Bug Stereoscopic Capture value not working

Hey Guys,

So I've been testing the Unity Recorder function with Timeline.

Have it all working except, the stereoscopic value doesn't seem to do anything, regardless of what value I
input.
Can go from 0.064 all the way up to 640.0 and left and right equirectangulars are still the same.

Have also tried the camera script to generate the left and right cubemaps, and the new built in option in the unity recorder. (See attached).
Both output the same.

Anyone else had this issue?

Also have an issue with some weird artifacts, that seem to generate some noise which is fixed on the frame, in the shape of a triangle.

But one problem at a time,

Cheers,
Lee

 

Hi cguertin.

Using Unity 2019.2.6f1. HDRP.
Recorder version 2.0.3-preview.1

I was just using the default HDRP scene as a test basis.

Have exported out the scene as a package to test.

Cheers for your help,

Ok thanks,
i'll look out for an update, as ideally want to use the 2 together.

The other issue I am getting with the equirectangular output, is a weird triangular artifact that seems to be locked in place on the image, and causes a lot of grain.

I've put together a gif that shows the camera pushing in towards the scene, but the artifact staying in the same place.

 

@cguertin any update on this? The latest version of HDRP still doesn't support Stereo Capture feature....
Is this something we can expect in the future?

 

Thanks, that's great news!! Yes I hope it will be fixed in the API level as well as the Recorder. Thanks, looking forward to it!

 

@cguertin any update on this issue? Running into the same issue using URP and AVPro Movie Capture. Unity 2019.3.15f1

 

Just tested this again in 2019.4.0f1 and I cannot get stereoscopic 360 capture using Unity Recorder in a URP project. Both top and bottom are identical regardless of inter-eye distance setting. Do you have an update on what version will fix the support for this, or the timeline? Thanks.

 

Any news on this? I can't even generate monoscopic 360 in URPL

 

I'm having the same problem in Unity 2019.4.1 with URP. The stereo separation parameter has no effect and the left/right images are the same. I have 360 capture enabled in the settings and disabled VR, since that is recommended in the docs for capture mode.

I'm using a custom render script for output. Here's my original code, which produces identical left and right images no matter what the stereo separation value is set to. Btw VRStereoSeparation is an exposed value in the inspector.

Code (CSharp):

1.                            
2. CubemapCamera.stereoSeparation = VRStereoSeparation;
3. CubemapCamera.RenderToCubemap(CubemapLeft, 63, Camera.MonoOrStereoscopicEye.Left);
4. CubemapCamera.RenderToCubemap(CubemapRight, 63, Camera.MonoOrStereoscopicEye.Right);
5. CubemapLeft.ConvertToEquirect(Equirect, Camera.MonoOrStereoscopicEye.Left);
6. CubemapRight.ConvertToEquirect(Equirect, Camera.MonoOrStereoscopicEye.Right);
7.  

My workaround for now is to use a separate camera for left and right eye and to offset the left camera.

Code (CSharp):

1.                          
2. CubemapCameraL.transform.localPosition = new Vector3(VRStereoSeparation, 0f, 0f);
3. CubemapCameraL.RenderToCubemap(CubemapLeft, 63, Camera.MonoOrStereoscopicEye.Left);
4. CubemapCameraR.RenderToCubemap(CubemapRight, 63, Camera.MonoOrStereoscopicEye.Right);
5. CubemapLeft.ConvertToEquirect(Equirect, Camera.MonoOrStereoscopicEye.Left);
6. CubemapRight.ConvertToEquirect(Equirect, Camera.MonoOrStereoscopicEye.Right);
7.  

 

Hi @cguertin

Is stereo capture still a feature we can expect to be implemented in URP/HDRP?

Thanks,

 

Sorry to bump, any news on the enabling of stereo capture with HDRP?
Thanks

 

*bump*

 

*BUMP*

 

It's almost 2021 and it's still not fixed, when can we expect an update?

 

Is there a workaround for the moment, because adding two camera's with seperation isn't the same as how ODS works.

 

In Unity 2021.1.4, recorder 2.5.5, hdrp 11.0.0, still not working :/

I try now the two cam workaround. What do you mean with ODS @XR-studio?

 

Hi,

Have there been any further updates as it's been nearly a year since your last response? Is there no support for 2020 or 2021?

Thanks,
Jonathan

 

*bump* support for this on URP / HDRP would be great....

 

did you find a way to do this in the end?

 

Bump.. stull working in URP 2020.3.14f

Mono 360 works great

Any chance of a 3d180 setting?

 

bump
it's been 3 years....

 

Bump

 

3 YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

i got 3d360 working (URP) - can turn off recording read face of the cube - since i don't need it for 3d180.. then i use premiere to re-format to side by side equirectangular for 3d180

 

But does it really work? I mean I'm sure you get the recording but is it a proper stereo? When I tried it, only bits of the scene where properly "stereo" (mostly text) but for the actual scene stereo separation did not work and both left and right eye were recorded from the same "center" position.
