An important issue that you must consider that in Oculus Rift VR resolution for each eye is not Full HD as the headset uses two separate OLED displays that receive their visual information from very powerful PCs running some of the world's best graphics cards. So you can free change your target video size, bitrate, frame rate in "Settings". Here, 720p (1280*720) with a higher bitrate around 5mbit/s is recommended.

How to Watch Movies On The Oculus Rift (Development Kit 2 DK2)? 

Here we go:

Step 1: Properly labeling your 360 and 3D videos
Before you can move your 360 and 3D videos to the Videos folder in your Windows system drive, it must be labeled in the proper format for Oculus to render it correctly.

Label 3D videos:

For 3D panoramic videos, top-bottom, bottom-top, left-right and right-left stereoscopic video support are implemented using the following naming convention:

Naming conventions used to label your 3D panoramic video:

"_TB.mp4" or "_360_TB.mp4" - Top / bottom 3D
"_BT.mp4" or "_360_BT.mp4" - Bottom / top 3D
"_LR.mp4" or "_360_LR.mp4" - Left / right side by side 3D
"_RL.mp4" or "_360_RL.mp4" - Right / left side by side 3D

Please add the proper naming convention to the end of your video file name.

Example: If your video file was MyCoolVideo.mp4, label it asMyCoolVideo_360_TB.mp4.

Label 360 videos:

360 videos in Oculus are implemented using spherical mapping to render panoramic videos. For your 360 video to be compatible with Oculus, add "_360" to the end of your file name. Example: If your video file was MyCoolVideo.mp4, label it as MyCoolVideo_360.mp4.

Step 2: Transfer your videos to Oculus Video

The Oculus Video app for Rift pulls video files from your default Windows video folder. To transfer your video files to the Windows Video folder:

Open your Windows System drive (this is generally your C: drive).
Open the Users folder.
Select your user profile.

Play MKV Movie files More smoothly on Mac OS Sierra


MKV format is a very popular video format that is supported by the majority of media players. But Mac's MKV support is not that good and many Mac users may suffer stuttering playback when watching MKV with preinstalled QuickTime, especially after upgrading macOS 10.12 Sierra. This article will share two easy methods to play MKV on MacOS Sierra, so that you can have a smooth MKV playback on MacOS with ease.


Method 1. Play MKV on macOS Sierra with QuickTime Component [No 100% work guarantee]

Perian is a open-source software app that makes viewing your media files easier. Basically, Perian enables QuickTime application support for a wide variety of media files. It installs easily as long as you have no software already installed that can conflict with Perian. So, before installing Perian, you need to remove all QuickTime Components installed on your Mac, like FFusion, Xvid Delegate, 3ivX, DivX, DivX Decoder, XviD, msmpeg4v1, msmpeg4v2, AviImporter, EX_M4S2, Casio AVI Importer, AC3 Codec, and MatroskaQT. 


Bottom Line: Perian does not work with QuickTime 10 or above, and the development team for Perian will cease updates in the near future to move to another project. Still, if you use earlier versions of QuickTime 7 and run into file format issues (especially on migrated files), then Perian is a must-have. Its support for a huge number of file formats makes this a useful utility for most people. 

Plus, the latest version 1.2.3 of Perian doesn't work on Mac OS X Mavericks, Yosemite, El Capitan and the latest macOS Sierra because Perian requires installation of Quicktime 7, which doesn't exist for Mavericks and above. 

Method 2. You can try other MKV Players for Mac [Not always work]

1. VLC Player 

This app is a popular Mac MKV Player. Beware though that the quality of MKV playback with VLC player certainly needs an improvement, and the app itself consumes quite a bit of CPU memory. 


2. UMPlayer 

Universal Media Player (UMPlayer) like VLC is an open-source media player which has inbuilt codecs to play .mkv, .avi and can play .webm video on Mac OS. 


3. MPlayerX 

In comparison to the VLC media player, MPlayerX is not that popular. However, it is still one of the most widely used video players among the Mac users. It plays most of the popular file formats including the MPEG, VOB, AVI, ASF, WMA, WMV, VIVO, QT, MOV, MP4, OGG, OGM, RealMedia, Matroska, NUT, NuppelVideo and much more.  


Bottom Line: If you want to play MKV on QuickTime and run macOS Sierra, El Capitan, Yosemite, Mavericks, not all players will work perfectly, for example, the video is too dark, choppy; the video and audio can not sync; some subtitles can not be played; some DVD or other video file can not be played; some free player crashes.

Worse still, players like VLC can play lots of video formats, like MP4, AVI, MKV, AVI, WMV, etc, but not all of them, like AAF, DAT, MXF, etc. 

Method 3. Convert MKV videos to macOS Sierra supported formats [Recommend]

So to avoid MKV players related problems and to save time in looking for third-party QuickTime components, the alternative method here is to convert the MKV video format to the macOS Sierra QuickTime supported video format, such as MOV.   

Although there are some free video converter, like VisualHub, Handbrake, etc., to convert MKV videos, they are usually hard to use and only support limited formats. For an easy to use MKV video converter, Dimo Video Converter Ultimate for Mac deserves you try. It can do the MKV file conversion like a charm, without any hassle and supports the latest macOS Sierra and Windows 10. What makes it excels is that It provides you with the optimized output video settings for iPad, iPhone, Apple TV and many mobile phones. One click to convert MKV to be iDevice compatible. 

See Its Essential Features:

* Convert MKV  to macOS Sierra supported formats like MOV and MP4 with both rather fast speed and original quality

* Compatible with macOS 10.6 or later, including 10.12 Sierra and 10.11 El Capitan, Windows 10/8/7/XP/Vista.
