Hi,
I am currently trying to figure out why retroarch won’t work with steam link anymore.
I get a black TV with sound when starting retroarch.exe when the video driver “GL” is selected. It used to work flawlessly some weeks ago. I don’t understand what suddenly could be causing this problem. It worked with Vulkan but I need to run GL otherwise most of my library won’t work.
Any ideas?
What I already tried:
- using just a single monitor
- trying different steam in-home-streaming settings
- disabling shadowplay
- uninstalling geforce experience
- no fraps is installed
- selecting the correct display in retroarch video settings
- windowed/fullscreen mode
Temporary Solution for black screen with sound and no TV picture
- Start Retroarch through Steam Link (still GL)
- Go to PC switch the video driver to D3D and close Retroarch
- Start Retroarch again and switch back to GL and close Retroarch
- Start Retroarch again and there is TV picture
I don’t understand how this is possible though. It actually is quite ridiculous.
Solution today 22.04.2017
is uninstalling nvidia driver from device manager and let OS roll back to default driver.
This worked for me twice.
System: Windows 10 creators update Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 Ti.
