Casting from headset wont work

Londos a year ago | 4 comments

Hey. So when I try to cast to my Sidequest app (on PC) it shows me this error " {"err":{"killed":false,"code":1,"signal":null,"cmd":""C:\Users\Londo\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy-win64-v2.0\scrcpy.exe" --crop 1600:900:2017:510 -b 8000000 --max-fps 0 --max-size 0 -n --window-title "SideQuest Stream" -s QUEST ID HERE"},"stderr":"ERROR: CreateProcessW() error 5\r\nERROR: Failed to execute: [C:\Users\Londo\Downloads\platform-tools-latest-windows\platform-tools], [start-server]\r\nERROR: Could not execute "adb start-server"\r\nERROR: Could not start adb daemon\r\nERROR: Server connection failed\r\n","command":""C:\Users\Londo\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy-win64-v2.0\scrcpy.exe" --crop 1600:900:2017:510 -b 8000000 --max-fps 0 --max-size 0 -n --window-title "SideQuest Stream" -s QUEST ID HERE"} ". (PS i've removed my meta quest 2 id and replaced it with QUEST ID HERE). I'm on a Meta quest 2 running v65 (PTC).

Thanks, Londos.

Failed to execute: [C:\Users\Londo\Downloads\platform-tools-latest-windows\platform-tools], [start-server]\r\nERROR: Could not execute "adb start-server"\r\nERROR: Could not start adb daemon\r\nERROR: Server connection

It looks to me like you have a copy of the platform tools in your downloads, and scrcpy is trying to run that. I recommend you delete that platform tools folder and allow scrcpy to run its own bundled version.

Yeah I've found that in my downloads and deleted it, found out I had an update so I uninstalled it (for a clean install), installed the latest version and it still has the same error after deleting the file. I've not tried restarting windows, so I'll do that now. After that I'll make an update

Thanks, Londos.

EDIT: Didn't work :( still same error :(

Hi,

Be sure to see a green light in the top left corner before you start, and disable the proximity sensor.

Let me know how you get on.
