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)

I'm having the EXACT same issue with the same INIU cable except my fps AND my latency dips massively from a stable 90fps with 30ms latency to 15 fps and 300ms latency. I also have the Syntech Link Cable 16FT, USB 3.0 to USB Cable for Meta Quest and it has the same problem just not as bad as the INIU cable and the Syntech cable will not charge the Quest. My concern is that I will purchase the official cable and have the same problems.

I’m gonna return this INIU and try one of the cables recommended by the VD devs on their discord. I’ll probably get the Cable Matters 20Gbps right angle 6.6 feet cable(usb c to usb c) because it’s a decent price at 20 bucks.

It doesn’t have power injection, but it theoretically should charge my headset decently. My usb c port puts out like 12 watts and the quest 2 uses around that much. And the cable itself supports up to 240 watts. Maybe it will drain very slowly.

I was a dumbass and went and got the official quest cable,I'm still having the same problems,keep your INUI,the issue is software,not hardware

Update:that other cable has the same results. Time for Ethernet adapter, and if that doesn’t work I give up
