binkw32.dll error in Bioshock Infinite only in remote play
Some time last month, after weeks of working without issue, any attempt to stream Bioshock Infinite to my Mac from my PC fails with the below fatal error. binkw32.dll exists at this location and the error does not occur when playing the game locally on the PC. Anyone experiencing this and/or have ideas? Also, if this is a bug with Steam itself, where is the best place to file a said bug?

Host:
Windows 11 Pro 23H2

64 GB RAM
NVidia GeForce RTX 3060

Client:
macOS 15.3.2
M1 MacBook Pro
32 GB RAM

Things I have tried:

  • Numerous number of integrity checks.
  • Reinstalling the game
  • Reinstalling Steam on both the Mac and PC
  • Running
    sfc scannow
  • Running
    dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
  • Running Steam as administrator
  • Running the game as administrator
  • Updating graphics drivers
