Is there a direct way to capture a VR headset screen correctly in vMix?

For OBS they have a plug in to help with it OpenVR, https://obsproject.com/f...openvr-input-plugin.534/

I know I can OBS capture to NDI to vMix except I wondered if there is a way I am missing to capture VR directly into vMix.
I have used vMix NDI Desktop Capture except the window is incorrect and it chops everything off, it is like a 16 X 9 image from a 4:3 field of view.

Thank you very much in advance for your help everyone.

That OBS Addon did not work it crashed OBS.

I finally found the correct answer and it is Oculus Mirror,
https://developer.oculus...ts/dg-compositor-mirror/

You find that program on your system and I made a shortcut.
I added some modifiers to the shortcut launcher and it runs great.
I changed(modifier) the size to
Code:
--size 1080 1080

It is a square format and my screen is only 1080 high so that is the maximum I could capture on this screen. If you have 4k then you can go higher. I also pinned it to the side of the screen which let me put a second screen next to it.

You then use vMix Desktop Capture to grab that window in vMix.
I cropped out any glitches and moved it to taste, since I record 16:9 and it is 1:1 you have a lot of screen real estate.

Very straight forward once you find that Oculus Mirror Program.

Hope this helps the next Oculus VR vMix recording person.
