How to globally disable all VR mirroring to monitor/display/TV?

[orangpelupa]

My PC is used by multiple person and its annoying that game screen mirroring will disturb other people thats currently using the PC (they will need to put the VR mirror on the background every time i switch games).

Maybe there's a registry key to edit, or an app that runs in the background to take care of that or something?

Theoretically I could make a macro with a list of all my vr games mirror window title and automatically alt tab every time any of them goes to the foreground... But I'm lazy

thank you

Pretty sure theres an option for it in steam vr and the oculus program
but if your playing a game then the game has focus and all input goes to it. if someone uses a program then that will steal focus from you
I have multiple monitors on the 1 p.c and I tried to create single pc multiplayer 2 copies of unreal tournament (1 renamed to copy.exe to prevent windows getting confused)
and while I could run 2 copies of UT (each on a separate monitor) and one controlled with kb+mouse and one controlled with a gamepad and both players could join the same game
only 1 game at a time could accept input

ps: dont you feel uncomfortable watching porn with other people there even if they dont know your watching it ?

that option only affect the mirroring from the driver/framework. But games made with unity or unreal have their own mirroring

all the vr games i've played works fine with its running on background. its just a hassle (or a refreshing surprise if its porn?) for other people thats currently using the PC because they will need to alt tab.
