Hello Mozilla Support, WebXR is not working anymore on FF (and Chrome) for me since some months. When I go to: https://mixedreality.mozilla.org/hello-webxr/, Firefox says now "VR not Supported".

I can enter VR with Chrome Canary (not with the normal Chrome) and Microsoft Edge, no problems. Firefox and Chrome did work for me till some months ago.

I just had a long dialog with the Oculus Support, they said they cannot solve my issue with Oculus Rift and Firefox.

Other people have the same problem: https://forums.oculusvr.com/t5/Support/Unable-to-connect-to-WebXR-on-Chrome-and-Firefox-with-Rift/td-p/946619

Is the Rift still supported?

Any help appreciated... best regards, Max

For Fx maybe try to set dom.vr.enabled to true in about:config. Chrome may have a similar flag. I don't have the hardware to test this. Hope that helps!

WARNING from the moderator team: Changing Firefox pref from the about:config page can sometimes break Firefox or cause strange behavior. You should only do this if you know what you're doing.
