Tubecast was one of the better third-party YouTube apps you could get on Windows, but now you can take that experience to the world of VR. Webrox, the developer behind Tubecast, has launched Tubecast VR, a player built just for watching immersive 360-degree YouTube videos and local media via a Windows Mixed Reality headset.
The app supports multiple 360-degree video format from YouTube at up to 8K resolution, as well as your own local media stored on a hard drive. The interface also looks pretty straightforward, offering quick player controls, video search, and navigation via a video overlay that you manipulate with a pair of Windows Mixed Reality motion controllers.
