In Gamemode, Sunshine server can't find any encoders.

I'm struggling to capture game mode with Sunshine to stream to my phone/tv. (steamlink tv app was discontinued)

The app/service runs in gamemode on boot but when trying to connect it comes up with the aforementioned error. Any tips on how to expose the gpu or even cpu as an encoder while under gamemode? it works fine in desktop mode.

This is my .service file, any advice is greatly appreciated.

[Unit]
Description=Sunshine self-hosted game stream host for Moonlight.
After=graphical-session.target

[Service]
ExecStart=flatpak run --command=dev.lizardbyte.app.Sunshine.sh dev.lizardbyte.app.Sunshine
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5s
#Flatpak Only
#ExecStop=flatpak kill --command=dev.lizardbyte.app.Sunshine
