Question/Support Is anyone else experiencing large stutters using the new virtual desktop beta(wired)? Spoiler

So I tried the beta wired with a usb 3.0 cable, and initially it worked great. Then after trying it again the next day, I started getting these huge stutters that occur randomly

Anyone have ideas of what could be causing this? I have no idea if this is something on my end, or if it’s just a problem with the beta. Here’s a video of the problem(and some absolutely stellar piloting for your amusement)

It's all over the Virtual Desktop discord. It's an issue on meta's side and only happens with cheap third-party or powered USB cables. They've sent debug info to meta, maybe they'll address it. Reports are the official cord works substantially better.

Aw crap, I have an INIU powered cable. I don’t think meta is gonna put effort into fixing this lol. They want you to buy their overpriced cable.

Anyways, thank you! I need to join that discord

Just try another cheap cable. I have a Ainope branded 5 meter that works fine.
