Hardware decoding not working on Wayland #22
Comments
Can you try this build? |
What I'm experiencing: The initial menu loads fine, and after clicking connect, the window disappears, I get the loglines about ffmpeg opening the libva library for hardware decoding, but no window actually appears. steamlink keeps running in the background, I have to manually send a kill signal to it to end the process.
(keeps running) After sending pkill to the steamlink process:
I get back to the main menu of the application. vainfo:
I'll try to update to Fedora 35 (currently running 34), maybe there's a new version of libva in that. I'll report back once I have results on F35. |
Can confirm that I experience the same thing on F35. I also tried updating Steam Link to the newest version and running that (branch=stable), I get the following output running that (the window also disappears after connecting):

Just tested with hardware rendering disabled -- this does not seem to be a hardware rendering issue, it looks like the streaming window appears on a different screen/display than the one I originally started Steam Link on / that has focus when starting streaming. However, I feel like there's a regression in how the streamed content is rendered -- it only works in fullscreen, and cannot be windowed any more -- if I try to window it, then the streamed video is no longer stretched across my display and is rendered in the original resolution, however, the rest of the display is black (and the video stream plays with the content aligned to the right side of the display, not centered). If I switch back to an earlier version of the flatpak (commit 10caec0bc183df7c2d9cf2bc165f0907ee1c58fe795383c983865ba55884c082), the stream can be windowed again without an issue. |
Hey folks,
Thanks for putting this Flatpak together. I've been trying to get hardware decoding working on my setup, without much success. I'm running Fedora 34 (although it shouldn't matter that much in case of a Flatpak-packaged software) on a laptop with an 8th gen Intel processor, running sway (Wayland-based DE) -- ordinarily, I have no issues with hardware decoding, both when using media players (say,
mpv
) or when playing videos in a browser, but I couldn't get it working with the Steam Link app.I also tried building a Flatpak of this PR: #20, which bumps the libva version up to 2.11.0 (the version of the lib that's installed on my system) without any luck. Any further troubleshooting/debugging suggestions are more than welcome!
You can find some (hopefully) helpful output down here:
