I'm very new to Shadow and apologize if this questions been answered before, but i couldnt find it, But im on the power plan, and i can't quite get it to be smooth, im on 4k, and ive tried adjusting bandwith from 25-65 and nothing changes, its best around 40-50, but still jittery, same thing happens if i go down to 1440p and adjust bandwith. Either way, if im not in fullscreen it's smooth as butter and no input lag.

iiiiiiii dont think thats it, already done most of that

#

#

windowed mode is smooth cause it actually runs on your local, that's not Shadow that has the focus so you think it's smooth

#

run a game on your Shadow for 10 minutes, then share the statistics (4 graphs) from the quickmenu filtered on 10 mins

#

in fullscreen

Alright I’ll start up a game, thank you

Okay

#

#

That alright?

#

Most of that was the first cutscene of rdr2 if that matters

#

Idk how the hell you get rid of packet loss, probably another result of highish ping/distance

wifi ?
What's your datacenter location ? can find it in the launcher, help panel full bottom

Montreal Canada

#

I can do a wifi test for you on my desktop

#

#

That’s the desktop that shadow is streaming to

#

And it’s wired not wifi btw

wide bronze Feb 2, 2024, 9:15 PM

#

wired directly to your modem/router ?

fallen mica Feb 2, 2024, 9:15 PM

#

Yep

#

It’s not because I’m limiting shadow to 60 fps right? Usually I have GeForce now set to unlocked

wide bronze Feb 2, 2024, 9:16 PM

#

try to reboot your modem/router first

fallen mica Feb 2, 2024, 9:16 PM

#

And it runs flawless, at first shadow felt better then got worse

#

Alrighty

#

Eh it’s still not very smooth

wide bronze Feb 2, 2024, 9:29 PM

#

try to switch cable, switch port. If not, you will need to run another test to see if it is on your local end or ISP

#

I’m Think I’m just crap outta luck

#

Internet not good enough

#

Maybe if I streamed in 1080p but I only have a 4K tv so it’d look crap

#

you can also try in TCP mode in network settings from the quickmenu, but it will probably increase a bit latency

fallen mica Feb 2, 2024, 9:34 PM

#

Mm it’s already noticeable

#

I’m thinking it could be that finding the exact right bandwidth to select would be the key

#

Cause like rn, it’s not toooo bad, probably playable

#

I was curious and found out GFN’s CA east servers are also in Montreal, and I know this may not be an accurate comparison, I feel almost zero difference closing GFN and returning to my desktop

#

Compared to shadow, although I’ve gotten it to be relatively close, it’s usable for sure

#

Ok I actually think I got it as close as possible to native

#

32 mb/s bit rate on 1440p 120 fps
