Web video player not working for some videos
Some videos are not playable on web, throwing these errors on browser console:
WebGL: INVALID_VALUE: texImage2D: no video
[.WebGL-0x3c0a1b3800]RENDER WARNING: texture bound to texture unit 0 is not renderable. It might be non-power-of-2 or have incompatible texture filtering (maybe)?
They work fine on DeoVR
I don't think anyone is going to be able to help you much without the browser and the MediaInfo from the file. If I had to guess, it sounds like they're HEVC videos and you're using Firefox? They're the only ones that I can get to give any WebGL errors in the console. Browsers don't play nice with HEVC in general, both Google and Mozilla made a big deal out of it. Your only option is Microsoft Edge + HEVC Extensions, on Windows 10/11
The extension used to be free but you should still be able to install it using this link. If GitHub breaks that formatting, the link is ms-windows-store://pdp/?ProductId=9n4wgh0z6vhq or you can type this in a command prompt: start ms-windows-store://pdp/?ProductId=9n4wgh0z6vhq
That should take you directly to the Store page for them.

The only other browsers that natively support HEVC without a custom player are Safari on both iOS and macOS and Chrome/Samsung Browser on some Android devices with hardware support.
From a cursory search, it looks like it's technically possible to build Chromium with support for more audio/video codecs.
Chromium.org mentions GN flags, but you can't use them to add formats Chrome itself doesn't support Instructions for building Chromium (on Windows ???) with HEVC support Russian guy getting it working on Ubuntu, information may be outdated, but it is possible
@apache202119 cleaning up "dead" issues. This doesn't appear to be xbvr related.
