What is Casting?
Casting is when the Quest 3 sends the visuals and audio from the headset to another device, so others can see what’s happening in real-time. It uses Wi-Fi to stream the content to a compatible device.
How to Cast on Quest 3
- Prepare Your Devices:
- Ensure your Quest 3 and the device you’re casting to (TV, phone, or computer) are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
- If using a TV, it should support Chromecast or have a Chromecast device plugged in.
- Launch Casting:
- Put on your Quest 3 headset.
- Open the Quick Settings Menu by pressing the Oculus button on your controller and selecting the clock in the menu bar.
- In the Quick Settings panel, select “Cast”.
- Choose Your Casting Destination:
- Select a device from the list of available casting options:
- Smartphone: Use the Meta Quest app on your phone (available for iOS and Android).
- TV: Choose your TV with Chromecast support.
- Computer: Open a browser, go to meta.com/casting, and follow the instructions.
- Start Casting:
- Once you’ve selected the device, click “Start Casting” in the headset.
- The headset screen will now be mirrored on your chosen device.
- Stop Casting:
- To stop casting, go back to the Quick Settings menu and select “Stop Casting”.
Tips for Smooth Casting:
- Use a strong Wi-Fi connection for better performance and reduced lag.
- For TVs, Chromecast Ultra or built-in Chromecast features provide the best experience.
- If casting to a phone or computer, ensure the Meta Quest app or browser tab is active.
