The SteamVR Beta has been updated with the following changes.
Developer:
Always show both Enable and Disable DirectMode buttons in Settings regardless of what mode we think the headset is in.
Improved quality of supersampling (applications that render much higher resolution than the recommended resolution). Added a slider to the developer settings page to set supersampling amount between 0.8x-2.4x the recommended resolution.
Desktop Theater:
Added aspect fill option to remove or reduce letterbox effect
Widened virtual screen to better fit wider aspect ratios
Hide UI when not looking at it instead of remaining persistently visible
Fixed timing issue with left/right eyes occasionally being out of sync
