Change the default style in the .ass to set a bigger font size.

A good player will read the subtitle file to get that kind of information, if available, instead of forcing its defaults(but there may also be an override setting to force that, which is also an option).

Does anyone here know if it's possible to move the subtitle position in Herepshere? It keeps appearing in the middle and blocking the girl's face/tits. I'd like to move it a bit to the right.

The subtitle settings menu can be opened by pressing on the "CC" icon above the seekbar. When viewing VR videos, the depth of the subtitles will be adjusted based on the autofocus depth. You can tweak the depth of the subtitles by adjusting the autofocus scale or setting a fixed distance. The vertical position of the subtitles can be adjusted with the pitch setting.

They can be moved up and down, and and move them closer or further away. I don't know of they can be moved left or right...

Only vertical position can be adjusted? What about horizontal?

They can be moved up and down, and closer or further away. I don't know of they can be moved left or right... But I don't think so... You would have to move your head or eyes sideways, and that can produce double images.

In my case at least, if I put the subtitles too high or too low, I see them doubled. I suppose the same would happen if they are on the left or right. To see them well they have to be centered in your eyes.

I don't use autofocus, which I don't like. It applies a zoom that puzzles me...

If you use .ass you should be able to modify the default style to move the subtitles around in any direction.

I don't have a VR headset so I never used the player but from what I understand after a bit of reading, it should respect .ass styles.

I don't know that .ASS format... It is possible to convert from .SRT to .ASS ?

Yes, easily. .ass is pretty similar but it has advanced styling options. It's what fansubber use for fancy anime subtitles.


edit: Might be a good idea to say how, you just open the srt and save as .ass, it's that simple.

Thanks, I'll try it, mainly to adjust the position of the subtitles, like teiji_ishida.

In VR it's not the same for all movies, because in some the camera is farther away and in others closer, and the depth and angle where your eyes focus is different. Depending on the movies it is convenient to put the subtitles in different places.

It really depends on the software in VR - I use other players and the subtitles are readable.. not sure why problem herespher.. it's a pity because easier to navigate with it.. might try to convert to srt and see how it goes..

With .STR it should work well. It's what people are using with HereSphere.

I have read this at Fanza:

FANZA's VR video floor offers the largest adult VR and erotic video distribution service in Japan.
The number of VR video works we handle has exceeded 15 million sales, and we have the No. 1 lineup in Japan, from popular works to maniac fetish works!

I don't know is "15 millons sales" refers to the number of films sold, or 15 million yen... And I don't know if it's too much or too little... If they say so, I guess it's a good figure...

Always a good day when a Kawaii exclusive gets a VR release.

Not sure who thought it a good idea to use items that would have to be censored in editing.

Mitani Akari has also jumped back into the fray after a 2-year absence with DSVR-042. Massage themes aren't my style, but reassuring nonetheless. Looking forward to experiencing her older work, DSVR-031. Her fellow exclusive Matsumoto Ichika also has an enticing upcoming release, DSVR-041.

I assume the former, seeing as £80,000 isn't a noteworthy statistic to display given operating costs.

Most new releases from top studios seem to surpass 1,500 favourites on Fanza, notable actresses receiving way north of 5,000. Using that limited metric, the scene is still budding. Certain actresses have older videos with well over 30,000 favourites (e.g. Yua Mikami, Kawakita Saika, Ishikawa Mio). I wonder what percentage are paying customers. VR piracy certainly isn't as thorough as 2D, encouraging one to support financially.

Too much clothes in the Kawaii VR, no face-to-face missionary in DSVR titles, so no buy. I may not even download them.

Today URVRSP has releases URVRSP-312, a title with full nudes, 1 of 10... And it uses the stupid handheld camera, where everything moves, it's dizzying, and the image quality is pitiful... :dead:

Outside of Moodyz or SIVR, for my tastes the JAV VR landscape is completely bleak..... A desert.... :(

Yes, you are probably right, it refers to units sold. If so, 15 million JAV VR movies sold seems to me a great figure, considering that piracy will be 100 times higher....

I tried... to be honest it still looks comically small..
Well, I don't understand it. It's not normal to look tiny with two different players.... STR is just a plain text file with the dialogues, it does not define the size of the subtitles, that is set by the player. They should be displayed at a perfectly readable size... What headset do you have?

Maybe it's a problem with the configuration of the operating system you use, which displays small text by default?

Ah, that's a shame. Moodyz and S1 are very solid - looking forward to seeing what else Moodyz has in store for us fans.

Do disappointing releases hinder your enjoyment of your already curated collection? You all have collections far larger than mine, so you must have many gems that you revisit or haven't fully explored yet.

Yes, of course, my collection is my salvation in recent months. When I don't like anything new, I go back to old titles, some of them I haven't seen for years and I almost don't remember...

The problem is that in the old titles there is no face-to-face missionary either, it is a camera shot that started to be used only 2 or 3 years ago... It's the position I like the most to "finish", and you know what I mean... ;)

You are face-to-face with the girl, with the camera close, and if you look down, you see the whole body of the girl, including the penetration... For me this is the culmination of VR, the most real thing there is in porn, outside of reality.... This type of shot, in 3D, and real size.... WOW. You feel the girl, at the most climactic moment, when she is also enjoying the most.

Untitled 2.jpg

Sadly It's less and less used, because now the titles are less VR and more 3D TV, like in western VR (again copying the worst, like fake tits). Now there's a girl doing things a meter away while you're lying down, and you just watch. Like watching a TV. Even studios that used to make very immersive movies, like SOD VR, are losing it.

I've bought hundreds of VRs at A Festa and Fanza, but I've grown tired of so many clothes and so many fake VRs. If there is no full nudity in the face to face sex scenes, and face-to-face missionary, I don't buy it anymore. I don't even download it, because it doesn't turn me on.
