Final Resolve export only · H.264 or H.265 · Any resolution

⚠️ Why this tool exists: DaVinci Resolve's stereo export produces MV-HEVC (Apple spatial video), which DeoVR misidentifies as VR180. Export from Resolve as a standard H.264 or H.265 MP4 with no stereo settings applied, then use this tool to inject the correct metadata as a fast remux — no quality loss.

⚠️ FFmpeg required: The generated script calls FFmpeg on your local machine. If not installed, the script will detect this and show install instructions. Easiest Windows option: download FFmpeg, copy ffmpeg.exe from its bin folder into the same folder as inject.bat — no system install needed.

② Choose Stereo Format

✅ Your Injection Scripts

FFmpeg Command

—

How to run:
Windows: Place inject.bat in the same folder as your MP4 → double-click it.
Mac/Linux: Place inject.sh in the same folder → chmod +x inject.sh && ./inject.sh

FFmpeg remuxes the file without re-encoding (uses -c copy). Completes in seconds regardless of file size. Output is saved alongside your input file. Upload the output directly to DeoVR, YouTube VR, or Meta Horizon.

Requirements: FFmpeg must be installed or placed in the same folder as the script.
Easiest (Windows): Download FFmpeg, extract, copy ffmpeg.exe from the bin folder into the same folder as inject.bat — no install needed.
Alternatively: ffmpeg.org · Mac: brew install ffmpeg · Windows: winget install ffmpeg · Linux: sudo apt install ffmpeg
