Nov. 7 beta builds for Steam Frame added Room View during PC streaming and patched overlay, game-menu and resolution-change problems in Steam Link VR.
Room View requires both SteamOS 0.5.8 on the headset and SteamVR 2.19.2 on the PC, making beta mismatches a new failure point for users testing the feature.
SteamVR 2.19.1 had already raised the default encoded video size from 1152 to 1216, increasing bandwidth demands and making older September-era streaming advice less reliable.
Valve has not given a stable-release date for either build, underscoring that Steam Frame’s PC VR streaming stack is still evolving week to week after the headset’s Sept. 14 launch.
Steam Frame sells for $1,059 for 256GB and $1,299 for 1TB, while its Steam headset share was reported at 5.49%, suggesting early adoption despite software still being in beta.
