Stream occasionally gets all garbled?

[jdh]

Hi all,

Sometimes during remote play, in the middle of a session the screen becomes all garbled up, like a whole bunch of flickering pixels in different colors. Disconnecting and reconnecting the stream resolves it, but usually it'll happen again with 15-30 minutes.

- Host: AMD 7800X3D, Nvidia 4080s, 32Gb
- Client: AMD 6800u (laptop), 680M (iGPU), 16Gb

Enabled HEVC and AV1.

make sure windows networks is set to private not public
disable any vpn
in router settings, make sure wifi isolation is disabled

and you can ping the client lan ip from the host
both should be 192.168.same.different

I can connect just fine. It's just that every 10 minutes or so the stream becomes a weird mess. Here's a link to a screenshot. Game is diablo 4:
