Helpful articles for Final Cut Pro for Mac, Final Cut Pro for iPad and Final Cut Camera:
I have a 360 VR video that works fine on my VR headset. But the video is without a sound, so I put the video in FinalCut Pro added sound, and exported it.
But now the VR headset doesn't play it as VR. Do you have any ideas?
I am using a Pico G2 4k headset
iMac 27″, macOS 12.7
Three questions:
1 - If you go into your project settings, is it set to "Video Format 360"?
2 - If you go to Export your file, what does the Projection Type field say under "Settings"?
3 - Have you tried right-clicking on your exported file, and choose to open it with Safari? In this article: Share 360° clips and projects in Final Cut Pro for Mac - Apple-support (SE) Apple recommends playing back 360 videos with Safari.
Hello Filip and thanks for the answer
1 - I have both adjusted the settings manually and used Automatic Settings
2 - The original file is with H.264
3 - Safari or other browsers can not open the file, both the original one and the exported one. It may be because it is an mp4 file.
I hope you will see some solution for me
Many thanks

Instead of exporting it as a "Format: Computer", can you export it as "Format: Video and Audio" and try to open that with Safari? Also try to upload the video to YouTube (you can have it as a privated video), and see if YouTube detects the 360 metadata.
Hi again
I did export it as "Video and Audio", but Safari still can´t open it.
YouTube did detect the 360 metadata, so I uploaded the previous (computer) file that I exported from FinalCut Pro and YouTube did detect it as well.
Sill the Pico headset doesn't detect the 360 metadata
Since YouTube detects the 360 metadata, that means that Final Cut Pro exported the 360 video file correctly. That's good news in a way, because that means the problem isn't on Final Cut Pro's end. But that also means that we here in the Final Cut Pro section of Apple Support Communities can't help you with this, since it's not a Final Cut Pro-related issue. Instead, you should post your question on the PICO Community help forum. I wish you good luck.
