## Common issues
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The application is very young, it is not unlikely that you encounter problems
|
|
|
|
|
with it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here are the common reported problems and their status.
|
|

|
### On Windows, my device is not detected
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The most common is your device not being detected by `adb`, or is unauthorized.
|
|
|
|
|
Check everything is ok by calling:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
adb devices
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Windows may need some [drivers] to detect your device.

### Mouse clicks do not work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On some devices, you may need to enable an option to allow [simulating input].

|
### Mouse clicks at wrong location
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On MacOS, with HiDPI support and multiple screens, input location are wrongly
|
|
|
|
|
scaled. See [issue 15].
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[issue 15]: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/issues/15
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A workaround is to build with HiDPI support disabled:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
meson x --buildtype release -Dhidpi_support=false
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, the video will be displayed at lower resolution.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### KWin compositor crashes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Plasma Desktop, compositor is disabled while _scrcpy_ is running.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As a workaround, [disable "Block compositing"][kwin].
