Hi everyone.
I've finally done it, I've updated the main default build on Steam :D If all goes well then it means I'll be updating the Oculus store soon as well.
It's been a very long process of getting the OpenXR SDK in and working. I hope that this will push forward to a new era of development where I can finally update multiple stores with confidence. I hope it also helps me to improve development on all other headsets including all the mobile ones.
I worked very hard not to introduce new bugs but the world isn't perfect so there is a chance that people might find issues. I hope I've fixed more than I've introduced so if you come across any let me know and I'll do my best to fix them as quickly as possible.
You can find a full steam news post here:

With a full description of what's changed, what's been added and what's been fixed. if you want a brief description though, here we go.
Full OpenXR support. (no more SteamVR or Oculus SDK)
Thumbnail view in explorer.
default presets for everyday use.
full surround support for videos with 5.1 audio (media foundation and WinRT only)/
Redesign of main UI (not major but buttons make more sense and now has presets and mute on it).
New, much more useful controller UI.
Full skinnable controllers for all headsets.
NDI support.
Loads of bug fixes.
Please have a look and I hope you all find the improvements worthwhile :)
Thanks for your continuing support. Without encouragement from the community I'd of stopped a long time ago.
All the best and happy watching
Phil
