Summary: ChimeraX bug report submission → Error restarting VR: openvr CompositorError_TextureUsesUnsupportedFormat

Same steps repeated does reproduce this bug. Using Vive Pro headset.

Reopening session 3 times causes volume model in session to flicker badly. Possibly the new frame trigger for VR redraw is happening for all 3 sessions?

Resolution: → fixed
Status: assigned → closed

Fixed.

Each VR session restore was registering an extra new frame handler because session restore is replacing the current SteamVR camera with a mono camera and then starting the SteamVR camera again, and when the session restore did this it did not call the close() method of the SteamVR camera. It was supposed to call the close() method. But that is super fragile. So I put in logic so the SteamVR camera checks if it is already started and does not register an extra new frame callback. Also I think it was reinitializing OpenVR which ultimately led to the weird error.
