How to disable VR apps (Oculus, Steam, GoPro) to launch automatically

Hi

I recently bought a Oculus Rift and installed programs like SteamVR, the Oculus app and GoPro VR player.

When I now open a Premiere CC project, they start automatically and claim all the resources from the graphics card.

- I already disabled autostart for those apps.

- The Rift is not connected to the PC, nor are the sensors.

- graphics card Nvidea geforce gtx970

Everytime the 'Monitor' pane starts, all those apps start automatically.

Any an idea how to disable this?

Premiere is now totally sluggish and I can hardly work anymore.

Any thoughts are welcome, Thanks

Have you checked if you don't have any of those activated in the playback menu? You can also check if you have any plugin installed the Premier Pro folder. That might cause the autostart for those programs.1000px-Autopano_Video_Pro-_-AdobePlugin-_-Activation.png !

Hi,

I’ve turned off the GoPro box on the playback screen. That helps.

Does anyone one know how to completely remove it on a Mac so I don’t have to do this? I can’t find “GoPro” files anywhere on my system.

Thanks!

You probably have to stop the Oculus service from running.

You can do this by clicking Start, typing services and then disabling the Oculus services in the list.

Alternatively, you can use a batch file to automate this process:

    Thanks! I disabled the service from automatically starting. Helped too! The article you mentioned was also good to know (Rift ovwerheating due to running service).

    Thanks everyone. One happy editor again :-)

      Thanks! That really helped. I was totally not aware that VR devices were put in Premiere CC display settings.
