This is the first (beta) release of Wolvic using the Chromium backend. We have generalized the code so that it can be used with different web engines. This is a beta release so it isn't production ready yet. It should be mostly on par with the Gecko v1.6 release in terms of features with a few exceptions:

  • Extensions: pending to be implemented
  • Mozilla Accounts (former FirefoxSync) is not working yet due to the lack of extension support
  • Auto detection of immersive video format: this is done in gecko with a built-in extension, as there is no support for extensions this cannot be done

We're initially publishing this for 4 major platforms (more to come in the future depending on funding):

  • Meta : supporting Quest 2, Quest 3 and Quest Pro (although there is a codec issue in the Quest 3 causing a lot of flickering when playing videos)
  • Pico: supporting Neo 3, Pico 4 and Pico 4E
  • HVR: for Huawei VR Glasses
  • AOSP(x64): this is a generic build for AOSP x64 devices mainly designed for the Magic Leap 2
