Bigscreen enables people to watch videos in VR with friends through a variety of ways! Share your desktop screen, watch high quality, premium 3D movies, attend live rocket launch events, play your own video files using our new videoplayer feature, and much more!
Watch your favorite movies with friends and family around the world in a cozy home theater or a massive IMAX-style cinema! Relive the good ol' days when you hung out with friends IRL and played video games in the basement until 4AM. Screen cheat or strategize and play together! Instead of that tiny 13" laptop, play any game on massive, customizable screens. Wrap the virtual screen around you for a more immersive experience.
See your PC's desktop screen on huge virtual monitors! There's multi-monitor support for up to three virtual monitors and all customizable to any shape or size. With desktop screensharing and multi-monitor capabilities, you can also work alongside the videoplayer, enabling you to put the videoplayer on the big screen, while being
surrounded by monitors. This enables a mix of productivity and entertainment, creating the ultimate workspace.
Bigscreen's partnership with movie studios, such as Paramount Pictures, provides official movie broadcasts and enables you to rent and watch high quality 3D movies in VR. You can also watch movies in side-by-side 3D or over-under 3D directly from your desktop. Our videoplayer supports many file formats and codecs, including 3D movies!
Worried about not having the same VR headset? There's cross-platform VR headset support for the Oculus Rift, Oculus Rift S, Oculus Quest, HTC Vive, any SteamVR headset, and any Windows Mixed Reality headset!
Want to socialize a bit? Create or join public or private rooms for up to 12 people! Check out what other people are doing in their rooms, hang out, and make new friends!
Find a scene that fits your mood! Choose from a variety of environments such as an actual movie theater, a retro-styled theater, a space station, campfires, modern living rooms, and more!
Maybe you're not always here to watch a video or a movie. 3D markers are available for you to create images in the virtual space, and you can share that with anyone that hangs out in your room. They might even want to draw beside you!

Works great. Playing games is much smoother using this than the built in SteamVR theatre.
Please add ability to watch 360 videos and photos!
i do not look at as much as a game but more of awesome application and should be givin the option to run it in place of big picture
I just tried out the multiple monitor support. This is the feature I've been wanting, and its great. This is my favorite vr desktop app. It is fairly easy to position the monitors so you don't notice the screen door effect so it doesn't hurt your eyes as much. I really hope that the next generation of headsets have high enough resolution so you can use them all day.
I would like to be able to rotate the monitors, Having to add lots of space between the monitors just to account for the spherical nature of how they attach to your center point is kind of annoying.
In the future it would be nice to have virtual monitors. For example I may only have one physicall monitor and a headset connected to my computer. But inside Bigscreen I could create 2+ virtual monitors(Install drivers so the os thinks it has two additional monitors. Look into the Air Display ios app). I use 4 monitors at work currently, and I dream of the day where I can have as many monitors as I want using a vr headset.
Bigscreen is a VR desktop and chatroom but the stand out feature is multiplayer screen sharing in VR. Singleplayer it is a solid virtual desktop with a good UI. In multiplayer each user can stream their desktop in the room as if each person had their own monitor. It is a very cool sensation to sit "side by side" with friends in the VR room and play a game online together, though the framerates will vary.
I used the Vive with a GTX 970 I was able to get ~20-30 FPS with Rocket League, and when watching the game on my friends' screens I got ~2 FPS. On a more gracefully streaming game, Tricky Towers, my friends mentioned they got around 10-15 FPS when watching my screen. There are a few steam settings that need to be changed to run games without closing Bigscreen, and some games will need to be in Borderless Window.
The tech is very impressive but I would have liked a bit more focus on privacy. Once a room is joined, the default setting is to immediately start streaming your desktop. Also, the Vive microphone was active by default. There didn't appear to be an easy way to mute that didn't involving aiming a laser pointer at a virtual screen. Regardless of these issues, it is an excellent VR desktop and chatroom with a good UI. The environments look good and have a couple of different orientations, such as a couch and TV or a bed with the screen projected on the ceiling. Absolutely worth giving it a try.
I watched a movie with someone in Virginia, someone in Dallas, and someone in Seattle while sitting on my couch in Southern California. Truely amazing use of this tech.
Bigscreen does a stunning job of providing you with a friendly environment that you can share with both friends and strangers.
I entered a room to watch John Wick, ran into an issue where my headset went black (twice) but I will not fault something classed as beta, what it does it does very well.
Being able to project your entire monitor onto a large wall so that each user can watch and listen at the same time is so basic yet so brilliant, it's the kind of VR experience we have all wanted and it's shaping up to be more than just a fun little tool to mess around in.
When VR becomes more maintsream I can see software like this becoming the norm and communication being redefined completely.
If you haven't tried it already, please do. It really does a great job of displaying your desktop nicely.
Most folks in Bigscreen are fairly cerebral and friendly. Met some Brits and a guy from Washington and we had a four man, guitar, jam session around a campfire. It is limited to four folks per room which is nice in that you have more control over your company. You can watch movies and listen to music and trouble shoot VR tech issues. Pretty great stuff!
This is one of my favorite uses for VR.
I've spent entire evenings in this "apartment," watching Netflix, doing stuff for work and hanging out with other people watching YouTube. One time, I fell asleep watching a movie and woke up a bit confused because I was still in my beautiful fake apartment.
I demo the Vive to a lot of people, and everyone has a different app/game that really gets them as "The Thing" that makes VR magic to them. I'd say this app 'gets' probably 1 out of 5 people as the jaw-dropping thing that they love. (And that's strong, because the rest of the 4/5 is split across probably 10 other cool things).
When VR glasses get smaller and wireless, I'm probably going to live in this apartment about as much as I do my own. Don't judge me.
My friend says he loves it :D I only wish there was some janky version to use it w/o a $600 headset :( Nothing agains the application, but it would be fun to join my friend in his virtual safehaven. Pls send love to the homeless and poor <3
For a free game/app it is very well developed and fun. Even useful. I did tech support for family across the country by looking over their shoulder!
UPDATE: Now with multiple monitor support....OFF-THE-SCALE AWESOMENESS!!!!!. Works really well too.
Very impressed with this. Strange to say perhaps, but its just a plain nice place to be. Stick on some nice music and just sit on the north balcony and relax. Shame the enviroment backgrounds weren't animated but hey, you cant have everything. The cinemas are great too, to make it perfect I need to find some sort of EQ/DSP effects to give the sound a suitable reverb level for the room though. Great stuff, keep up the good work!
I love this thing. I've been using it to Watch Anime, Netflix and unnamed movies from a unnamed movie site through my Vive. Anime looks particularly good. Things look layered. Characters look like they are standing in the enviroment(I have a Mainstream anime site subscription, so I'm watching it at the best quality).
Over 9000/10
To be Honest, I consider this a Must have for any VR HMD.
You will fine regulars who has a theme room going on every day or weekly basis. If your always watching / streaming shows online - Might as well do it here or Virtual Desktop.
Come find me every first Saturday of month as I host a Rocky Horror Picture Show, Audience Participation!

[*] You won't feel like you are running on Beta
In Bigscreens, the most cool stuff to do is to play alone to watch movies or documentary on your own theater sized screen and actually in your own theater. Meeting people who love virtual reality and who will try to speak with you if you have a minimum english speaking level, and sharing awesome contents eachothers.
Just stop reading reviews and buy it, you won't regret.
If developers are reading this, it'd be awesome to make us able to moove in environements and not just sitting.
And thanks a lot for your work.
This is one of the coolest experiences I have ever had in my life. The best wasy to describe it is that it is like having a LAN party with your friends, even though they are at their house.
Downloaded this only to watch movies on my rift, but when I discovered the multiplayer rooms, my mind was blown. You literally are teleported to a room with other people and you can play games together, watch movies together, or just hang out. It is a free program, give it a shot!
The best desktop visualizer out there at the moment, and it's completely free. The support staff is also top notch.
wonderful game with tons of great potential. excellent for chilling out and talking with friends while still having the ability to play around on your computer. wonderful idea and very well made!
A great social experience for friends in VR, and even with strangers. You've heard all that before.
I used it for escapism, and it worked wonders. Binging a show on Netflix, except instead of my measly dorm room, I'm now in an extravagant loft, laying on a couch. Instead of laying on a bed, head turned to the side, to watch off a monitor a few feet away, I was laying on my back, head nestled into my pillows, as I kicked back and had a massive screen right where I look.
The devs are great and will help you with anything you may need, and lots of features and improvements are always in the works. For the low low price of free, why not give it a go?
This app... This app is essential for VR. Truly outstanding.
It's a tool (bring your Desktop to VR)
It's a virtual Cinema (yes, SBS 3D-Movies work).
It's a way to play all your non-VR gsmes in VR, albeit not natively, but on a virtual Screen.
It's a social experience, where you can experience the beforementioned features together with other people, who are represented with their virtual avatars (Heads/Hands).
So, I just experienced one of those goosebumps inducing moments: started a public room. Switched to the cinema-preset. Started VLC-player, put it on the virtual silverscreen, started "The Matrix". Room was joined by others, watched the beginning of the movie together, sitting "next" to each other...
10/10, would jack in to the matrix again.
Now that you can stream audio this is just about the best place to share screens and be able to share content between friends that live distances away with VR. Very immersive and quite interesting for what it is. Just wish the Vive's glasses were higher resolution and all my friends had one! :-)
