Description

Describe the bug

I am successfully streaming a 1440P game computer on my Android TV with 1080P resolution, but the display is too blurry, but once in a while the connection is successful the picture is clear, what is the reason for this? Secondly does Moonlight support scaling to display high resolution video streams? This would make the low resolution device experience would be more perfect.

Steps to reproduce

Not.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the 1440p-to-1080p stream on the reported MiTv running Android 12, comparing the occasional clear connection with the blurry ones. Investigate the Android client’s stream scaling and resolution-selection behavior; done means the cause is identified and the low-resolution display behavior is corrected or clearly documented.
