MacOs sonoma scrcpy 2.6.1 app starts but there is no window #5182

ravmiecznik · 2024-08-10T07:12:44Z

Environment

MacOs Sonoma 14.4.1
2.6.1
brew install scrcpy and manual build from sources
Onyx Boox
Android14

After installation of latest scrcpy 2.6.1 with brew install scrcpy I am running it from terminal: scrcpy, I've also tried few options like scrcpy -m1024. Every time I can see scrcpy icon appears in the dock, I can also switch to this app with CMD+TAB but there is no window of this app visible.
I tried to rebuild the same version manually according to: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/blob/master/doc/build.md but the result was the same. In this case I tried to run it from repo location with ./run x -m1024 the effect was the same.

After switching to tag 2.1 and building it again the application works just fine. It seems there is some bug somewhere between version 2.1 and 2.6.1 and it seems this is more related to application display because despite the screencast is not visible in the latest version all other options seems to work fine.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Could you please test the versions in between?

Even better, could you git bisect to find the exact commit which causes the problem for you?

Sure I can help ;)

    Enable workarounds by default

    Workarounds were disabled by default, and only enabled for some devices
    or under specific conditions.

    But it seems they are needed for more and more devices, so enable them
    by default. They could be disabled for specific devices if necessary in
    the future.

    In the past, these workarounds caused a (harmless) exception to be
    printed on some Xiaomi devices [1]. But this is not a problem anymore
    since commit b8c5853aa6ac9cfbe3fb4e46bf10978b3fa212e3.

    They also caused problems for audio on Vivo devices [2], but it seems
    this is not the case anymore [3].

    They might also impact an old Nvidia Shield [4], but hopefully this is
    fixed now.

Thank you very much 👍

Can you please post the whole scrcpy output (which contains your device model, manufacturer and brand) so that I add an exception for your device model?

Here, on master, there are two calls:

scrcpy/server/src/main/java/com/genymobile/scrcpy/Workarounds.java

Lines 64 to 65 in 44b3fd8

    
           fillAppInfo(); 
        
           fillAppContext();

fillAppInfo();
fillAppContext();

Could you please test and report which ones of the 3 changes work for you:

fillAppInfo();
// fillAppContext();  // remove

// fillAppInfo();  // remove
fillAppContext();

// fillAppInfo(); // remove
// fillAppContext();  // remove

?

ravmiecznik · 2024-08-10T12:20:30Z

THIS WORKS:

        // fillAppInfo();
        fillAppContext();

If I comment fillAppContext(); or both below error is visible

Please test branch issue5182 (0c95794).

If it works, I merged into dev.

👍 Thank you very much for your help.

Merged into dev.

Does it work at the native resolution with another encoder?

ravmiecznik · 2024-08-10T12:34:58Z

No problem, thank you for this great application !

ravmiecznik · 2024-08-10T13:12:03Z

For encoders test, so the right encoder will be the one which does not produce error ?:
