Arch-based I find is a good middle-ground. I use CachyOS and it’s more or less preconfigured, there’s a selection of packages preinstalled, but it’s still pretty baseline so you can build it up to whatever you want. There’s probably enough to get you going out-of-the-box if you’re new.
But yeah if you’re brand new to Linux there’s distros designed for that audience and you can always hop away to something when you’re ready or if your use-case changes.
I did exactly this but unfortunately it didn’t address the issue I was experiencing. I read the manual you linked and the support forum for Sunshine.
I posted about it in support forums and also got helpful advice about network latency, matching res and refresh rates to host, running Wayland only session, running game scope, using Apollo, etc.It unfortunately didn’t help.
I tried it on Bazzite (where it is preconfigured) and CachyOS and got the same result on both.
It suspect it’s the encoder but I think it could be a Wayland issue. I didn’t test X11 as that didn’t really suit my purposes.
I explored this issue pretty thoroughly and spent hours trying to solve it :(
I don’t know if it’s the encoder or Wayland being Wayland, but there stutters on the stream (but not the host screen) using VA-API.
Using the same host/receiver on windows (but a different encoder) there’s no issue so not sure it’s related to VRR or framerate matching as many suggest.
No output errors at all. It actually runs at high frame rates and high resolution. No matter what res or frame cap or bandwidth limit it will microstutter in predictable ways :(
I’ve tried Sunshine and Moonlight, on both Bazzite (pre-installed and configured) and CachyOS (pacman and AUR).
Yes I do have VA-API and no iGPU, so there wasn’t an easy fix.
I also see the same issue on Bazzite and CachyOS, and the same issue using Apollo and Sunshine. I’ve also deeply investigated network issues as the cause but I think that was a red herring.
Windows was fine out of the box and has specific AMD gpu codexes that the Linux build doesn’t have (I assume proprietary?) so that seems the most likely cause.
Dual booting Windows and it works fine there, and there’s definitely encoders not present in Linux that are in windows.
Open to suggestions, or are you just here to have strong opinions about things?
Sunshine worked brilliantly under Windows 11, but unfortunately on Linux it lacks the ability to encode the video stream using my RX 7800 XT and microstutters like crazy.
Mandatory voting creates more room for independent and minor parties to collect your vote, instead of just abstaining in the booth. The preference system tends to avoid outcomes that don’t reflect the electorate.
In Australia, far left and far right politicians and candidates can and do bloviate all they want, but ultimately mandatory voting pulls politics back to the centre.
imagine if the USA just bombed Ottawa, Canada and abducted Mark Carney, the PM of the country. Would you still just default to talking about the Epstein files?
Yeah and imagine if someone from Venezuela popped up to say “hey Fuck Trump, he invaded us too!” Is that a different thing they’re not allowed to talk about at that place and time?
Plenty of people getting hurt by the Trump admin and feeling angry about it. In the end we’re all just saying fuck Trump here, what’s the problem?
(Also arguing OP or I are too American or too somewhere else to understand your perspective is actually just demonstrating the behaviour you think you’re calling out).
So the time and place to call Trump a corrupt, criminal fascist isn’t now? We should keep our criticism of him to just curren the current scandal? What purpose does this type of moderation serve in an open discussion?
I would take your point of this was an article about Palestine and OP was being pro-israel, but at most it was a bit flippant.
I’m not in the US. What gave you that idea anyway?
Yeah but the point OP is making is that the issue should not be forgotten just because the news cycle is moving on. Everyone can be outraged against both at the same time right?
I go back and forth but GNOME has superior workflow IMO, just a few noticeable exceptions I use extensions for. Consistency of UI and app ecosystem feels a better fit for me, horses for courses though.
Or GNOME! GNOME is good too.
Motherfucker Trump. He’s so obviously implicated and covering. The very thing all those Magat’s claim to fight against: he’s that.
Really sad. I knew him as a regular DTNS contributor and always appreciated when he was on board for an episode. He’ll be missed.
Yeah there’s been censored versions released to get around ACB being dickheads. It’s silly.
Is a great example of what I’m talking about. This can be given an R18+ rating, ACB appear to be dragging feet on classification because they’re idiot bureaucrats who think it’s their job to apply their own moral standards.
There’s not really any video game ban legislated in Australia.
You might be thinking of an our stupid classification board who occasionally make weird, inconsistent decisions resulting games being prohibited for sale to certain markets or altogether.
For a long time this was because there was no R 18+ classification, forcing some games to be refused classification. This has been addressed, but the Australian Classification Board aren’t always applying it correctly so there’s reform needed of the ACB to fix this outright (it seems to be gradually improving maybe?)
Guns? That’s the other thing we’re famous for.
They’re ok with harassing others from a position of power, anonymously, and without having to justify themselves. It’s just that everyone else shouldn’t have the opportunity to harass them. Typical bro culture maga bullshit.
