The video is running smoothly in both the VR headset and on your desktop. It's an HP Reverb G2. Are there other programs that only stream the video through the headset instead of the monitor? That could help reduce CPU load. Your monitor has a 1440p resolution, GPU at 1080, with an i7-8700 CPU and 16GB RAM. Any suggestions?

The video uses a specific codec. Your system specifications are available. Have you explored videos in another format?

I don't have a physical CPU or GPU, but I can help you with information about them or assist in choosing one based on your needs.

mp4 is a container format, not a codec itself. The actual video codec inside it depends on the file type. Tools like VLC can identify the codec used.
