Describe the Bug

I’m experiencing an issue with Sunshine on Wayland (Arch Linux + Hyprland). When using NVENC, encoding fails and Sunshine falls back through Vulkan (not implemented for wlroots), VAAPI, and finally software encoding (libx264), which works correctly.

Error: Couldn't scale frame: Invalid argument

Sunshine version:
2026.516.143833-1

Expected Behavior

When starting a stream from another PC, the host should use NVENC for video encoding.
