USB-C Mode on Meta Quest (BETA)

**Please note the following:

  • USB-C cable needs to support  data + power and NOT support high throughput (E.g. Preferably 480mb/s and NOT 5Gbps+). If you need a cable, here is one we recommend.
  • You're unable to use the native Meta Quest recording feature 
  • While screen contents are streamed via USB-C to computer, both headset and computer still require a Wi-Fi & internet connection at launch.
