360+3D video supported by FOVE?
Adjust the selection of the left and right eye viewports
I think that can play the top and bottom images.
However, 360+3D video is divided into 4 screens.
I don't know how to set 360 + 3d video settings
360+3d What is the way to see the video?
tested it with AV Pro Video for unity3d,
Although video is played via 'unity'. It can not be seen through FOVE.
Can not you see the image directly at fove without going through the video player

I am bit late but it may help another starters like me. I have updated the sample unity project having facility of viewing 360 video from a local video file, also it have the eye tracking facility while playing the video.
Ref: https://github.com/mdavidkhan/FOVE_Unity_360_video_playerAlthough I do appreciate any updates in existing project.
Good Luck

Hi,
While FOVE does not come with any builtin video player, it's possible to display 3D video in FOVE, including from Unity. It takes a little work to write a 360 video player application, but I can describe the general process.
The first step is to decompress the video into a texture. I'm not familiar with AV Pro Video for Unity, but you might be able to use it for that purpose.
Then, the resulting texture must be correctly texture mapped onto a sphere. For stereo video, usually there's 2 screens on the texture from the video, each of which gets mapped to a separate sphere using different UV coordinates. One sphere for each eye.
Then each frame you render the textures onto the sphere using the FOVE Unity plugin, which will ensure that the rendered images are submitted to the compositor for output on the HMD.
