Good news for NVIDIA GPU owners on Linux, as the latest Steam Client Beta has a couple of nice sounding improvements for you.
This Beta was released yesterday, November 25th:
General
- Fixed game notes being reset sometimes when enabling/disabling spell checking.
- Fixed hardware video acceleration setting showing as enabled when GPU accelerated rendering in webviews is disabled (both must be enabled for hardware video acceleration to work).
Game Recording
- Fixed issue preventing audio capture by the steam overlay in some games on Windows.
- Fixed issue preventing Linux users with Nvidia cards from using their GPU to accelerate video encoding.
- Fixed issue causing some users to encounter failures while exporting video clips.
Remote Play
- Fixed issue preventing Linux users with Nvidia cards from using their GPU to accelerate video encoding.
From the changelog.
Great to see Valve continue to make improvements for Linux gamers. In case you missed it there was another nice Proton Experimental update just recently too!

Hmmm... this could explain why Remote Play was so choppy the other day. However this does not explain all the other bugs I seem to have with Remote Play, like audio still playing on the host and desktop resolution not changing. Every time I try it, I end up having some sort of problem and it's so frustrating. Even with a Windows host I had problems. I feel like i should not even bother any more and just run everything locally
