    I've been trying to get an HTC Vive VR headset to work under SteamVR with Parallels Desktop 13.2.0 Pro, Windows 10, and macOS 10.12.6. SteamVR sees the Vive hardware and communicates with the controllers but says the headset's display can't be found. The headset is connected through a Thunderbolt/Mini DisplayPort cable. I have a Late 2015 iMac 5K with a 3.2 GHz i5 and 24 Gb RAM. I have 10 Gb RAM and 1 Gb video RAM allocated to the VM.

    I read on AppleInsider (http://appleinsider.com/articles/17...-for-mac-gains-apfs-hevc-vr-support-in-update) that 13.1 adds support for Vive VR, but I haven't found anything on the Parallels website to corroborate this.

    Is there something I can do to get the Vive working or is it not supported at this time?
