Good day everyone,
I would like to know if there is any program, paid or free, which i can use along with Virtual Desktop to watch youtube while flying. Reason being that a lot of the tutorials have good information and i would like to replicate what i see ‘on the fly’ !
I came across OVRDrop, but i don’t know whether it works with Virtual Desktop and also to mention that i use the ms store version of msfs 2020.
Many thanks for your help.
Start your flight, click the menu button on your controller and open the browser.
Position as needed.
Thanks, but menu button from which software?
the quest menu, right hand menu button. where you can resume or quit VD. Just open a browser in there and move it so you can see
Thank you very much,i’ll try that 
Great tip… work’s likes a charm
For me, this is convenient but it really destroys my smoothness. Like there is a double image to everything (like a super consistent stutter showing each frame twice - really nasty) in MSFS when the game is not the focus.
I am sure I used to be able to float the browser ONLY in the cockpit, not with the rest of the VD toolbar thing, so it still had the sim in focus. Is there a way?
Anyway as an alternative, I have found a nice enough solution if anyone else might find it useful.
It will cost you about 20 Euro but that is not the only thing it is good for.

Once you have that, you can run an iOS or Android screen mirroring app and it displays in the tablet in the cockpit. You can resize the screen and move it anywhere you want.
CAVEAT: No sound is transmitted. I am still trying to find a way to also pipe the audio from my phone into the headphones at the same time as the game audio is using them (currently I just turn the volume of my headphones down and/or put them half off my ear and the volume on my phone on max and it’s fine), but it does not impact performance of the sim too much and is quite usable. Normally I want this when I am on a longer cruise flight so actually performance impact is zero in those sorts of flights, but low down near photogrammetry there are a few stutters I think - but I am not really needing to watch videos in those situations so all good! YMMV.
Try this for audio. Makes your PC a Bluetooth receiver. Connect your tablet to it! GitHub - ysc3839/AudioPlaybackConnector: Bluetooth audio playback (A2DP Sink) connector for Windows 10 2004+
