To anyone having trouble with "only audio with a black screen" go to your PC steam and under the advanced remote play setting disable all "hardware encoding" options, it will fix it and work 100%.
Like others have said, it only plays the sound with a black screen (sometimes with mouse cursor). This method doesn't seem to work anymore. No amount of messing with the remote play settings has fixed it for me.
I've got good news. There was a guy that was able to get Android on the steam deck using something like a virtual machine so no dual booting or anything like that. And one of the games that currently works is honkai star rail. The name of the program is Waydroid.
I have attempted several times having this game ran through Remote Play via Steam and each time I tried to do so I was always having trouble with Window's UAC (It times out due to the notification and closing it causes the screen to be black). Didn't came to mind that running Steam as admin would fix that as I didn't wanted to disable UAC. Many thanks for the tutorial.
Welcome to the channel! Absolutely not, you are literally playing the game on your PC just mirroring it to the deck and using its controls. Think of it like using a different controller, but this one has a display too! Enjoy the game and no need to worry 🤜🤛
yeah, not sure what I am doing wrong I have been running Steam as admin when I stream it the game shows up on my computer but not the Steam deck. The steam deck is black and only shows the mouse pointer and I have no control over the mouse and music is coming from the steam deck. 😖
Hi, I've seen that happen to some people. Check this video out, apply the setting from it and see if it works: th-cam.com/video/Du1ZnkyxsPE/w-d-xo.html If not play around with the remote play settings on both devices. Good luck, let me know the results!
My game opens but I can't change the artwork for it, how do I do that. I got the banner and box and icon but the one in the recently played section does not show up.
Hi! Check out this video: th-cam.com/video/-EOWmL8L9FQ/w-d-xo.html at about 10:50 I explain how to change the artwork using the easiest method available!
Yes, as you are playing through your PC it needs to be on. For the time being this or installing Windows on your steam deck are the only options. The good news is that you will be using very little battery and your deck will last for up to 4-5 hours!
@@ZhakOfAllTrades yes, im actually experiencing the same issue. And the game is running fine on PC. im able to see everything im doing on my PC on my steam deck, except the game. When i move the mouse in the game on my PC, I can see it move on my steam deck, but the picture on my steam deck is just black.
@@leothunders9366 I wouldn't recommend using the Epic Games version. Check with the Remote Play settings and try adding the Epic Launcher as a Steam Game instead of the game itself and try again by starting the launcher then the game.
Hey! What do you mean by weird? Could you explain a little bit? Try this video: th-cam.com/video/Du1ZnkyxsPE/w-d-xo.html It will show you how to best set up the remote play settings. It's also my first video so be gentle please 😅
@@ZhakOfAllTrades I don't have Xbox controller support enabled so I'll try that. But I am running Steam in Admin mode and it hasn't made a difference yet.
Because in order to play this game on the steam deck you have to stream it from a computer. This is something I mention in the first 20 seconds of the video. Currently there is no other way to run this game except installing windows on your Deck.

So... You're saying it can't play on steam deck.
To anyone having trouble with "only audio with a black screen" go to your PC steam and under the advanced remote play setting disable all "hardware encoding" options, it will fix it and work 100%.
I have tried that but still Just a black Screen
Like others have said, it only plays the sound with a black screen (sometimes with mouse cursor). This method doesn't seem to work anymore. No amount of messing with the remote play settings has fixed it for me.
This was so helpful, thank you so much!
Just wanted to say thank you for this! Works perfectly with no issues. :)
i can hear sound from the stramdeck but the screen is black
Same, did you find a way to fix it?
Well I guess it's better than nothing...
Still a useless video lol
I've got good news. There was a guy that was able to get Android on the steam deck using something like a virtual machine so no dual booting or anything like that. And one of the games that currently works is honkai star rail. The name of the program is Waydroid.
They need this full support for Honkai. :( Come on Devs! :(
I started the game, but the game only started on my PC, while the screen on my Steam Deck only got black after it loaded.
I had this issue too
I fixed it! Disable hardware encoding in the steam settings!
I have attempted several times having this game ran through Remote Play via Steam and each time I tried to do so I was always having trouble with Window's UAC (It times out due to the notification and closing it causes the screen to be black).

Disable UAC prompts from control paner
Are you playing smoothly? I saw some comments saying that Anti-cheat could trigger and give BAN. How is that?
Welcome to the channel! Absolutely not, you are literally playing the game on your PC just mirroring it to the deck and using its controls. Think of it like using a different controller, but this one has a display too!
Enjoy the game and no need to worry 🤜🤛
@@ZhakOfAllTrades but i think the anti-cheat triggers because your skipping the honkai launcher?
@@maklenard899 Hi, no, you are not skipping it. You are starting the game normally. No need to worry 🤙
This helped a lot for my gaming laptop! Thanks!

@@ZhakOfAllTrades ok thanks will do
Wow thank you. I couldn't figure it out. What a lifesaver!
Mine says this game requires user intervention launch manually..
My game opens but I can't change the artwork for it, how do I do that. I got the banner and box and icon but the one in the recently played section does not show up.

There’s controller support natively within the game ? Nice
Yeah! As it is the pc version it seems to have native Xbox controller support which the deck emulates 🦥
Any idea why i cant see the game deck? I have audio and the cursor but the screen is black
So every time there is an update for HSR you have to do this whole process again? Or is it just a one time thing?
No, you are streaming it from your pc. Just update the game there and you are good to go!
when you make settings for a steam shortcut, they apply to the main shortcut as well
One question, if playing via stream, do you need to turn on your pc to play it using the deck?
Yes, as you are playing through your PC it needs to be on. For the time being this or installing Windows on your steam deck are the only options. The good news is that you will be using very little battery and your deck will last for up to 4-5 hours!
it works,thank you so much
Oh sweet, thanks for this! ❤
I fallow the exact steps but doesn't work for me, it only work from the PC but my steam deck is like a screen to watch only
Make sure Steam is running as administrator!
@ZhakOfAllTrades yeah it's, but still not working
So does audio not work using this method?
It does!
Hopefully someday Steam os can support Honkai Star Rail I'll be waiting Zhak for your video.
Thank you!
I believe with how fast Linux and Proton is evolving since the Steam Deck came out, It will be sooner rather than later!
That will never happen
noice thanks!
Screen starys black on the deck, ive disabled the uac, im running steam as a administrator. And i have super fast internet...idk wtd
Play around with remote play settings. Is the game running fine on the pc while the decks screen remains black?
@@ZhakOfAllTrades yes, im actually experiencing the same issue. And the game is running fine on PC. im able to see everything im doing on my PC on my steam deck, except the game. When i move the mouse in the game on my PC, I can see it move on my steam deck, but the picture on my steam deck is just black.
Does it matter that we got the game from epic games? I followed ur tutorial just fine
Zhak, I would love a solution to this asap, when you have one available please tell me.
@@leothunders9366 I wouldn't recommend using the Epic Games version.
Check with the Remote Play settings and try adding the Epic Launcher as a Steam Game instead of the game itself and try again by starting the launcher then the game.
I added the game file to steam as non steam game and launched it but I still don't get controller support
Hi! Make sure admin mode is enabled for the steam shortcut and xbox configuration support is enabled in controller settings in Steam. (On your PC)
STEAM SETTINGS CHANGED IN LATEST UPDATE..I CANT FIND YOUR SETTINGS..CAN YOU UPLOAD LATEST VERSION SETTINGS
Hi! I will look into it, thanks for the heads-up
I cant seem to understand this idk why but it doesnt work for me on the steam deck
Hi! I can help! What is the issue?
Thank you so much ( playing with nintendo switch controller) yeayyy ❤️
Is it normal the colours on a steam oled to be weird? Is there anything i can do to change this?
Hey! What do you mean by weird? Could you explain a little bit?
Try this video: th-cam.com/video/Du1ZnkyxsPE/w-d-xo.html
It will show you how to best set up the remote play settings.
It's also my first video so be gentle please 😅
@@ZhakOfAllTrades haha I appreciate it! Idk how to explain, on my steam deck honkai colours seem over saturated ? I'll check the video thanks ! :33
Will it works with Honkai impact 3rd too?
Honkai impact is on steam itself!!
i can't select my micro sd to install the game :( it doesn't appear the media folder and if i create a folder and copy the path it says invalid path
Is that card property formatted? Format it first in gaming mode settings
@@ZhakOfAllTrades yes, i have all my games installed there
yes it is. I was finally able to install honkai star rail on my micro sd but i have the same issue with honkai impact 3rd 😵
@@maiksnow I understand but this guide does not show you to install the game directly on the steam deck.
For some reason no matter what I do I can't get the game to recognize the steam Deck as a controller
Admin mode, the game recongizes it imedietely. Also make sure in controller settings you have enabled Xbox controller support
@@ZhakOfAllTrades I don't have Xbox controller support enabled so I'll try that. But I am running Steam in Admin mode and it hasn't made a difference yet.
@@northsaintpodcast54 Let me know the results, we can troubleshoot it together.
@@ZhakOfAllTrades enabled Xbox Controller Support and everything is working great
@@northsaintpodcast54 Super Glad that worked! Enjoy the game!
ty!
So basically it can run HSR but to get full controller support you must remote-play it from pc ?
Are you sure you watched the video? I explain the first 30 seconds that the game does not run on the Steam Deck currently.
Worked great, thanks!
You are welcome! Enjoy the game! Consider subscribing for more great tutorials and Deck content 🦥
The game won't open after I press play and I followed every step 😢 and why did u do most of your stuff on windows the video is abt the steam deck
Because in order to play this game on the steam deck you have to stream it from a computer.
This is something I mention in the first 20 seconds of the video.
Currently there is no other way to run this game except installing windows on your Deck.
Sadly it's against the tos for downloading honkai star rail and genshin on non supported devices bc it's modified files and launcher
This isn't as it's just using Steam's remote play to stream the game from your PC. There's no modification of HSR files lol
how to put star rail from pc to steam deck?
You don't, unless you install windows on the Deck this game as of right now will not work natively on Steam OS
MOBILE??
What donyou mean?
@@ZhakOfAllTrades is there a way to connect a controller to an ipad so u can play hsr?
