steamvr_utils's Issues

Daemon wont start

Hi, saw a thread on /r/linux_gaming about this project so I decided to try it out so I wont have to write the script myself, but I can't get it to launch.

Getting the following output

[~/steamvr_utils] ./scripts/steamvr_utils.py daemon

The only thing I changed in the config was disable the base station feature and the regex for my headphones:

[~/steamvr_utils/config] diff config_template.yaml config.yaml 
9c9
<   enabled: true  # Boolean. Enable the Base Station component.
---
>   enabled: false  # Boolean. Enable the Base Station component.
16c16
<   normal_sink_regex: ''  # Regex. Used to find the audio sink of the regular audio device. Leave empty to detect automatically (not recommended).
---
>   normal_sink_regex: '.*analog.*'  # Regex. Used to find the audio sink of the regular audio device. Leave empty to detect automatically (not recommended).

It also guesses wrong on the "vr sink" which should be hdmi-stereo-extra3, but the "device.product.name" wont show up in "pacmd list-cards" for my Index before starting SteamVR.

Failed to execute management command 'scanend'

Hello everyone. After finding out that the lightouses on steam vr for linux are borked i wanted to give this script a try.
But unfortunately it seems like my computer hates bluethoot with a passion and it just refuses to work.
Whenever I launch the scrip for turning on the base stations the following error pops up:

It would be really cool if I managed to get it working

Authentication Issues triggered by steam launch commands

So I'm having this very weird issue where if i use the Steam launch commands to launch steamvr my system will suddenly stop accepting passwords. Sometimes it happens on startup of SteamVR other times it happens when SteamVR is closed and hangs. The only solution is to reboot. Invoking the scripts manually does not cause this issue. I correctly set all all the parameters and am very perplexed by this. dmesg will output something about usb failures with the -110 code which isn't very helpful.

Daemon crashes when sink input has no client ID

Hi,

in my PulseAudio setup I use the modules module-echo-cancel and module-loopback. Both will create sink inputs without a client ID:

$ pact list short sink-inputs
0	1	-	module-echo-cancel.c	float32le 2ch 32000Hz
3	4	-	module-loopback.c	s16le 2ch 44100Hz

resulting in a ValueError

[question / feature request] get status

Hello again!
I have recently been wondering if it is or would be possible to get the status of the base stations (on/off) as to use a toggle method for activating and deactivating the base stations.
Do you know if this is at all possible to poll from the stations and/or if it would be something of a usable feature for the steamvr_util.py script ?

something along the lines of: steamvr_util.py status/active
returning something like: enabled / disabled / active / inactive / true / false

What do you think ?

I recently got my hands on a stream deck and am trying to build my own version of streamdeck-ui (I just want to).
So, what I was thinking was if I had a button set to poll the status of the base stations every so and so many seconds and change the icon and/or text accordingly.

Test V1 Base Station Support

@Firestorm7893
I added support for V1 Base Stations in cb58f33.
Can you please test if works?
Your config:

basestation:
  enabled: true  # Boolean. Enable the Base Station component.

  # ==== FOR V1 AND V2 BASE STATIONS ====
  attempt_count_set: 5  # Int >0. Number of attempts to set the power state of Base Station.

  # ==== FOR V2 BASE STATIONS (from Valve) ONLY ====
  type: 'v1'  # Enum(v1, v2). Version of your Base Stations.
  attempt_count_scan: 5  # Int >0. Maximum number of attempts to find Base Stations.

  # ==== FOR V1 BASE STATIONS (from VIVE) ONLY ====
  lh_b_mac: '40:4E:36:BD:A8:45'  # String(XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX). Bluetooth MAC address of Lighthouse B.
  lh_b_id: '62F5DDD9'  # String(XXXXXXXX). ID of Lighthouse B (printed on the back).
  lh_c_mac: '40:4E:36:BD:A1:38'  # String(XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX). Bluetooth MAC address of Lighthouse C.
  lh_c_id: '0E97C927'  # String(XXXXXXXX). ID of Lighthouse C (printed on the back).
  # See https://github.com/risa2000/lhctrl for details.

Not working on arch linux

So I tried to run it on garuda linux and I'm unable to make it work. I installed all dependacy. I did manage to start my base station but since then I was never able to turn them off. Bluepy is always unable to connect to my base base station evens if he find them.. I'm going mad... I also I'm using pipewire but I disable the audio component since It make problem

Base stations turning on and off repeating 5 times (attempt_count_set count)

Was just going to look into something in VR today and have been using steamvr_utils for some time now without problems.
click vr icon in steam where the master base station spins up (at a louder / faster mirror spin rate than normal) then stops, then repeats the same count as is stated in the config for attempt_count_set.

I tried switching from the current latest linux steamvr version to the linux beta version, same problem.

waited for the base station to spin down (fail out), then started steamvr without starting the base stations, then unplugged and replugged the power for the master base station (station b), it spins up (at a normal mirror spin rate) and triggers station c like it normaly would.

Now, this started happening only today so I suspect it might be something that changed with some f'ing update from ubuntu that messed with it.

Ubuntu 20.04.3
Kernel 5.17.1 generic (Mainline)
Mesa 22.1.0-devel

Any suggestions to what could be causing this ?

After Update suddenly the script doesn't find basestations anymore.

Hi,

after i updated my Arch Linux recently, the script doesn't seem to find the basestations anymore.

I have a feeling it has to do with a Python update to 3.11.3 but i can't seem to find the exact problem.

Here is a log from a recent try to activate the basestations, wich prior to updateing some weeks ago worked perfectly fine. Also i can use a android app to activate the basestations, so the stations are fine.

Any ideas what could be the problem here?

The Daemon is intefering with OBS Audio Device Capture

When using OBS the Daemon will constantly switch my input devices back to the Radio Mic. We need a way to disable this portion of the switching as I cannot use steamvr_utils while streaming now. Even newly added capture sources have this issue. Specifically it will automatically set my desktop capture to the Radio Mic instead of the HDMI output and changing it in pavucontrol will see it change right back the next time the daemon makes it's check

Issues with audio automatic switching

Sorry for bugging you again, but I'm having some troubles with the audio component.
I adapted your script to work with the Vive lighthouses so I got that part figured out, what's missing for this setup to be perfect is the automatic audio switch.
For sure i configured something wrong (even though the debug strings it prints makes it look like it chose the right sinks) but whenever i start VrUtils it crashes with this error:

Audio switching not working with pactl ver 16.1

2 script changes are needed for microphone switching to work (it's probably very similar for outputs):

Change line 25 in 'steamvr_utils/scripts/audio/source_switcher.py' from
from
return 'move-source-output'
to
return 'set-default-source'
Change line 142 in 'steamvr_utils/scripts/audio/stream_switcher.py'
from
arguments = ['pactl', self.get_move_stream_connection_command(), str(stream_connection.id), stream.name]
to
arguments = ['pactl', self.get_move_stream_connection_command(), stream.name]

Have a good one. I'll consider making a code contribution.

install.py returns wrong path

for me, install.py returns python3 /home/termy/projects/git/steamvr_utils/./scripts/steamvr_utils.py daemon >>/tmp/steamvr_utils.out 2>&1; %command%; where it should be python3 /home/termy/projects/git/steamvr_utils/scripts/steamvr_utils.py daemon >>/tmp/steamvr_utils.out 2>&1; %command%; (notice the /./ "subfolder" before /scripts )

Edit: and i just noticed, the desktop files contain the wrong paths, too:

Exec=python3 /home/termy/projects/git/steamvr_utils/./scripts/steamvr_utils.py off
Icon=/home/termy/projects/git/steamvr_utils/./scripts/../images/icon_off.png

So /. is too much on Exec and /./scripts/.. is too much on Icon

I guess that might be because i followed the instructions in the readme and ran ./scripts/install.py from the basedir?

readme.md typo + missing pip module

Hi,
Typo:

./scripts/steamvr_utils.py deamon

./scripts/steamvr_utils.py daemon

On Manjaro psutil for pip3 was missing, might help others ?

sudo pip3 install psutil

Nice Job tho 👍

Feature request: External commands for basestation management

My PC that I use for VR doesn't have any bluetooth capabilities but I have lots of running raspberry pis which I could use for this.

Would it be possible to have a configuration for an external command to execute instead of the regular bluetooth to switch the basestation on/off? Then I could set up a copy of this on a rpi and execute the command over ssh.

Hello again, this isn't a direct problem and more of a question.
I recently got a Vive Pro since I was suspecting my old Vive was starting to fail (It wasn't, but that's fine).
Now, with the new BS V2(?) they connect and operate in a different way then the V1(?) BS's.
They require that I run this utility as root (sudo) for it to work because of BLE.

I'm wondering if you have any method that would allow the user to be able to toggle the BS's power on and off without needing root (sudo) ?

It's not an actual problem, but more a hindrance to the automation of this script being run on SteamVR startup/shutdown since I now must run the script as root with on/off to power the BS's on/off.

Valve Index sink not found

I've just recently switched from Win10 to Manjaro and am encountering some major audio issues for the VR (everything worked fine back in Win10).
I tried setting the vr_sink_regex in the config.yaml to .displayport. since the hmd is connected via DisplayPort to my computer. But even after trying this, the device wasn't found. My hmd is connected properly as I can play with it in vr - just without any sound.
The output from the hmd is also not listed within the OS sound settings, however the input mic is shown there.

Thanks for any help. I'm currently reaching my limits on how to fix the issue...

[Request] Standby mode

Standby (motor on, laser off) would be a good addition to the base station script.

To be fully honest, I am not even using the scripts provided in this repo, I just want to know what state to use in order to bring my base stations with original firmware to this mode, if possible at all.

Judging by the code in Lighthouse PM, the state should be 0x02, however it didn't do anything from my own testing. Perhaps I need to update my firmware (which may soon be a thing in SteamVR beta)?
