Download Your VR Videos in 4K, 5.7K & 8K — BuildVR's New Video Download Feature

Watching your VR video on BuildVR is only half the story. Now you can download the fully processed file — in the exact resolution and quality you need — straight from the watch page. Whether you're archiving footage, embedding it in another platform, or handing it off to a client, downloading is now just a few clicks away.

What's New

Every VR video on BuildVR can now be purchased and downloaded as a high-quality converted file. Instead of a single fixed export, you choose exactly what you need:

1. Format — equirectangular, HEVC, fisheye, fulldome, and more, depending on what's available for that video
2. Resolution — from 1K all the way up to 8K Full
3. Processing quality — IMRS 1 or IMRS 2 (more on this below)

Pricing is calculated automatically from the video's own duration, so you always see the exact cost before you buy — no surprises.

IMRS 1 vs. IMRS 2: Which Should You Pick?

BuildVR's conversion pipeline comes in two flavors:

1. IMRS 1 — standard quality with faster processing. Great when you need your download quickly and the source footage is already high resolution.
2. IMRS 2 — AI-upscaled for sharper detail, especially valuable if your source video is lower resolution and you want the converted file to look as crisp as possible. It takes longer to process, but the visual payoff is worth it for archival or premium use cases.

You'll see an estimated processing time for each option before you buy, so you always know what to expect.

How to Download a VR Video

1. Open any video on the Watch VR Videos page and click Download Now.
2. Pick a processing quality — IMRS 1 or IMRS 2.
3. Choose a format and resolution from the available options, each priced individually.
4. Click Buy Now. If you don't have enough credits, you'll be prompted to top up the exact amount needed — no more, no less.
5. Once processing completes, a Download File button appears. You can safely close the window while it's processing — you'll get an email the moment it's ready.

Already purchased a format before? BuildVR remembers it — reopening the same video and format takes you straight to the download link instead of charging you again.
