It defaults to something auto, which will likely put it above 100, but most of the benefits get lost in the endoding/decoding for streaming after rendering so 100% seems like a reasonable fixed setting. SteamVR > Settings > Video > Application Resolution set to 100%. In Steam VR settings (in the headset in VR, not in Steam on the PC). Launch Steam VR from the Virtual Desktop menu option in the Quest (left controller menu button).

Launch Virtual Desktop on the Quest and connect to your PC (your PC should be listed).

It is safe to stay connected while you play VR games. Manually set your shadow app connection speed to 5 Mbps.

(optional) Buy a new router! I purchased a $27 dual band router from Amazon and only my Quest connects to it. Switch to the H.264 codec on the virtual desktop streamer PC app and uncheck 'Automatically Adjust Bitrate'. Move wireless/Bluetooth devices or anything that can cause radio interference away from your router and Quest. Switch to dedicated 802.11n/ac wireless mode (router settings). Try not to overlap channels, co channel interference is better than adjacent.

Use a wireless survey tool (the Android app WifiAnalyzer (Open Source) is recommended) to make sure your router is the only nearby router on its channel. You may need to disable the 'Smart Connect' feature. If you have a tri band router you need only one of the 5Ghz bands to have a unique SSID. Make sure you aren't too far away from your router and/or have no obstacles/walls in betweenĬreate separate SSIDs (wireless network names) for your wireless bands (2.4Ghz and 5Ghz) and connect the Quest solely to the 5Ghz (with no other devices). Make sure to reboot your PC after install. Quit the setup (you don't actually need to add a headset).

Install the Oculus PC app (located here ) and during the setup, choose Rift and then 'skip headset setup'. Install the Streamer App (download at ) on your PC and within the Streamer App specify your Oculus username that you have registered in the Quest. Install Steam, Steam VR, and your desired VR games. Purchase Virtual Desktop in the Oculus Store on Quest, install on the Quest and then sideload the SideQuest version of Virtual Desktop ( ). All steps that mention computer/steam configurations should be done on your Shadow, nothing is done on a local computer. This guide will assume you already have access to your Shadow PC and nothing else has been done to get VD working. I followed these steps and immediately had a great experience. This is all just copy/pasted from the Virtual Desktop discord. Hey Questers! I've been enjoying Shadow PC so much lately that I figured I'd compile an easy to follow setup guide in case anyone wanted to take the plunge.
