Hello !

I recently got a Quest 3 and tried VPX VR. It works well, but since i have a lower mid range computer it's hard to achieve 120 fps, even more with VR rooms.
I heard that the 10.8.1 beta has some serious optimizations, and after trying it i can confirm. I can have 120fps with a good quality, however the DMD does not work.
Basically, if the preview window is full screen, i get a keyed mutex error saying the capture failed. After many many adventures, i got the preview screen to appear windowed.
No error message that way, but also no DMD in game so it feels like the capture isn't even attempted.

I tried displaying the preview full screen on my 2nd monitor so it doesn't overlap with the DMD window, but i get the same keyed mutex error.
If i launch fullscreen and disable external DMD capture, i no longer get the error (but obviously no DMD). This proves that there is an issue with the DMD capture.
So basically now i'm running out of ideas. I don't really know how i could force the capture to happen even if the preview is windowed.

 

I know this is a beta version so it's to be expected it's not the most stable. However apparently others have been able to get their DMD working on 10.8.1. So i still have some hope i could get it working for me aswell.
When using the 10.8.0 version, the preview window launches windowed by default, and i have no issue with the DMD whatsoever. So it should not be a problem with vpinmame.

Any kind of pointer as to what to look for would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help !
