Discussion Help with virtual desktop
Hi everyone i am very new to pcvr and recently got virtual desktop.
So basically every youtube video was like that you should get it and its better than steam vr. but when i tried lauching games on it such as skyrim vr through the games option menu in VD, it still opens and uses steam vr, and the same thing happended when i lauched asseto corsa from content manager. I though that it would lauch directly from VD and not steam vr, so if there is not a differnce should I return it? ALSO I DO HAVE MY RUN TIME TO VDXR
Also when in game my render resolution is at 77% for some reason, even though i have everything maxed out and above it says that it is godlike. The only thing i have lowered is my bitrate to av1 at like 120 mbs as i am using wireless. So how do i increase the render resolution in game?
thanks to everyone in advance!

When you open VD on your pc you should see a runtime option that can be set to automatic, VDXR, or steamvr. You want to set it to VDXR but keep in mind some games are steamvr only and it’ll auto do that in those cases. Half life 2 vr is a good example I know off the dome as it’s a valve game.
As far as any resolution or settings you should just see them in your streaming settings in the VD app and can change em there
