Game streaming (Sunshine/moonlight and Steam link) really slow on Bazzite
Hi,
I've recently installed Bazzite and am new to Linux. For the most everything works great. One thing I'm having issues with though is streaming games from my PC to my tv through AppleTV. I've tried using both Steam link and Sunshine/moonlight but the result is always the same, it's really slow to the point where it's a struggle just browsing through the Steam menu. I'm not having this issue when on windows.
Could it be a problem with the Graphics drivers? I'm running a RTX 3080 and from what I've understood Nvidia drivers and Wayland don't swing well together, which i've experienced and therefor use X11. So if that's the issue I guess I'll just have to wait for 555, or is there anything else causing it that is fixable?
Thanks!

Solution
I just wanted to update this since I solved the problem. I noticed that it's the big picture mode that is laggy and not the actual stream and since I almost only use steam for gaming I didn't catch that at first.
Anyway, I found a solution for it on reddit at the following link: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/11lhg40/comment/l2azm6n/
In short you need to go in to the settings and Disable "Disable GPU Blocklist" and enable "Enable GPU accelerated rendering in web views". I have no idea why it works and it doesn't seem to work for everyone, but I thought I'd update here if anyone else has similar issues and might be helped by it.
