• Can I download steam vr games to quest 3, or does or it have to be streamed from computer?

  Steam link is designed to work with the Steam app on your computer/pc. It's a great way to wirelessly run games that you've bought through steam. There's some free games that're available, Pop One, Blaston, others that you can run this way to see if you like it, before investing in new paid games. You can also use Sidequest https://sidequestvr.com/ to download games to your headset that will run natively. ... Source: 7 months ago

• It's Pretty Insane The Quest 2 Can Pull Of Graphics Like This (Hubris). Imagine What We'll See On Quest 3

  You can get kinda better looking standalone visuals if you finagle with Sidequest a bit. But that's the only way to have better visuals standalone that I know of. Source: almost 1 year ago

• Bigger screen, without a bigger screen!

  Go here, https://sidequestvr.com/, download sidequest (pick the advanced installer) and follow the instructions to set it up and get it working on your quest. Then you just download the steam link apk from here https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/valve-corporation/steam-link-beta/ and use the sideloading feature in sidequest to install it on the quest.

• What pages can I download games from if I’m thinking of using the Oculus without a pc?

  I’m thinking of buying a Quest 2 and I don’t have in mind ever using it with a PC so I was wondering if I use it without the PC can I download games from other pages or only the games from the Oculus Store, for example in another post I saw someone mention https://sidequestvr.com would I need a PC to download games from that website? If not then what does the PC adds to the Quest? Source: about 1 year ago

• Zuckerberg unveils Meta’s newest VR headset days before Apple reveals its own

  Tell that to the hundreds of developers using sideloading to distribute thousands of successful apps on Quest: https://sidequestvr.com/ Or to the thousands of Mac developers who sideload their app without the App Store. Or to the tens of thousands of Windows developers who distribute apps through freestanding MSI and EXE files... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Program for sorting DOWNLOADED movies/games?

  I used to use Plex until I found Emby. I find Emby easier to use and it does the same thing. Just putting this here as a fourth option for OP. :). Source: 7 months ago

• Ask HN: What is your streaming setup like?

  I use https://emby.media along with private trackers and Usenet. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Just checking: Plex is still the best option right?

  You can find it here! I have both installed, but I generally keep EMBY turned off until I want to play around with it. You can have both running at once and both accessing the same folders. You can check it out for free. Source: 12 months ago

• Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirates life for me!! Recent streaming services, prices and shows getting butchered, finally decided its time. Here's how a basic self-hosted 'Netflix' would look like. Fully automated once its setup. Using only a makeshift homelab server from second hand parts.
