QuestCast

EASY WIRELESS STREAMING FROM OCULUS QUEST TO TWITCH, YOUTUBE, OBS, ETC.:

✔ Uses standard Oculus Quest casting facilities

✔ Does not require any additional software or hardware on Oculus Quest

✔ Does not impact performance of Oculus Quest any more than casting to a TV

✔ Can deliver full casting quality to streaming provider (network speed permitting)

✔ Supports most RTMP based streaming services: YouTube, Twitch, …

✔ Supports casting to streaming software like OBS Studio, … via RTMP server*

✔ Can stream to multiple targets simultaneously (network speed permitting)

✔ Works well on Android-x86 in VirtualBox (bridge network, allow promiscuous)

EASY SETUP:

► Make sure your Android device and your Oculus Quest are on the same WiFi

► Install and open QuestCast app on your Android device (not on Oculus Quest!)

► Add any streaming targets (YouTube, Twitch, custom RTMP target or server, …)

► Click "Start" to turn on casting service and desired outbound stream(s)

► On your Oculus Quest, open the casting menu and cast to "QuestCast"

► Done… Enjoy! ;)

A NOTE ON PERFORMANCE:

► It is highly recommended to use QuestCast over a 5GHz WiFi network:

► A typical Oculus Quest video stream creates about 2.5 to 5 Mbps of bandwidth

► This data needs to reliably (!) traverse your WiFi network at least 3 times for a single streaming target:

 ● Oculus Quest to WiFi router

 ● Router to QuestCast

 ● QuestCast to router (for internet)

► Every additional streaming target adds another WiFi trip from QuestCast to the router

► While 15+ Mbps may not sound like much these days, it can still push 2.4GHz WiFi to its limits, especially in congested areas

► To make things worse, the stream from the Quest to the QuestCast app does not provide a way to recover lost packets (uses UDP)

► Such packet loss will therefore lead to unavoidable visual and/or audio disturbances in the stream!
