No support for "Center" eye view in latest SteamVR/OpenVR version. #7

There is no support for the "Center" eye view which was added in the latest SteamVR/OpenVR version, which seems like a no-brainer for this since it was basically made for capturing the player's view.

I would add support for it myself if I understood C++/even building projects with visual studio enough to do it...

I looked at this when it first was on the beta. It seems to be just cropping one of the eyes automatically depending on the size of the mirror window. Essentially it's doing the same thing as the plugin but without the need to manually crop it yourself. There's no way to add support for that since it's not part of the API as far as I know, it's just doing some cropping on the mirror application itself. If you'd like to capture the center view, you can do a regular window capture with OBS and choose the headset mirror window. From what I can tell though, the center view has a narrower field of view, so the plugin would actually capture a bit more if you use it.

Ah, huh. Interesting, I thought it was a legit new thing that combined pixels from left and right eyes and made them look like a proper 16:9 thing...

Thanks for clarifying, will close.
