[BUG] Input lag up to 2 seconds.
Describe the bug
I suffer from a lot of input lag and slow downs when using this App on Arch Linux. I do have the intel-media-driver installed and it seems to work fine according to vainfo.
I use a wired connection and i have a 100 Mbit fiber connection.
To Reproduce
- Launch any game on an Arch Linux system (I used Blair Witch and Worms Reloaded)
- The first minute the game reacts acceptable.
- After the first few minutes i get a latency of pretty much 2 seconds on my all my input(Mouse/Keyboard).
- The mouse is wired, Keyboard is connected by bluetooth
It testing Geforce Now on Chrome OS flex on the same system and the performance difference is huge, it is pretty much a native gaming experience.
In the past i have used this Geforce Now app on Ubuntu(Snap version), i don't think i had these lag issues on Ubuntu at all.
I am pretty sure its Arch Linux related, i tried to set the driver to iHD manually to make sure it does find the VAAPI driver and when launching from the terminal it does show VAAPI related output.

I no longer have access to my old hardware and no longer is using geforce now. I remember, To workaround the issue I made a fork that would work on the old hardware.
