Playing videos from local storage
You can play videos from VIVE Flow local storage through VIVEPORT Video, which supports
playback of standard (or flat), stereoscopic 3D, and 180- or 360-degree videos. Supported file
formats include: .mp4, .mkv, and .webm.
The VIVEPORT Video app on VIVE Flow can be used to play videos from local storage. You can
add videos to local storage manually by copying them from your computer to VIVE Flow. For
details, see Copying files from your computer to VIVE Flow on page 26.
1. If you're currently running an app, tap/press the VIVE button on the controller, and then
select Back to Home.
2. From Home, go to the Library and launch VIVEPORT Video.
If you don't see VIVEPORT Video in the Library, you'll have to download and install it using
the VIVEPORT VR app.
3. Select the folder that contains the video you want to play.
4. Point to the video you want to play and tap/press Trigger to open it.
5. While the video is playing, you can:
§ Play or pause the video using the playback controls.
§ Toggle the Mini Browser on or off.
§ Adjust the Visual Settings (below the playback controls) so you can watch the video
in a 180- or 360-degree view, on a curved or flat display, and more.
§ Add subtitles by selecting Select Audio and Subtitles (the message icon with 3
dots) below the playback controls and choosing a subtitle file associated with the
video.
§ Adjust general Settings such as autoplay and video looping.
§ Select Move & Resize, and then do either of the following:
§ Move: Press and hold Trigger, then drag the screen around to reposition it.
§ Resize: Select the plus and minus buttons or drag the slider to adjust the zoom
level.
You can also play back regular videos directly in the File browser. Copy the videos to the
Downloads folder on VIVE Flow to access them in the File browser. See Copying files from your
computer to VIVE Flow on page 26.
