Advanced

Advanced page can be used to switch to a Custom profile and change FOV values and other advanced settings.

• Profile
  • Can be used to switch to a custom profile.
  • If Somnium VR1 profile is selected, the default profile values will be used, and you won’t be able to change the additional options on this page.
• Field of View
  • Vertical Angle
    • Can be used to change the vertical field of view.
  • Horizontal Inner Angle
    • Can be used to change the horizontal field of view on the inner part (between the center and nose).
    • This value controls how much overlap there will be between images for left and right eye, so it doesn’t count to the total horizontal FOV value.
  • Horizontal Peripheral Angle
    • Can be used to change the horizontal field of view on the peripheral part (between the center and outer edge).
    • This value multiplied by 2 corresponds to the commonly used total horizontal FOV (so for example if Horizontal Peripheral is set to 62°, the total horizontal FOV is 124°).
  • Reset to Default Values
    • Allows resetting the Field of View options to their default values.
• Correction
  • Eye Relief Offset
    • Can be used to set the distance offset between the lens and the eye (for most users the 0mm value will work the best).
  • Reset to Default Values
    • Allows resetting the Eye Relief Offset options to the default value.
  • Canted Rendering
    • Can be used to switch between canted (non-parallel) rendering and standard parallel rendering.
    • Make sure to restart the end VR application after changing this option.
    • Canted rendering will only work correctly in applications that support non-parallel cameras.
  • Force HDCP
    • Use this option if you see any issues with HDCP initialization, which would most often manifest by the headset displays randomly turning off even if the headset is in use.
