Moreover, you're using an old scrcpy-server with a new client.

THIS WILL REALLY HELP YOU (almost 90% of the time this might be the problem)

1. Download the latest version of ADB from the official Android developer website:

   [https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools]

2. Extract the contents of the ADB ZIP file to a directory on your system, such as ~/Tools.

3. Add the directory containing the ADB binary to your PATH environment variable by adding the following line to your .bashrc file:

     `export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/adb-file-just-downloaded-and-extracted/`
   

4. Reload the .bashrc file by running the following command: . ~/.bashrc

5. Try running scrcpy again and see if the error message goes away.

Try a non snap version. Snap packages its own adb.

Had same issue. This is what i did to get it to work as the snap package itself has it's own adb version (from what i believe) snap run scrcpy.adb connect x.x.x.x where x.x.x.x is the ip of interest snap run scrcpy.adb devices to ensure i am connected snap run scrcpy.scrcpy to connect
