DeoVR now supports 10-bit color streaming and higher video bitrates, improving overall visual quality for compatible content.
10-bit color allows for over 1 billion colors, reducing banding and creating smoother gradients, especially in skies and shadows. Higher bitrate improves clarity by preserving more detail and reducing compression artifacts, particularly in complex or fast-moving scenes.
10-Bit Streaming
- Videos uploaded in 10-bit are now streamed in 10-bit (no longer converted to 8-bit)
- Provides more accurate and smoother color rendering
Higher Bitrate
- Increased maximum bitrate for streaming
- Results in better detail and fewer compression artifacts
Automatic Detection & Tags
- System detects video bit depth automatically
- High-quality videos may be tagged as:
10bithighbitrate
Device Compatibility
- Most modern VR headsets support 10-bit HEVC playback
- If your device does not support 10-bit, videos will still play normally in standard quality
Where You’ll Notice Improvements
Visual enhancements are most noticeable in:
- Smooth gradients (sky, fog, lighting)
- Skin tones and shadows
- High-motion or detailed scenes
