3D SBS MKV Support for VR?

#1 Post by albert90 » Mon Jan 31, 2022 2:42 pm

Hi!

I've been interested in making a foray into watching movies in VR lately, so I did some digging and came to the conclusion that a great format for 3D movies in VR is MKV SBS.

Naturally, that made me think of MakeMKV, but I realized that ripping a Blu-ray to MKV SBS isn't supported just yet (the MKV MVC format is supported, but that's harder to playback on VR headsets from what I've seen).

I wanted to ask if there are any plans for MKV SBS support any time in the future? Or if there might be another way to work around this.

Also, side note, it'd be great if anyone who has experience with the Valve Index and/or Oculus Rift S could let me know if beefier specs of the Index are worth shelling out for, or if I'd be better off sticking with The Rift S. So far, I've been making do with this comparison that I found but I'd love to hear from an actual user if possible.

TIA!
