This would not be hosted/submitted to the Workshop. We're looking for a way to create a standalone/local VR Home with panels to launch standalone VR apps located on the local machine. Alternatively, is there a way to link the panel to launch apps indexed in the playlist tool? | This would not be hosted/submitted to the Workshop.

:There doesn't seem to be any interfaces for it. The only thing that seems to be possible is launching Steam applications by app ID using <code>VRUtils.LaunchSteamApp()</code> from Panorama. [[User:Rectus|Rectus]] ([[User talk:Rectus|talk]]) 08:41, 12 October 2017 (UTC) | |||

Is there a way to add a video frame to to these panels?
It's not possible to use any local video files as far as I know, although there might be undocumented features to do it. There is a YouTube player class however, take a look at panorama/layout/youtube_player.vxml_c and panorama/scripts/youtube_player.vjs_c inside \tools\steamvr_environments\game\steamtours\pak01_dir.vpk Rectus (talk) 19:26, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
