Monoscopic mode not working (backend daydream) #1162

Open guiyens opened 7 years ago

guiyens commented 7 years ago

I set monoFullScreen and monoMode to true on gvr.xml but it doesn't work.

<mono-mode-parms monoFullScreen="true" monoMode="true" />

Unfortunately we do not support that mode with the Daydream backend yet.

@liaxim is there ETA for monoscopic mode for daydream/cardboard backend?

liaxim commented 7 years ago

How important is this feature to you? We have not planned working on this but depending on the priority we could expedite it. It would take few days.

There will be another backend, just for monoscopic, and you will need to add it to your apk in addition to the daydream backend.

felislynx-silae commented 7 years ago

To be honest it would be nice to have ability to switch between monoscopic and VR mode (like in streetview) Or have ability to launch just in monoscopic mode. But if you have planned another backed thats fine, i can wait for that :). I've asked just because i've been doing research in my project that was about monoscopic view in framework.

Switching at runtime will be a bit more complex than selecting a backend launch time.

felislynx-silae commented 7 years ago

My perfect flow would be to have ability (for DD/Cardboard flavor) to launch app in normal mode, then choose "view" to watch in portrait mode, landscape and in VR (in Cardboard or Daydream mode). I know it's complex and hard flow. I saw it in Google Spotlight that's why i've been asking

In the next release we will have a proper monoscopic backend. The change has been merged to master today. You will just need to add the monoscopic backend module to your app. No need to include oculus and/or daydream anymore.
