VR Video Player for Local VR Files (itch.io)

Came across this great option, coming to steam soon but currently available on itch.io. works well to play immersive VR videos on the steam frame.

It looks like streaming VR content from websites is not something that can easily be done current state on the frame. If you have VR videos loaded on a local hard drive, this app works great to view them via the 6ghz dongle.

Hope this helps someone because I was not having success with deovr or other players on steam.

Edit: Realizing this might not be gaming related but steam frame related. If there's a better community for this sort of content would you please let me know?

Kinda mad Valve shipped the frame without a WebXR capable browser.

Not much they could do since Firefox doesn't support it either. They've been working with the dev of the WebXR Chromium fork at least, but obviously, that wasn't ready for launch.
