OVRdrop is a Utility Application for SteamVR that can mirror a Desktop Window, an entire Monitor, or a WebCam into a Cross Game SteamVR Overlay.
OVRdrop is a Utility Application for SteamVR that can mirror a Desktop Window, an entire Monitor, or a WebCam into a Cross Game SteamVR Overlay. OVRdrop works on SteamVR and should be fully compatible with any SteamVR headset, though you will need tracked controllers for many of the features. It is known to work for the HTC Vive as well as the Oculus Rift, though
. The only major downside is that Cross Game Overlays will always draw on top of game geometry because Depth information is not fed to the Compositor by SteamVR games.
If you have any issues getting started, be sure to check the FAQ on our GitHub which I’ll try to keep updated with the most common questions. If you find any bugs, please post them to our issue tracker on our GitHub. I’m at the ready to fix any bugs that are found!
Support for Windows 7 is planned for the future.
OVRdrop should work perfectly with any SteamVR compatible headset
. However some games will override the SteamVR SDK when using an Oculus Rift or an OSVR HMD, and prevent SteamVR from drawing to the headset.
Please check our Compatibility guide on our GitHub for more information. Please report Oculus Rift/OSVR success or failure on our GitHub Issue Tracker.
However, some games could possibly break controller interaction. Please check our Compatibility guide on our GitHub for more information.
