An issue with the snap package. (cc @sisco311)

Meanwhile, you could try a non-snap version.

@rom1v thanks for the quick response. Any suggestions how to install without snap on Raspbian?

@rom1v Thank you, starting scrcpy then works but causes a very distorted image

Connection to same android device working well from another scrcpy installation.

If you record, is the result ok?

scrcpy --record file.mp4

In any case, see #55.

Try with another encoder or give a max size with -m so that the dimensions are multiple of 16.

Interesting, this suggests that the problem is in the decoder.

What are the dimensions, as printed in the console?

@sisco311 any ideas on how to fix this on the snap package?
