Hi I’m new to 3D slicer and VR. I was trying to show a 3d segmented brain model using the SlicerVirtualReality extension with openXR backend on my HoloLens2 using holographic remoting player. it says “receiving…” for an undefined amount of time. Am I doing something wrong or this takes a long time? Would appreciate any guidance 🙂

It should connect within a few seconds. Please use the very latest Slicer Preview Release and follow [these setup instructions](https://github.com/KitwareMedical/SlicerVirtualReality?tab=readme-ov-file#setup). If you still experience issues then provide detailed information about your hardware and software configuration and how you have set up your system.

I tried the latest Slicer Preview Release and it worked there but I tried to segment brain using Slicer Parcellation on Preview Release it made the 3Dslicer unresponsive and crashes. Can i now show volume rendered brain on the hololens2 ?
