for each eye), same thing as 3d movies. You can crop one out and just watch from 1 perspective without vr, but it might not look the best and you might have to do some extra tweeking to the picture for it to look good.

I haven't tried it myself so I can't go into much more details than that since I only have your screenshot to go on but unless it's a video format a normal player can't read, there should be no technical issues playing it.

Thanks for the reply. I might give it a try this weekend. That second example I listed above….just one picture. And the picture looks like any other screenshot. So I wasn’t sure if it was a different type of VR, or different kind of screenshot, or what. I could probably watch that second one. The first one (with the two pictures) probably looks pretty bad without VR gear. We’ll see. Thanks again!

The second one isn't a screenshot, it's a cover/promo pic so they're going to use pictures people can look at normally, the actual video isn't going to look like that.

I don't know how to fix the fisheye effect which seem to be a VR thing but to separate the pictures and correct the size of it, you can use the same technique as 3d videos to crop and resize. Here's a tutorial on how to do it on VLC but you can apply that knowledge on most players: https://www.vlchelp.com/how-to-convert-hsbs-3d-to-2d-movie-vlc/

I'm curious so I'm going to download one of these and see if it can be played right.

Took me an hour but I finally found a way to do it and as a bonus it's way cooler than I expected it would be.
You can use the MPV player and a plugin to render the VR scene in 2D and you can even move your mouse cursor to look around.

Here's the page explaining how to install and use: https://github.com/dfaker/VR-reversal

Just make sure to read how the controls work because the video will start at a very low resolution and you have to increase it by pressing y

Here's the same shot with the plugin on(2 different views) and off:

Nice! Your sample looks good. That's good news. Thanks for experimenting. I tried some other ways earlier....my results look like 1970s snuff films from Tijuana. Yikes. I'll try your way. There have been loads of VR titles (with stars I like) that I always ignored. But maybe now, I can try some. Even without the controls the screen looks good with your example. I wasn't expecting that at all. That's a nice bonus! Thanks again for the links. (Now if I can get my goddamn gf out of the goddamn house for 5 minutes,I can try this myself!)

Friends, seriously... for 299 dollars you can buy Oculus Quest 2. They are standalone glasses, you don't need anything else... You will see the girls in 3D, real size... Talking and doing things to YOU. Looking directly into your eyes... This is the next level of porn... Give it a try...

How I miss Bibian in VR...

 

[SamKook]

I get motion sick very easily so VR isn't ideal for me. Also, I'd never buy a facebook product.

Yeah, I don't suppose lesbian VR is very popular, sadly. Haven't checked how many they made, just saw that one in the recent posts looking for one so I had to get that one. It is in my thread after all

 

[Walle12]

Well, in porn VR the camera is static, so there is very little motion sickness.

And yes I'd never buy a facebook product, too... So I have Samsung Odyssey Plus... Facebook is a cancer.

eah, I don't suppose lesbian VR is very popular, sadly. Haven't checked how many they made, just saw that one in the recent posts looking for one so I had to get that one. It is in my thread after all

In the last two years, around 2.000 JAV VR movies, and only one, ONE, is full lesbian.
Bibian made some VRs in 2018 and 2019, but in 2020 and 2021, nothing...

Walle12 - you are a good salesman for things VR! I know it’s the future. It probably is very cool. Thank you for teaching more about this.
I’m trying SamKook’s method of ‘converting’ VR titles to be watchable on standard 2D players (2D…..is that correct?!)
just curious - is this the Samsung Odyssey + you have? Pretty pricey! It’s even pricier in Japan, where I am. One day…..
You should try these special VR shows along with the Odyssey the next time you watch a VR jav title!
and what is the deal with one lesbian title…? I guess the thinking is it wouldn’t appeal to most men. I’m not sure.
Thanks to both of you for the insights. VR or no VR….it’s jav time!

I ignored virtual reality for 3 years because I thought it was just screens in my eyes.

But when I tried it, my head exploded.... What VR brings is immersion. You see everything in 3D and, most importantly, life-size.

A girl doesn't measure the centimeters that the screen of your mobile or TV has, she has a real size and when you have her close, your brain (and your penis... ) believes that she is there, 10 centimeters away from you.

The porn changes completely because you no longer see an ugly guy doing things, now you are the one doing it, you are INSIDE the scene. The girls talk to you, kiss you and do things to you.

It's a completely new and different experience, and far superior to passively watching porn on a flat and tiny screen.

I've only been watching VR porn for the last 2 years, I don't need flat porn anymore.

Yes it is. Unfortunately Samsung no longer sells them, which is why they have gone up in price. They cost me $350 new.

That's right, VR Porn it's the best experience, dizziness occurs only at the beginning, over time you get used to it and it no longer makes you dizzy.
