Mouse speed is slow.

How do you speed up the mouse pointer in steam link? It's fast on the pc but slow on the steam link

[screaming.pc]

Mouse sensitivity is too slow on steam link and in the games it streams. Adjusting it in game does help some but that screws it up for when you play on just the PC and not steam link. Not to mention in some games you cannot adjust mouse sensitivity.

I don't know your level of expertise, so forgive me for asking, but could you be describing lag instead of mouse sensitivity? Like the mouse movement on the screen trails behind what you are actually doing with the mouse?

If so, please follow the instructions here:

If it was lag, my clicks would be delayed. They aren't delayed. I have to move my mouse 2 or 3 inches more side to side or up and down to get the mouse to move as much as it does when I'm on the computer.

I dont have a game mode on my TV but I played DOTA2 when I first hooked the steam link up and when i got to the edge fo the screen, the screen scrolled just like it does on the PC.. I was impressed.

It's the mouse peoblem I don't like.

I'm using a wired connection and logitec wireless mouse and keyboard.

Got it. That additional information was useful.

You've got an odd one. If you don't find a solution here, consider opening a support ticket against Steam Link:

I went into the mouse properties on the streaming pc and turned the pointer speed all the way to max and turned mouse precision off and it sped up a little bit.

I took my gaming mouse off the streaming pc and hooked it up to the steam link. It has a pointer speed adjustment on the mouse and that made it go even better, but the audio would crackle if I moved the mouse to fast.

I'm not going to buy a mouse that cost as much as the steam link to be able to have a fast mouse. I also shouldn't have to make my streaming pc mouse pointer so fast it is almost uncontrollable to make the steam link mouse move at normal speed.

There should be a pointer speed setting built into the steam link.

The fact that your audio crackles when you move the mouse tells me that you've got something pretty strange going on with your setup. (Additionally, you shouldn't need to do any special settings for a mouse that is operated through Steam Link.)

I would point you back to the support link that I provided earlier. My personal suspicion, based on this additional information, is that you may have driver issues with your PC. If you are able to, I would suggest updating the drivers for both your motherboard and, if there is a special driver for your mouse, to install/update that as well.

Be sure if using a TV that you don't have a "game" setting. My Vizio has the setting "Game Low Latency" which fixed my laggy mouse movement.

If it was a driver issue, the slow mouse wouldnt be a problem on the steam link connect screen.

Before I'm even connected to a pc.

That additional information, again, was useful.

It looks like you've nailed it. If you have the mouse problem while using the PC through Steam Link, and you have the mouse problem while inside the Steam Link's internal menus (not connected to a PC), then the compatibility problem is between the Steam Link hardware and the mouse.

Your most likely options are:

1] Replace the mouse (which you've already indicated that you don't want to do)
2] Return the Steam Link
3] Accept the issue
4] Open a ticket, see if they want to address your particular mouse, and wait to see if they fix

By the way, which mouse do you have?

I have the same issue with my MX518. I don't understand why there isn't an option to adjust mouse speed. I mean the steam link has to use some generic driver to detect a mouse and it should be possible to provide an option to adjust sensitivity. But maybe I am over-simplifying it. Gamepad and Keyboard seem to work fine and I do not notice lag.

EDIT: I did not notice audio crackling, only the slow sensitivity is a problem. And it feels like mouse acceleration is on, which would be a desirable option to switch on/off as well.

[WirrWicht]

Tested a wired usb mouse and had the audio crackling too...

I have the same problem with my steam link. My mouse is logitech performance MX.

Does screen size make a difference? I mean, 1080p is 1080p, right? So it shouldn't matter if it's streaming from a 32 inch to a 60 inch?

[BigScotch85]

Stop streaming, go to settings on steam link, click mouse settings, adjust mouse sensitivity. Using the razer turret and its nice

I know this is years later but I wanted to reply a solution for anyone stumbling across this thread for help.

In steam go to
>Steam
>Settings
>Controller
>Desktop Configuration (Controller and inputs appear)
>Click "Mouse"
-Sensitivity bar will be on the left

voila

Oh, I threw that thing away years ago and just moved my PC to my living room. Thanks anyway though.
