Hi all, I've been having some issues with my GPU and gpu-screen-recorder. I'm on a desktop with AMD gpu, RX 6650 XT. When I send pkill -SIGUSR1 -f gpu-screen-recorder to the replay mode process, it does save a recording, but then goes into some sort of stuck loop with the following message:

Mar 16 14:18:33 nixos-desktop gpu-screen-recorder[7083]: gsr error: gsr_kms_client_get_kms: failed to receive response
Mar 16 14:18:33 nixos-desktop gpu-screen-recorder[7083]: gsr error: failed to get kms, error: 4 (failed to receive)

It does that until it gets manually stopped and is unable to record anything. I've tried both running with and without boot.initrd.kernelModules = [ "amdgpu" ];. gpu-screen-recorder is running as a systemd service unit. gsr-kms-server is in /sw/bin. I'm kind of stuck on what to look at here

@kslad:unredacted.orgksladTypically I just do the mangohud/gamemoderun stuff listed in the post. I had initially wanted to globally set up gamescope and pass some args to it (--force-grab-cursor) but that appears to not be possible via this method. I guess I don't mind doing that per game also though, some games capture the cursor when they should, other games do not unless they're fullscreen02:07:20

In reply to @kslad:unredacted.org
I can't seem to find it anymore but I swear I remember seeing something the other day about setting default launch arguments for steam when setting up programs.steam. Don't see the option anywhere though. Did I dream that?
i have some for my steam but for what exactly? to use mangohud?

@niko:nyanbinary.rsnyanbinary 🏳️‍⚧️ cc: K900 00:29:22
@kslad:unredacted.orgksladYeah I was hoping I could add arbitrary args (i.e. gamescope --force-grab-cursor) but its just env variables it looks like02:19:44
@jerbear0:jerbear0game.cajerbear0yeahh, i wouldn't do that personally02:20:47
@jerbear0:jerbear0game.cajerbear0i change launch options depending on the game, i wouldn't want something global like that02:21:10
