iPad Mini Custom Resolution Always Crashes
squk opened this issue · comments
READ ME FIRST!
If you're here because something basic is not working (like gamepad input, video, or similar), it's probably something specific to your setup, so make sure you've gone through the Troubleshooting Guide first: https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-docs/wiki/Troubleshooting
If you still have trouble with basic functionality after following the guide, join our Discord server where there are many other volunteers who can help (or direct you back here if it looks like a Moonlight bug after all). https://moonlight-stream.org/discord
Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
Using the 2266x1488 resolution of the new iPad mini, moonlight fails to connect to the host. Host desktop resolution is irrelevant.
I tried on the latest build from master and from the public version available on the app store.
Steps to reproduce
Any special steps that are required for the bug to appear.
Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem. If the issue is related to video glitching or poor quality, please include screenshots.
Affected games
List the games you've tried that exhibit the issue. To see if the issue is game-specific, try streaming Steam Big Picture with Moonlight and see if the issue persists there.
All
Other Moonlight clients
- Does the issue occur when using Moonlight on PC or Android?
No
Moonlight settings (please complete the following information) - Have any settings been adjusted from defaults?
- If so, which settings have been changed?
- Does the problem still occur after reverting settings back to default?
Gamepad-related issues (please complete if problem is gamepad-related)
- Do you have any gamepads connected to your host PC directly?
- If gamepad input is not working, does it work if you use Moonlight's on-screen controls?
- Does the problem still remain if you stream the desktop and use https://html5gamepad.com to test your gamepad?
- Instructions for streaming the desktop can be found here: https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-docs/wiki/Setup-Guide

Additional context
Anything else you think may be relevant to the issue or special about your specific setup.
Unfortunately, there is not really anything we can do for this. If you look at Nvidia's logs on your host in C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\NvStream, you will most likely see an NVENC encoder error caused by that particular resolution.
It is an encoder limitation on Nvidia's end.
I have no issues with this resolution pairing with my iPad mini; either with the host at a different resolution or at 2266 x1488 to avoid aspect ratio mismatch. Must be something with your environment? The main differences I see compared to my setup is that I'm running windows 11.
I'm running a 3080 as my GPU if that makes a difference.
Also working for me on a host with GTX 1070 running Sunshine on Windows 10; I think it also worked before I switched away from Geforce Experience – driver was installed using NVCleanstall.
The only problem I have seen is in Horizon - Zero Dawn when changing resolution from within the game, but this doesn't seem specific to 2266x1488 either and happens with any resolution, changing the resolution in the config file will still result in a working game at exactly this resolution - not sure if it's a general game bug or a game stream specific one, never checked locally adjusting resolution.
