For anyone revisiting this workflow in UE 5.7/5.8, I develop TrueODS, a Movie Render Queue plugin for Windows. We’ve implemented 360° omnidirectional stereo and VR180 rendering, with Lumen, correct stereo parallax around the full panorama, seamless volumetrics, HDR EXR output and resuming interrupted renders.
This 360° checkpoint sample was rendered at 8192 × 8192 in top/bottom stereo, with 8192 × 4096 per eye. The animation is a smaller preview alternating between the left and right eye.

Happy to answer questions about the output and workflow.
