Anyone know how the OG Ps4 is able to handle a 1440p 3d 180 video with such little, if any, jitters? Also. I tried a 4k, 3d 180 video with the console off, the media player wouldn't play it but littlstar did and with the temp in my room at 5 degrees celcius and the console rested to near that temp it was able to run it with very minor jitter for 5 minutes or so then slowly starting to get louder and with more and more frame and audio skips. Why is this possible, is it littlstar here that isn't locking the video for the OG ps4 and ...just how? Is there some cumputing power in the actual headset, is it using the TV in some way? Can it manage 2d 4k videos now? ...how?

I’d assume it’s the player which downsammples it, or simply downscales the resolution. PS4 can’t play 1440p or 4K videos obviously.

In 180 degree videos and 360 degree videos you only see a section of the total picture... that's the reason you can look around in these videos.

Therefore the video resolution has to be much higher than the native resolution of the headset to get optimal results. 4K or even 5K videos aren't overkill for a FullHD headset, the currently shown section is probably even below FullHD.
