White screen when streaming desmume-0.9.13 on Discord (Windows 11)

I am trying to stream Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia to my friends on Discord but the screens go fully white when I start streaming.

GPU: RTX 3070 Laptop
Display Method: OpenGL

I also made sure it is running off my GPU via the Nvidia Control Panel, I don't understand what is causing this issue.

Re: White screen when streaming desmume-0.9.13 on Discord (Windows 11)

The issue is caused by bad discord code and/or bad microsoft code and/or bad GPU drivers. Desmume's opengl mode works in a perfectly normal way. You were smart to check the display method and change it from directdraw (since most of microsoft's bad code is there). But ultimately this is discord's responsibility. They started as game stream/chat, didnt they? If they have one job to do, it's to stream a 3d window. Unfortunately this isn't our business and there's nothing we can do about it. All I can suggest is fiddling with your GPU drivers (they can break anything) and contact discord for support.
