I configure everything according to your wiki, but as soon as I press “R” on my switch to start streaming, it causes my main monitor on my computer to go black, and then my entire computer locks up, causing me to have to hard reboot it.

Could you please provide the following:

What version of the program are you using? Does this happen with older versions?

Could you provide a screenshot or image of the console output when attempting to connect?

Thanks.

Sure thing!

I'm using the latest version of Switch Remote Play, v0.9.0, it did happen with older versions when I tried them.

Thanks for the details!

So I take it that the monitor went black and locked up in the 2nd picture?

The monitor going black is due to the resolution mode being changed by the program.

Your PC being locked up is a bit odd though. I'll need to make a debug build with extra logging statements in there to help pinpoint when the lockup is occurring.

Things to try till I have time to make a debug build with extra diagnostics:

To make sure ffmpeg runs fine on your machine:

  1. Please go to the directory where ffmpeg.exe is located
  2. hold shift and right-click in the folder to see the option to Open Powershell here
  3. Run the following command: ./ffmpeg.exe -f gdigrab -framerate 60 -i desktop gditest.mkv
  4. After abour 10 seconds or so stop the program by pressing ctrl+c
  5. There should be a video file called gditest.mkv. If it plays fine then ffmpeg is OK.

Sorry about the trouble, and thanks for being patient :)
