New to the VR world but am very impressed with my new Reverb G2 which, I have now flown for about three hours low and slow around SoCal.

I've been working thru the setup details and the many recommendations for quality and performance - Many THANKS to all who have spent so much time making so many videos - I do appreciate them

Several folks have pointed out that mirroring the VR images to the desktop is costly in terms of FPS

I have clicked on the STOP PREVIEW in the mixed reality app and that button changes to two vertical lines - BUT the two images (one per eye?) still appear on my desktop along with in the HP goggles.

1) Is mirroring important in the HP G2 world?

2) If so - HOW do I disable mirroring?

i7-9700K / 8 GB evga RTX 3060Ti - the 32" 1080p monitor and the G2 are both plugged into display port connectors / I do have OpenXR installed and running as well as SteamVR

I've done several benchmarks in several VR games/sims and on my PC (different specs over the years) I've never noticed a massive loss of FPS or Performance with the Mirror, in most cases it's barely noticeable as all it is is a copy of the VR view, not another separate rendering. So I would've worry about it if I were you.

Personally I want a Single Eye Mirror so that Screenshots are easily maintained, the current Both Eyes Mirror is ugly and something none of my other Sims/Games do.
