Oculus Rift & OpenTPCast - I Forced to restart pc to get rift audio detected by VirtualHere

Submitted by Patrice_VR on #1

Hey Guys,

I've got a very annoying issue with VirtualHere.

it works only after my pc has been restarted, because if I unplug my TPCast's battery or if I restart virtualHere when it has been already in use, it won't be able to detect the rift audio again. Only the rift's raw will appear. If I restart my computer then, virtualhere will be able to detect again both and so, I will see the rift line and the one for the audio.

So, How I can initialize virtualhere manually to avoid being forced to restart my computer all the time.
I looked for a service or a process which would be still in background to restart it but I find nothing.

I wanna make a bat or a powershell to kill it and make it work again without restarting.

Thanks for all

I've just found a solution for that issue. It comes from bonjour service.
If you restart the service bonjour and then start virtualhere, It will be able to detect the audio again.

Yep 100% sure, tried 10 time in raw and works like a charm, it was just the bonjour service, before that I've never been able to do it 2 times in raw with restarting my PC
