Changing resolution on start

[KatyPurry]

Hello,
Currently I'm using Multimonitor.exe with 2 .bat files to change my resolution before launching Sunshine. Mainly because my iPad is in 4:3 and my host screen is in 16:10.

It works but it forces me to spend time clicking on the bat files to change my resolutions. Is there a method with Sunshine to for example launch a bat file at Sunshine launch and execute the second one when I quit the program?

I know GameStream Launchpad but i'm on AMD (6800XT), so it's unavailable for me.

Thank you !

Thank you, I'll check (I'm not a developper at all), I will take the liberty of posting a new message if I don't understand everything.

You can configure it all in the web UI under "Applications". The documents just give extra info

Thank you,

In Desktop on the "do" field, I added the content of my bat file : start "" "C:\MultiMonitorTool.exe" /SetMonitors "Name=\\.\DISPLAY2 Width=1600 Height=1200"
And for "undo" : start "" "C:\MultiMonitorTool.exe" /SetMonitors "Name=\\.\DISPLAY2 Width=2560 Height=1440"

But it returns an error in the log : [2023:02:22:23:55:21]: Fatal: C:\Users\alexa\OneDrive\Documents\Sunshine\config/apps.json

After a few days of trying, I still can't get these commands to work. Do you have any idea how I can get out of this?

Maye this works as an example - works for me for steam - but you need the qres.exe program. (took it from a thread from skellycode.

{
    "env": {
        "PATH": "$(PATH);C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam"
    },
    "apps": [
        {
            "name": "Steam Big Picture",
            "output": "steam.txt",
            "detached": [
                "steam steam:\/\/open\/bigpicture"
            ],
            "image-path": "steam.png",
            "prep-cmd": [
                {
                    "do": "C:\\Users\\USERNAME\\QRes.exe \/x 3840 \/y 2160",
                    "undo": "C:\\Users\\USERNAME\\QRes.exe \/x 3440 \/y 1440"
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}

There's updated instructions in our nightly docs, they'll be in latest after next release. https://docs.lizardbyte.dev/projects/sunshine/en/nightly/about/app_examples.html
