Pixel 8 Pro Not Connecting at 120fps

Describe the bug

Hi, I've noticed an issue with Sunshine as the backend, on a Pixel 8 Pro with moonlight android as the frontend. Basically, if it's set to 90 or 120hz, it won't start the stream. Sometimes it will say to raise the concurrent stream limit, which i've set to values ranging from 60-64000. All with zero luck.

I checked the logs, and something I've noticed is when I connect via my ShieldTV Pro, i see different values for the requested frame rate

Pixel 8 Pro requesting 120fps:

[2023:11:22:20:17:22]: Info: Display refresh rate [239.97Hz]
[2023:11:22:20:17:22]: Info: Requested frame rate [60fps]

Android TV Requesting 120hz

[2023:11:22:20:33:14]: Info: Display refresh rate [239.97Hz]
[2023:11:22:20:33:14]: Info: Requested frame rate [120fps]

I did some googling, and found this https://www.reddit.com/r/cloudygamer/comments/17ivq8n/moonlight_host_returned_error/

I don't have any other Android 14 devices to test if it's an Android 14 issue with 120hz screens, but I did google, and find people with other Android 14 devices talking about how good it works for them, so, anecdotally it might not be the OS version, but something specific to the Pixel 8.

Steps to reproduce

Select 120fps on a Pixel 8 Pro, try and connect to your PC, it fails. Select 60fps on the same device, and connect again, it succeeds. Select 120fps on a different device, and it succeeds.

This may be related to #1230. Have you tried to set the Android Display settings to "Full resolution"?

@Pevtrick Excellent catch, yes, I updated the screen resolution to Full Resolution, and it resolved the issue!
