Remote play at a higher resolution than that of the host PC screen
Hello,

I'm writing here because I'm having trouble with Steam Remote Play. I'd like to be able to use Remote Play between my desktop PC and my laptop, which I would connect to my TV to enjoy the best possible screen in my home.

My monitor has a resolution of 1440p 165Hz, while my TV can display 4K 120Hz. But when I try to play Cyberpunk this way, the game won't let me display a resolution higher than that of my monitor. I tried to create an AMD virtual resolution, but the software won't let me set a 4K resolution at 120Hz, only at 60Hz.

That's why I'm turning to you to see if you have a solution to offer me. Thank you !

on host
create the custom higher res (and refresh) in gpu control panel
and enable gpu scaling (so the host can display something while at the higher res)
steam -> settings -> remote play -> tick [change desktop res to match client]

on client, advanced stream settings (depends on client type)
set streaming res to its native

That's exactly the problem: I can't create the custom higher resolution and frame rate I want. AMD Adrenaline won't let me create a 4K resolution coupled with 120 Hz. I have no problem with 60 Hz, but it refuses to accept 120 Hz.

you might not be able to use a higher refresh rate than whats on the host

better to ask on amd gpu forums

its not a problem with steam/remote play if the gpu control panel wont let it change to unsupported res/refresh


worst case, use hdmi/dp splitter and fake display dongle plugged into th splitters port 1 that supports 4k120 (port 1 edid is passed to the pc, not the 2nd dusplay)
it when at a higher res or refresh than the display supports, it may say unsupported format or out of range/sync or something

for hdmi

yeah how old is the laptop??? because if its the linking device the HDMI port will be the biggest factor.....if you can not set 120hz at 4k on the laptop itself before trying to link you are dead in the water....

Thanks for your reply. In the end, I managed to create a fake 4K 120 fps screen on my host computer using Virtual Display Driver.
Then my problem was with remote play, as my laptop didn't have a graphics card powerful enough to decode a 4K 120 fps stream, but I got another one and now everything is fine. Thank you very much!
