[XR] Windows XR Plugin Remoting cannot connect to HoloLens 1

Package: Windows XR Plugin

-

How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached "XRRemotingTest.zip" project
2. In Menu Toolbar select XR -> Windows XR Plugin Remoting
3. Choose Remote to Device as Emulation Mode
4. Input Hololens IP from Holographic Remoting -> Click on Connect button

Expected result: Windows XR Plugin Remoting connects to HoloLens
Actual result: After waiting for about 30 seconds connection fails with "Connection Failure Reason: None"

Reproducible with: 2019.4.5f1 (2.0.3), 2020.1.0f1 (3.2.0), 2020.2.0a19 (4.0.2)

Notes:
- Could not test the issue on Windows XR Plugin versions lower than 2.0.3 because scripting errors
- Could not reproduce with 2018.4 and lower, because Windows XR Plugin was not yet introduced in those versions

  1. Resolution Note:

    Windows XR Plugin uses the latest Microsoft binaries, which only support remoting for Hololens 2. We do not expect this to change. Please use the built-in VR packages if you require HL1 Remoting.

    Appears it is not a lack of support but which version of NuGet is used - 1.x.x is for HL1 and version 2.x.x is for HL2.

    Now it seems that some forward thinking engineers could add a dropdown to the new MRTK remoting/build plugin to select between HoloLens 1 or 2 and this would use the requisite NuGet version. Maybe Microsoft would work with you folks on that.
    Thanks

    Are you sure on this?

    Enklu Cloud supports remoting to HL1 and so does Visual Studio.
