Hey lovelies 🩷

Just in case this helps any Steam users, we found a solution to the mouse offset issue that occurs where:

  • You're streaming through Steam using Steam Link (app or device) or Remote Play.
  • Your host PC is Windows-based.
  • The application being streamed is running on a monitor with scaling >100%.

This issue can commonly affect users streaming to tablets or Steam Decks :SteamIconLogo:

We've already written about this previously here, here, here, and here, but we wanted to compile the key info in one place to help others. We have also written up a post on the Steam Community forums with all the details here, in the hopes that Steam devs will pick up on this and improve the Steam client for Windows.

Basically, it seems that the issue is caused by the Steam client for Windows being DPI unaware. DPI awareness was introduced in Windows 10 Version 1607 (aka Anniversary Update). You can read the technical details about these below:

The below website was what caused us to realise that Steam is DPI unaware and how to force DPI awareness for Steam and any applications running through it:

In short, you can force the Steam client and any relevant DPI-unaware applications to run as DPI aware by setting the default DPI awareness for a process.

e.g.,:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\steam.exe]
"DpiAwareness"="PerMonitorV2"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\streaming_client.exe]
"DpiAwareness"="PerMonitorV2"

You can do the same for any application you're streaming through Steam: just use the name of the exe.

e.g.,

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\rs2client.exe]
"DpiAwareness"="PerMonitorV2"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\RuneScape.exe]
"DpiAwareness"="PerMonitorV2"

Hope this helps some folks 🩷

The Cult of ShivSleepyCatten (@SleepyCatten@cultofshiv.wtf)Bit of a random question, but if anyone knows the answer to this, it'll probably be someone (or some folks) on fedi :FediverseSymbol: The problem involves using the Steam Link android app to stream a game from a Windows 11 host :SteamIconLogo: :Windows_11_Logo: The problem is that if the game is loaded on any monitor with scaling >100%, the mouse co-ordinates are offset 🫤 The issue can be worked around by reducing the scaling on any such monitor to 100%, but it's not a viable option for me sadly for accessibility and productivity reasons. We believe the issue could be resolved if Steam Link were to call the [SetThreadDpiAwarenessContext function](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-setthreaddpiawarenesscontext), which we've reported to Valve, but we're not expecting an acknowledgement or answer any time soon. Anyone been able to resolve the issue without reducing scaling to 100%? Pretty sure the issue can also occur with folks playing mouse-requiring games via Remote Play on a Steam Deck on a host with scaling set to >100%. #Steam #SteamLink #RemotePlay #Windows11 #AskFedi #SetThreadDpiAwarenessContext

The problem involves using the Steam Link android app to stream a game from a Windows 11 host :SteamIconLogo: :Windows_11_Logo:

Screen recording stressed the hardware a bit, so it is a bit chunky, but if I'm not recording, it works perfectly. All set in 30 minutes during lunch time :)

So hey this is a wild shot, but the fedi is full of people who are even weirder and nerdier than me, so...

Has anybody ever tried hacking a #joycon grip into a cable connector, wiimote+nunchuck style? I'm sure it can be done, but I don't have the #diy expertise to work it out :\

I really want to play my Steam games on the telly, but the #SteamLink app can't handle split L+R joycons the way that Steam itself can, and my sad old RSI arms can't handle non-split controllers :(

Boosts appreciated!

Aslında kısa bir video kaydı da aldım, ama VLC Player kayıtta pislik yapıyor ve wf-recorder ile aldığım kaydın istediğim kısmını kaydetmiyor!

O yüzden ana makinede yüklü Steam'de açılan oyunun sesinin Raspberry Pi 5 (8GB)'ten nasıl "çatırtı" yada "patırtı" şeklinde duyulduğunu paylaşamıyorum.

Fare imlecini ise iki makineden de kontrol edebiliyorum.

Bu Raspberry Pi 5'e kurulu Steam Link'ten Kontrolcü videosunu akışa yanıt olarak eklemeyi unutmuşum!

Öyle tek başına kalmasın.
Sonra arayınca bulamıyorum!

Steam Link'ten iyi haberler var

Masaüstü bilgisayarımdaki Steam ile nihâyet bağlantı kurdum

Steam'e yüklü oyunun fare imlecini Raspberry Pi 5 Ekranında görebildim!

Fakat maalesef henüz oyunları çalıştıramadım!

Bu Crysis1'in imleci!

Steam Link Masaüstü modunu seçsem de tam ekran açıldığı ve Waylandlı Raspberry Pi OS'ta hâlâ Print Screen tuşu çalışmadığı için Ekran Alıntısı da yapamadığımdan bâzı aşamaları gösteren fotoğrafları dışarıdan çektim!

Kontrolcü ayarlamayı gösteren çok kısa bir de video çektim, belki ayrıca paylaşırım.

Masaüstü Bilgisayarımı görüyorum, ama daha ileriye gidemiyorum!

Steam Link'in ileriki sürümlerinde çalışırsa hârika olacak

Şiddetli yağmur ve şimşekler yüzünden bilgisayarları kapatmak zorunda kalmıştım. (Geçmişte yakındaki sokaklardan birindeki direğin üzerindeki trafoya yıldırım düştüğü için PSU yanmıştı!)

Şimdi bağlantı linklerini inceliyorum da Steam Link Waylandlı Raspbery Pi 5'te henüz çalışmıyormuş!

Beklememiz gerekiyor!

Eğer Masaüstü Bilgisayarımdaki Steam'e ekli oyunları Raspberry Pi 5'e yüklü Steam Link üzerinden Raspberry Pi'ye bağlı 1080p IPS monitöde görerek "sorunsuz" oynayabilirsem bu müthiş bir şey olacak!

GOG'dan aldığım, Heroic Games üzerinden GOG hesabımla açıp indirdiğim ve Steam'e de eklediğim CRYSIS 1 'i Raspberry Pi 5'e yüklü Steam Link ile oynayabilmek! ツ

Masaüstü Bilgisayarımdan Steam Ayarlar, Remote Play'den "Steam Link'i Eşleştir" seçeneğine tıklıyorum.

Şanslıysam Raspberry Pi 5 üzerindeki Raspberry Pi OS'a kurulu Steam Link ekranında 4 haneli bir kod çıkıyor.

O kodu Masaüstü Bilgisayarımda açılan pencereye giriyorum.

Fakat işte o aşamada Raspberry Pi'ye yüklü Steam Link Masaüstü Bilgisayarımın Çevrimiçi olmadığını söylüyor!

Ne yaptıysam daha ileri gidemedim!

XBox Kontrolcüyü falan ayarladım. sorunsuz çalışıyor.

Maalesef bu gece olmadı!

Steam Link'in Masaüstü Bilgisayarım ile bağlantısı kopuyor!

Raspberry'de Steam Link'i açtığımda şanslıysam Msaüstü Bilgisayarım Çevrimiçi görünüyor, değilse bilgisayarımın İnternet bağlantısını kapatıp açınca Raspberry Pi üzerindeki Stean Link'te Çevrimiçi oluyor.

Masaüstü Bilgisayarımdan Steam Ayarlar , Remote Play'den "Steam Link'i Eşleştir" seçeneğine tıklıyorum........

..devamı yanıtta..

Bunun benim için ne demek olduğunu anlayabilir misiniz?

Masaüstü bilgisayarımın ve monitörümün görüntü çıkışı 10 yıla yakındır bozuk!

Raspberry Pi 5'i de o yüzden almıştım.

Şimdi aynı raspberry Pi 5 ile görüntü çıkışı bozuk LMDE6 Faye dağıtımı çalışan masaüstü bilgisayarım arasında Steam Link ile Ağ üzerinden bağlantı kurdum!

İlk denememde Steam Link çalışıyor.

Sanki bu özellik benim için gibi
