Good evening.

Nvidia driver version: 550.144.03
GPU Model: GTX 1650
OS: Debian 12 (Proxmox 8.3 Kernel 6.11)
Not working here either and I'm 100% willing to test and report back with appropriate outputs.
Thank you and have a nice day.

@ACheshirov Were you ever given something to test? I only ask because normally these issues are addressed within a weeks time and this is going on 3 weeks.
Thx and have a nice day.

As far as I’ve read, the person maintaining the project no longer has time to work on it.

I mainly use NvFBC through this patch, specifically for Sunshine/Moonlight. But from what I understand, the patch is no longer needed because Nvidia has decided to simply unlock NvFBC support for their consumer GPUs.

So, I’m able to use NvFBC in Sunshine even without this patch.

NvFBC

That's interesting news, thx for the info. Does this incorporate unlocking NvENC also? I only ask because one of my machines running 565.57.01 needed to be patched just 2 hours ago because it was only encoding on 2 streams at the same time, once it was patched it started taking on more simultaneous encodes.
Or, is there a certain driver revision where it starts? i.e. 570.86.15
Thx again and have a nice night.

@Nostradamus1973 according to Reddit you'll have to force enable the option then it works even on an unpatched driver: https://www.reddit.com/r/MoonlightStreaming/comments/1grzob0/no_more_patching_nvidia_drivers_for_nvfbc_needed/

On any sunshine version from 2025.
