Yes, it was simply a download from Vimeo, then using the Quest app on the iPhone to transfer it to the Q3 headset, then watching it from the “spatials” folder on the headset (after it had been automatically been placed into that folder). Very straightforward.

Thanks — that’s great to know! Did you get to the Museum video just through the Vimeo website, and it just worked in 3D on the Quest? Good news if so.

I like the look of the OWL stereo viewer, and yes, there are several portable devices like that out there but none as retro. 🙂

Spatialify can play any Spatial video in cross-eyed or parallel format so it should be possible to view your own videos without converting them first.

I just tried your Museum video on the Quest 3 and it worked nicely, which opens the “audience” for Spatial/3D videos (and stills) to a much larger number, since the Quest3 (and 3s and 2 cost below $450).

For an even larger audience, the “OWL” analog stereoscopic viewers from the London Stereoscopic Company (see https://shop.londonstereo.com/lsc-owl-viewer.html) allows a person to watch captured iPhone spatial videos (which have been converted to side-by-side in Spatialify or another app) with an old-fashioned stereo viewer. Certainly not as immersive and satisfying as with an AVP or Quest, but more accessable at $5-25 :-).

Thanks! I don’t have a Quest of my own so I can’t tell for sure, but Meta says it’s possible. https://www.meta.com/en-gb/help/quest/articles/in-vr-experiences/oculus-apps/spatial-video/?srsltid=AfmBOorzGCML1LIIKSlGFBBByTobkdN1Tyj4ks_kZn1niaw6IjTA48gF

I haven’t locked down the Vimeo videos, so if you want to download them and give it a go, please let me know if it works for you.

For the time being, all I have is a Quest 3, and I’m ignorant on a lot of this, though I have ambitions. Can I watch these clips on it?
