Is "Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling" enabled on your machine?

sheaffe commented 1 year ago

I have "Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling" enabled.

mariotaku commented 1 year ago

Could you try turning it off? Some people encounter similar issues when they use moonlight. I'd like to see if it's the case.

sheaffe commented 1 year ago

This made no difference when I tried.

I've seen this a lot as well, although for me the screen goes black but audio continues and inputs are still working. Sometimes disconnecting the stream and reconnecting fixes it and sometimes I can fix it by vaguely knowing what buttons I'm pressing in the Steam menus and exiting the game or even sometimes just pressing the Guide button and opening the Steam menu will fix it.

even i have the issue the stream freezes after 5-10 minutes, the thing i do is reconnect it by going back and it works. but the problem is i have to do this everytime after 5-10 minutes, can you implement something like automatic reconnecting by clicking a button on remote, it takes only 5-6 seconds to to reconnect by going back on the homebrew menu, try to implement something which will do it automatic. thank you for this homebrew appreciate it <3

mariotaku commented 1 year ago

@trxshnumb Hi, the stream freezing is a bug and should be fixed later, so reconnect is not necessary.

joyas11 commented 1 year ago

its been a month bro, please atleast add a quick reconnect button

@trxshnumb I deleted my last reply because I was replying to a wrong repo. I know it feels like forever to wait, but there are multiple projects to update... The good news is I'm going to work on ihsplay next.

@trxshnumb Hi, multiple issues have been fixed though I need to verify. Would you like to try if v0.2.4 fixed video freezing issue?

joyas11 commented 1 year ago

Yes, I would.

@trxshnumb It should be available for download on GitHub or via homebrew channel.

joyas11 commented 1 year ago

In v0.2.4 the stream will connect then the video will immediately freeze. input and sound continue to funciton.

In v0.2.5 the stream will instantly disconnect (with the disconnected error message). If I attempt to connect again the app will crash and go to the home screen.

mariotaku commented 1 year ago

@sheaffe In actions page, there are snapshot in each run. Would you like to try some newest snapshots?

Snapshot in 8ffa6fb had same instant disconnect issue. Snapshot in 2a11aed was able to connect and stream for about 10-30 seconds before the video froze. Input and sound continued. Same as the original error in 0.2.2 release.

Micadurp commented 1 year ago

Jumping in on this one as I have this issue now.

Issue Summary

Start stream, looks great, after about 30 seconds the image will be frozen. Sound still goes through.

IHSplay Information

Version: 0.2.8 Audio Module: alsa Video Module: ndl-webos4 System: webOS 4.9.0 (HE_DTV_W19P_AFADABAA)

Computer Setup

Windows 10 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 2560 x 1440 main monitor I have multiple monitors

Extra info you might like

Checking if I am sending image data still

So I looked a little in wireshark to see if it seemed like I was still sending image data and I would absolutely say I do. When frozen I can move something around on the screen to increase the length and amount of packets sent. I assume it saves by sending less when less is changing on screen :)

Looking for some logs maybe

So I looked around into /var/log/ and saw 3 files that got updated when I connected. Tailed vcpu1 and watched on my lgtv when the image froze and marked where that was. The only difference I see in rtd_vcpu1.log is it stops logging:

[00001238.255856](VCPU1):06952ac5|[VDEC]` [33]:H264_DEC: bitstream underflow in S0 (fullness: S0=616924152 S1=0)

In rtd_logfile.log it stops logging

<4>\[00001238.745857\](S-KER:0)#IHSVideo #[00000000]: Alignment trap: IHSVideo (2786) PC=0x96b6ee60 Instr=0x448c3004 Address=0x28220243 FSR 0x811

and starts sending

acpu is unaffected, seems to be sound stuff

This is just snippets of the log that I believe were relevant. rtd_acpu1.log rtd_logfile.log rtd_vcpu1.log

mariotaku commented 1 year ago

@Micadurp Very interesting find! This indicates vdec encountered unrecovered errors. I'll try to find the reason.

GriwMF commented 1 year ago

same issue for me, Version: 0.2.8, System: webOS 4.3.0 (HE_DTV_W180_AFABABAA). Host is on Windows 10, 1080ti, 2560 x 1440. It just randomly freezes during the play. Often I still have sound and controller inputs are working, but video shows only 1 stuck frame. Switching to the other app and back to ihsplay then clicking start streaming works, but really annoying.

Giantarqui commented 11 months ago

Same problem for me...installed today ...image freeze but sound and input work

thereis commented 11 months ago

I've installed today and the same problem happened. The image freezes and then it disconnects...

Apalaco commented 10 months ago

i have the same issue with 0.2.8, i remember in previous version it worked fine, just somotimes it frozen but now it every time like 2 or 5 minutes. Srry for the bad english. I love te project!!

artem-vavilov commented 9 months ago

Please fix this bug first, it makes the app unusable

mariotaku commented 9 months ago

@artem-vavilov Hi, please consider using https://github.com/mariotaku/moonlight-tv instead. This project is not very active recently because of many reasons. Moonlight + Sunshine has even better performance, which is at least 1 frame faster than Steam Link.

DarthGigi commented 9 months ago

Any updates on this? Moonlight is not an option for AMD GPU's.

mariotaku commented 9 months ago

Sunshine will get you covered. It supports AMD/Intel GPU too.

klarkc commented 7 months ago

It's happening on my TV:

Version: 0.2.9 Audio Module: alsa Video Module: ndl-webos4 System: webOS 4.10.0 (HE_DTV_W19P_AFADATAA) Device: 49UM731C0SA Firmware: 05.40.10

I could'nt find the mentioned logs here, but here it what is in my dmesg after the freezing:

mariotaku commented 7 months ago

@klarkc looks like some crash. This info is super useful and I'll take a look when I get some time.

DarthGigi commented 3 months ago

Wondering if any progress has been made on this issue?

mariotaku commented 3 months ago

@DarthGigi Hi, sorry I don't have enough time to verify so can't make an update yet. Could you help me verify if moonlight works? If it works, then I can update ihsplay to use the same component.

DarthGigi commented 3 months ago

Hey @mariotaku,

Glad to help! I can confirm that if I use Sunshine with the LG moontlight app the streaming works fine.

mariotaku commented 3 months ago

@DarthGigi Thanks for the verification! I have pushed an update.

lukes312 commented 1 month ago

Hi, I'm still having this issue using the homebrew version. Has this issue been resolved? Both version numbers are the same.
