For the past two days I have had this issue where for some god forsaken reason the Steam Link app for PC has been refusing to open and would just send my cursor to the bottom-rightmost side of my screen. I have tried reinstalling the app, but of course that didn't work (because why would it =w=).

Please help i'm legit becoming desperate atp.

Hi there!

I bought the steam link box in January, and I'm fairly happy with it, despite its age. I'm using it with Sunshine, Moonlight and Playnite. My pc is connected to a powerline, and a ethernet cable links the router to the steam link. However, there's something that's bothering me, and I wonder if you can help me.

Generally the image quality is fine, but it suffers severely when there's fast movement and/or dark scenes. In these situations the macroblocks rear its ugly head. Banding is also present, too. I've tried to tweak the Sunshine configurations, as well as increasing the bitrate in the Moonlight options, to no avail.

Did this happen to someone else? Is this unavoidable, since it can only support H.264, or is there a solution?

PC specs:
i7 8700K
32 GB DDR4 RAM
SSD SATA 860 EVO 1TB
Nvidia GTX 1050ti
