how i play it in 360 degree vr using the oculus rift is i use the "virtual desktop" vr player, found on the top right tab in the virtual desktop settings.

download the video using jdownloader2, then drag and drop the video into the vr player where it says drag and drop and it will play in 360 degrees vr.
