Duplicate of #2163

[d-air1]

Same issue on arch linux with the 550 driver.

[d-air1]

Well perhaps not the same issue. Resource usage says the gpu encoder is being used, but everything seems really slow after updating the driver. Nothing stands out to me in the logs, so perhaps my issue could be related to either the driver update or some other update. I will investigate further.

[d-air1]

I've narrowed it down to specifically being the headless capture on x11 that is slow. If I run sunshine with my monitors turned on then it works smoothly again.

[d-air1]

Here are the logs: I noticed something about nvfbc and cap_sys_admin:

[ReenigneArcher]

I'm converting this to a discussion. Bug reports are not for support.

[d-air1]

So this isn't a bug? It worked fine before driver 550, but now seems to be super laggy when running headless.

[ReenigneArcher]

So this isn't a bug?

Unlikely, based on your logs. You're using software encoding.

To get hardware encoding, you need to solve these things.

• [2024:02:28:08:05:26]: Error: Failed to gain CAP_SYS_ADMIN
• [2024:02:28:08:05:26]: Error: Environment variable WAYLAND_DISPLAY has not been defined

And you need to solve this if trying to us nvfbc.

• [2024:02:28:08:05:26]: Error: Failed to create session: This hardware does not support NvFBC

I'd suggest reading the headless guide in the docs.

https://docs.lizardbyte.dev/projects/sunshine/en/latest/about/guides/linux/headless_ssh.html

[d-air1]

I'll go through the guide, but I still wonder how a working setup stopped working after a driver update. Also I'm on X11 so the Wayland environment variable shouldn't matter right? I have a desktop environment running so X11 is running it's just that when I turn the monitors off it becomes laggy and while they are on it runs smooth. Personally I think I just need to rebuild the package.

[d-air1]

So far I have just downgraded the nvidia driver back to 545 and that indeed solves the issue. Clearly something wrong with 550.

This was a NVENC bug in 561.51 drivers on TU117-based cards.

Nvidia has released a hotfix driver to fix it: https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5525
