Streaming games using Sunshine (the gamestream implementation) now works a lot better on nVidia/wayland
When I try to use NvFBC inside hyprland (a wlroots-based wayland compositor), it seems like it looks for an X server: [2024:01:24:13:59:45]: Error: Failed to create session: Version mismatch betwee...
Yes, yes, I know, buy AMD, but I already have nVvdia to use CUDA, but this new patch on the nightly branch (on arch, you can use sunshine-git but with my patch here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sunshine-git) finally makes it so that I don't have to "dual boot" into X11 to get game streaming at full performance.
Prior to this, wayland-based streamers had to make a round-trip through CPU ram, and now it stays within GPU ram and thus we can stream 4k on nvidia/Wayland!
I've gone crazy several times trying to get this to work on my Arch + AMD rig. I wish it was easier.
Sunshine should be seamless?
IDK, I can't thank them enough for what they have done already. I'm just wishing it would be easier so it would be come more widely adopted.
I mean:
- Why doesn't every open source game launcher include it?
- Why distros don't adopt this 1st class remote desktop tech?
- Why most users don't know it even exists?
- Why hasn't AMD baked it in their Windows drivers?
- Why hasn't it been included along the MESA drivers?

I'm getting the error people posted on the AUR about this. How can i implement your patch? I never modified some AUR package
I use
yayso I just go to~/.cache/yay/sunshine-gitafter the failed build and change the PKGBUILD, then usemakepkg -sito build and install it.You can use the
patchcommand to apply the diff.hm interesting. I also use yay but i don't get a yay folder in my .cache dir after the failed installation
