How to Cast Oculus Quest 2 to Roku TV? – Stream within Minutes

It’s fantastic to be able to broadcast your VR headset to another device. It makes using the headset more sociable and enables users to see exactly what is happening with it. As a result, many users are curious about how to stream their Oculus Quest 2 to Roku TV. It’s not as simple as you may assume, though. But don’t be concerned. The solutions are here.

Let’s get into detail:

You Need To Make Sure A Few Perquisites Before Casting Quest 2 To Roku TV.

Make sure Quest 2 and Chromecast are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

Only when your Chromecast and Oculus (Meta) Quest 2 devices are linked to the same network will you be able to cast content from Quest 2 to your Roku TV.

Nowadays, almost all routers feature radio transmissions that are referred to as “dual-band.” You can use this to enable the connection of equipment in your home to two distinct networks (either the 2.4 GHz or 5.0 GHz network).

Two independent networks allow flexibility and better speeds. The dual bands prevent communication problems and interferences while also enhancing overall stability.

When trying to cast your Quest 2 to a Roku TV, though, this can provide problems.

Casting won’t function, for instance, if your Quest 2 is linked to the 5.0 GHz network and your Chromecast is on the 2.4 GHz network!

Checking and confirming that your Chromecast and Quest 2 devices are on the exact same WiFi network simply takes a few seconds.

Verify your Chromecast’s Wi-Fi connection.

To check which Wi-Fi network your Chromecast is connected to:

1. Open up the Google Home app on your smartphone (NOT the Chromecast app)

Note: make sure your smartphone is also connected to the Wi-Fi network you want to connect your Chromecast to!

2. Then select your device from within the app
3. Tap on Settings(the gear icon) at the upper right-hand corner
4. Finally, select Wi-Fi

Your Chromecast’s “Network name” should be visible from here. You’ll need to hit “Forget” and reset your device if it isn’t linked to the right network.

Now, all we need to do is make sure the Oculus (Meta) Quest 2 is linked to the same network.

Verify the Wi-Fi network for Oculus (Meta) Quest 2.

To check which Wi-Fi network your Oculus (Meta) Quest 2 is connected to:

1. Select Apps on the home screen
2. Then go to Settings and Device
3. Finally, select Wi-Fi

Replace the Roku TV’s input with a Chromecast (HDMI)

Okay, now that we’ve established that your Chromecast and Oculus (Meta) Quest 2 are linked to the same Wi-Fi network, we want to choose the input that your Chromecast is plugged into.

To change the input of your Roku TV simply:

1. Go to HOME
2. ThenSETTINGS
3. Select TV INPUTS
4. And finally SET UP INPUT on the input you want to switch to.

The input is now added to your Roku home screen as a tile. All that’s left to do is return to the home screen and choose this tile to switch inputs!

However, you should rename the input to make it simpler to discover in the future before returning to HOME.

The next time you use your Roku, you just have to go to HOME > CHROMECAST in order to change the input to HDMI 2 (aka your Chromecast)!

Note: Okay, at this point your Chromecast, Oculus (Meta) Quest 2, and Roku TV are all connected to the same Wi-Fi network and your Chromecast is visible on the Roku TV.

3. Select your Roku device.
