Unless users had significant bandwidth and a reliable WiFi connection, the majority of games experienced too much input lag to be playable. Even when other controllers could be used in lieu of the original, the Steam Link just did not perform as well as expected. streaming same games from windows 10 host with same intel gpu + Nvidia 1070ti to same devices works fine without any problems.But problems arose from the ill-fated Steam Controller, a device that just didn’t quite fit the needs of the user base. So, with nvidia display always 0.00, with intel - with some non-zero numbers Slow frame rate: game 0.00 capture 2.75 convert 0.00 encode 5.88 network 34.58 decode 1.44 display 1.25 (network) Slow frame rate: game 0.00 capture 17.65 convert 0.32 encode 7.58 network 150.54 decode 1.72 display 0.00 (network) With disable hardware encoding output the same, like:Ĭapture method set to Desktop OpenGL NV12 + libx264 main (3 threads)īut there is a difference (i don't understood, is it important): Video successfully stream from the host computer.ġ) low resolution: from 2K on host to FullHD - no changeĢ) disable all hardware encoding/decoding - no change If i click mouse on invisible screen this actions applied on host (so mouse actions works)īig Picture mode works on host, games started on intel gpu with slow performance Video does not stream from the host computer (though sound and mouse pointer does). Launch Steam on host computer, enter Big Picture mode withĮverything works fine on host, Big Picture mode, games started and playing fast with nvidia gpu on ubuntu desktop locally Ubuntu 20.04 with Integrated intel graphics (HD630) + Nvidia 1070Ti (driver 470.74). Steam Big Picture mode video streams to the Steam Link Client. Video does not stream from the host computer (though sound does). Launch Steam on host computer, enter Big Picture mode I cannot change the client hardware decoding option in the Steam Link app on my phone it is set to Enabled and the option to change it is grayed out. This is the same using Steam Client Beta or non-beta (same issue occurs either way), hardware encoding on or off from host computer.

When Steam is active, though, I cannot even see the cursor. I can't see anything else from my host computer, just the cursor. If I focus a different program (Firefox, for example) on the host computer, I can see my mouse cursor on my phone and move it about. Sound and controller work (I can control the host device with a controller connected to my phone, and hear the resultant noises through my phone).
