Steam / SteamApp not starting on stream #38

Closed TuNdRa-Plains closed 6 months ago

TuNdRa-Plains commented 6 months ago

Latest versions of Moondeck & Buddy, Host is Windows 11 Pro (22631.2861), AMD CPU, Nvidia GPU (No iGPU), Steam Deck is running 3.5.7

Stream launches as expected, but then sits at Desktop. If Steam isn't running; it isn't started by the Buddy. If it is running; no games launch. Stream then times out with "Stream failed to start" toast triggered on the Deck.

I've followed the troubleshooting steps in the Wiki for the failure to launch and the given command works without an issue - I can't see any obvious problems from the logs either.

Frankly; I'm stumped for what else to try, I can't see anything obvious in the logfiles pointing to the issue either; moondeckbuddy.log moondeck-runner.log moondeck-runner-moonlight.log

It seems that Sunshine is failing to start MoonDeckStream. Please paste the log from Sunshine and a screenshot of the MoonDeckStream app config.

Sunshine logs are below - It doesn't indicate launching anything other than [Desktop] when the stream is connected.

Sunshine Log.txt

On a whim; I deleted and recreated the MoonDeckStream entry in Sunshine, and despite the fact the two paths looked visibly identical; suddenly it worked repeatedly.

I can't explain why - as both entries had identical names and filepaths.

Only significant change to the setup that I can think of is I'd previously in-place upgraded Sunshine a few days back for another application to work with it, but I really wouldn't have expected that to cause the issue.

Oh well, we will never know, but at least it works now so I'm closing this :D
