VR Video player for steam frame (0x5311f56b.itch.io)

Available in itch.io. Works well to stream locally stored video files. Deovr wasn't working for me.

I'm aware that they're working to allow for streaming web VR content, but this is fine for me in the meantime.

I only wish I had more storage for VR content.

Hope this helps someone because I couldn't get any VR video working consistently before I came across this.

This one is closed source, for the record. Although most of the other native players seem to be heavily vibe-coded, so this may be the lesser evil for now.

EDIT: I'll add that most of the existing video players don't work fully because both Proton (Windows compatibility layer) and Lepton (Android compatibility layer) lack full support for video hardware acceleration. So high resolution and high refresh rate content is out of the question. These new native players resolve this, but are mostly new so lack the polish of the Quest and Windows players (to a lesser extent).
