my issue is specifcally: vrlink: AMF SetProperty(AMF_VIDEO_ENCODER_HEVC_TARGET_BITRATE) ( 235750736 ) failed [ AMF_OUT_OF_RANGE ]

if you use an amd gpu, you need to lower the bitrate below 100 otherwise steamvr spams logs with amf out of range errors. thanks encoders!

how do you change the bit rate

I'm having the same issue: error code 200. I can see the SteamVR home environment on my PC monitor and it's moving with the headset, so tracking seems to work. All that remains is to get the video signal to the Quest 2. I'm using an AMD GPU, so as suggested I tried lowering the bitrate in the Steam Link tab of the SteamVR settings, but that causes SteamVR to crash almost immediately. Both my Steam and SteamVR are non-beta versions.

Legitimate question, how do you change the bitrate? Is it in steamVR? Is it in remote play? Is it in the steam link app somewhere I can't find? Is it a registry change? Do I gotta edit a config or INI file?

It's a menu option. In VR Settings on the Steam panel, under the VR settings, there will be a "Steam Link" option and it's in there.

Thank you! I can finally get it to work. I was so tired of trying to figure it out on my own.

Could you elaborate a bit? I have no idea where any of those items are listed at all.

The menu is in steamVR, The little rectangle that pop up after you launch steamVR.
click the upper left 3 bars and the menu will pop up. then choose setting

if there is no steamlink tab for you to choose, that's because you havn't connect the quest with steamVR yet. Go connect it first by launching steamlink in your headset. try to connect once to activate the menu. Dont worry if it fail.
Actually, they should have just greyed out the other tabs, not make it dissappear from the setting menu.

- from the menu choose steam link tab
- set Target Bandwidth to mannual
- adjust bitrate to 100 Mbps.
- Exit steam and steamVR then relaunch them again.

Next, after adjusting the Bitrate. launch steamlink in your haead set and connect it to your computer. This time it should work.

I wonder why dont they make this bitrate default. it was not even in the trouble shooting guide. and let people frustrated for 2-3 days and try to figure it out by themself.

Edit: I try to play ALYX. sometime it just disconnect from SteamVR and I have to lower the bitrate to 80Mbps to get it run smoothly. and yeah I'm on Wifi6 5Ghz.... may be we should stick to Virtual Desktop.
