Hi, i'm trying to use this tool on a Pico neo 3 Link with a WiFi connection.

I have followed the documentation, and both the PC and the VR are connected to the same WiFi connettion (is a 5Ghz connection)

When i link both the tool on pc and vr, on the PC show the message that i'm connected
instead in the headset appear a loading screen that loop infinitely without having possibility to do anything else, and i'm forced to turn off the headset.

Am i doing something wrong?

Dear developer,
Could you please tell us what engine and SDK version you use and what PUI version you use?
Whether the tool works properly the first time, the device cannot display the content the second time.
In addition, have you tried the wired connection?

Hi, i'm currently using Windows 10 as OS and a Pico Neo 3 Link to test this tool
The SDk of the preview version is the 1.0 and the PUI of the pico is 4.7.1.6

I've tried both wifi and wired connection with a 3.0 usb port. in both the cases when i start the preview tool from PC and then the tool from the Pico, the Pico screen show a loading infintie loop and if I take of the connection between the pico and the PC, in the Pico still show the Loading screen.

I tried to se in the adb what message it show and i found this:

ContextImpl: Calling a method in the system process without a qualified user: android.app.ContextImpl.sendBroadcast:1045 android.content.ContextWrapper.sendBroadcast:448 com.picovr.streamingapplication.executor.USBTetheringExecutor.lambda$enableUsbTethering$1$USBTetheringExecutor:223 com.picovr.streamingapplication.executor.-$$Lambda$USBTetheringExecutor$2VL21K_4izhIj6m9MwE-TH7IgoA.accept:4 io.reactivex.rxjava3.internal.observers.LambdaObserver.onNext:63

Dear developer,
Could you please tell us what engine and Pico XR SDK version you use? Like Unity XR SDK v2.0.5.

When using the PreviewTool causes the headset to get stuck, you can try to exit the Preview Tool connection by pressing the back or Home button on HMD.

Hi,

I am using Unity 2020.3.27f1 . The preview tool works correctly the first time I click play in Unity (though the hands seems to be too large), the second time I start it the hands are not shown correctly at all and my movement is not tracked. How can I re-use the preview tool several times in a row? Do I have to shut down the connection everytime or smth?

Thank you
