Sunshine Failed to initialize video capture/encoding.
Recently moved to Bazzite from windows and trying to get sunshine and moonlight running but whenever I try and connect to sunshine on my Bazzite machine I get the following error.
“Failed to initialize video capture/encoding. Is a display connected and turned on?”
I have an RTX 3060
Have searched around online and in this channel but am a bit confused.

Solution
dont have an nvidia card but from my htpc with an intel card i had to do this
1. make sure if you have multiple monitors that sunshine is capturing the active monitor (relevant if you use gamemode which is limited to 1 monitor and a different monitor is the primary display in desktop mode)
when in gamemode, all other displays get deactivated meaning sunshine cannot capture them.
2. go into the sunshine config page and restart sunshine
