[Vive process start even when services are disabled]

I have the Viveport software installed. While testing on the Oculus, I set the Vive services to disabled and reboot. Occasionally the Vive processes still start up and take controll of the VR headset from the Oculus Home SDK and drop me in to the SteamVR / Vive loading screen. I have to use task manager to manually kill off the processes before I can continue developing.

 

I don't think users should have to disable the services or kill processes. The Vive processes should not auto load and take control unless the Vive is actively being used. For users that own both the Vive and Oculus, this may lead them to uninstall the Viveport software.

Hi Jumbi!

 

Thank you for highlighting this to us. We are currently testing this and we will get back to you.

Do you know how long it takes the headset to go into standby mode? I've noticed when I put my controllers and headset down and walk away, sometimes after a few minutes it will be deactivated in SteamVR. Usually mess's up my tracking and I restart steamvr.

After waking up from standby mode, it should restart tracking and you should not need to restart SteamVR. Could you share more details about your environment and the SteamVR version installed. Thanks!
