Nvidia Gamestream + RetroArch = Black Screen

[avisioncame]

My new story in the Gamestream Retroarch saga is as follows -

I finally got 2 Gamestream Controllers working.

Suddenly, Retroarch simply will not stream to my Nvidia Shield.

If Retroarch is windowed, I do get a picture, but sound plays on source PC.

If I go fullscreen, or windowed fullscreen, nothing on my Shield TV - everything plays on source PC.

This does not happen with any other emulators.

I have rolled back to my previous working RA build, and it is doing the same thing, when oddly it worked perfectly in the past. Did Nvidia do something in a recent update possibly?

That’s because you’re using Vulkan.

I don’t know what was going on. I restarted an things seems to be working now, but behaving oddly in general, this is on a clean install… I will report back if I keep running into trouble.

Another thing I should note, when using D3D, and opening the Retroarch menu, the Xrossbar style UI is gone, it has been replaced with plain yellow text against a transparent background (you see whatever game is playing in the background)

Yeah, the XMB menu doesn’t work with d3d, only RGUI.

I figured as much. But I wonder why my Gamestream will only work if I have D3D selected? It worked just fine before with OpenGl…
