Quoting: taosecurityI have a 4070 Ti Super. Recording in Windows and exporting worked fine. On Linux, recording worked fine but export was broken. I look forward to testing this fixed version. Thank you Valve.

I haven't tested Steam Game Recording.
You could also use OBS Studio for this.
I've enabled v4l2loopback for streaming and it works flawlessly without affecting performance.

Quoting: Cyba.Cowboy

Quoting: Purple Library GuyFar as I can tell, right now the two are comparable... ...The real reason to switch to Wayland, though...

Thanks for that... As vague as it was, it answered the question in my eyes. 👍🏼

I haven't tried Wayland for gaming myself, but I've read that Xorg still gives the best gaming experience. I understand this correctly, most of what you do in Wayland will be under xWayland. Not all of the Xorg implementations have been done yet, so you might experience some glitches during gaming.

I think that this will go the other way when Wayland has become mature enough. This is a little bit in the future though.

I had to change back to Xorg after upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04. Screen sharing in Microsoft Teams does not work yet in Wayland.

It seems to me like GE Proton is based on Proton Experimental.
Does anybody know if GE Proton supports Battleye and EasyAnticheat?

Quoting: elmapulthat remind me of a thing...

pirating games on linux is harder, some times you have to do a bunch of steps on windows to crack an game, and the tutorials simply dont translate well to an linux enviroment.

i mean, i remember when i was trying to instal palib on linux, i dont remember if it had an linux version that i couldnt install or what, but installing on windows was already hard enough (you had to setup an enviroment variable, first time that i saw this term on an windows context), now imagine if i tried to install the windows version on linux back then...
google it "how to setup an windows variable on windows on linux"
or better "how to setup an windows enviroment variable on wine"

its an issue to specific and google might return 0 results, or tons of results for windows but only a few for linux if you dig deep enough, or maybe no one has ever tried.
now multiply that for every game you try to pirate.

regardless of what you think about piracy, this is an major issue that we have to solve if we want linux to become popular, most gamers dont purchase everything, many test drive the pirated version to know if its worth purchasing.

Are we still there.. With all the free games and software available?

Quoting: EhvisOnly games. There is a whole world out there that is not games and I don't see that world switching any time soon. If at all.

Maybe they will, but not in the way we wish for or think they will?
22 years ago I forecasted that Linux would take over the world. I thought it would on desktop. Instead it did everywhere else.

Let's just say that it might be that not only Steam finds its way to Linux on gaming...
Linux is a great choice for companies that wants to make something that just works.
