Setup: Technically I’m running Apollo but they’ve similar as I’m sure you know. When I connect to steam via the Moonlight app, my other two monitors at my PC turn off and just my TV, which is recognized as a third monitor, kicks in.
Anyway, I recently got a new 5080 and got excited through it in my system, updated drivers and started to play via Apollo on my TV. I wasn’t impressed with the performance and noticed that even though I had framed gen on it didn’t seem to be working great.
Fast-forward to assassin’s Creed shadows comes out, and I noticed that the frame generation option only says off and FSR when I connect via Apollo.
If I connect using steam link instead of moonlight, I see the option in assassin’s Creed , and all my other games that were running not great or running at a rock solid 60
TLDR; frame gen only works when I am not running a virtual adapter.
