i'm having a similar issue, but it's pervasive; both mouse and keyboard work for a few seconds, possibly up to a few minutes, but suddenly stop responding. it may be related to to the fact that i get a "laggy connection" popup about the time my input dies. untill recently, this would "only" result in rubberbanding input/streaming. now input just dies.

recent bug
just hop shadow fixing it

The only way to use shadow is through web right now

yea but i believe it’s still in beta
so it wouldn’t preform as good
plucky jasper
yea but i believe it’s still in beta
I found a solution
You need to go to advanced network settings
And choose prefer reliability over speed
At least it works for me

Yeah it’s not a solution it’s a workaround. Best to contact support about the issue.
plucky jasper
I will do that but for now ill just use this workaround
wise panther
yeah same issue with me its a widespread bug most likely
naive pollen
support not saying much just test connection, i think it’s a bug
naive pollen
anyone still having the issue?

I have encountered this issue today when trying to use Shadow through my Raspberry Pi. Good to know I wasn't alone. I was having to reconnect my mouse and then restart the stream every few seconds. I'd raised a ticket but should perhaps come to Discord first. The workaround suggested by @plucky jasper in swapping to TCP over UDP has made things work for what I needed access for (which right now isn't games).

still an issue? Tested today im personally experiencing it as well seems tcp is the only work around atm

Still an issue for me. TCP is working but UDP keeps locking up when I use my Pi. UDP is fine with my Ghost. After sending logs and clarifying the issue it's been with them since 23/04, no update so far.

Your not alone i was hoping to see a fix soon but guess tcp will have to to do for the time being.

UDP is best option, it requires a very stable connection and an ISP not lazily dropping UDP (often done by mobile carriers)
TCP just ensure each packets are transmitted and received but it has a cost
wise panther
Yeah I understand that, the thing is my home network is stable with a latency hovering around 20ms -30 on a bad day jitter is usually low as well. Worked for a while utilizing UDP and as far as I can tell nothing on my home network has changed unless maybe something on the back end from the isp. However if i tether at work with a hotspot on a mobile connection UDP protocol works fine and that connection def has some packet drops when i monitor it lol

that's exactly the point, most of those issues are network related, it could be either your network, ISP and if discord is burning with complains in all channels... Shadow/OVH :)
also, until you can provide full proof your network is stable and for home users it's likely never, internet is a living thing, here's my last 365 stats with my shadow DC, would you consider this stable ? :p
