Thank you for the review, and I'm sorry, but the backend of this add-on doesn't support it. This page shows supported headsets (https://github.com/videojs/videojs-vr#oculus-rift-and-htc-vive-support), it looks like the only mobile headset supported is the Gear VR, which it states requires Samsung Internet, a different browser. I probably can't do anything to help you anyway, but would you care to share your use case just in case? (Which headset do you want to use, reasons for not using Youtube app)

Hi TimelordQ, In version 0.3.2 of this addon (just released) I use an entirely new method to display videos in VR that natively supports the Oculus API. Could you please give it another try and let me know how it works out? Besides that, do you have Oculus set to allow "Unknown Sources" in "General" settings? It's the same setting that allows you to play Steam games on an Oculus Rift, so if you are able to do that you should be set. Thank you.

Hey! Thanks for rating the addon, I'm glad you're enjoying it. I don't use any conversion for equirectangular to plane, equirectangular footage just gets put on a spherical skybox so that's really easy. EAC (Equi angular cubemap) on the other hand is a proprietary Youtube format and as you noticed my formula doesn't quite work. This is my formula, which is awful: gl_FragColor = texture2D(src, vec2((2.0/pi*atan((vUV.x-0.5)*2.0)+0.5)/3.0+1.0/3.0, (2.0/pi*atan((vUV.y-0.5)*2.0)+0.5)/2.0+0.5)); It's based on the formula in this article: https://blog.google/products/google-vr/bringing-pixels-front-and-center-vr-video/ just before the end of the article. I did just find something called video-js that apparently has good support for EAC, when I have time, I'll see if I can utilize their formula or their player.

Hello again, sorry for the 8 month late reply. I just released a new version of this addon, 0.3.2, that now uses videojs-vr in the backend, an open source VR video player that can be found here https://github.com/videojs/videojs-vr
Videojs-vr seems to have about the same level of support for EAC as this addon used to, I don't find the lines any more or less noticeable. However, I thought I'd update you on this since you expressed interest in improving the algorithm. In case you're still interested, this commit (https://github.com/videojs/videojs-vr/pull/179/files) shows the location of the EAC code within videojs-vr, and also gives sample EAC videos. The code for this addon can also now be found on github (https://github.com/jtank4/Youtube-VR), however now all it does is include a videojs-vr player into the page.
