When i screenshare osu! in discord the game becomes really laggy with frequent framedrops and freezes. This started happening recently, and didn't use to happen before. In addition to this the screenshare is basically unwatchable as it freezes all the time.

i have tried screensharing other (more demanding) games as well and the issues only occur when screensharing osu. I've also tried to screenshare my entire screen (screen 1 option), which works until i open osu on the screen, then it starts lagging and freezing again. Neither stable nor cutting edge works.


Edit 1: I found at that if i disable fullscreen mode the issues are gone, but return the instant i enable it again.

For me personally I had to turn off any kind of screen overlays. But still seems to be on Discord's end tbh...

Ive tried to disable all overlays but dont seem to work. Maybe it could be an incompatibility issue between discord and osu due to settings seeing that it only lags when osu is in focus on the screenshare

current fix for this is turning on compatibility mode in game, that should make it run better on sharescreens and stops the freezing

i've seen that windows version 24h2 could be the problem

There is a setting called "Fullscreen mode" and unticking that solved the problem

for me the same happens but on lazer, my input suffers from this really hard
(i use DX 11 and fullscreen is on, tested with every renderer and still the same)

Reminder to disable Discord overlay after all these updates. It's enforced for probably? everyone again...
By the way, disable clipping in Discord settings too, see if that helps with your streaming issues (didn't help in my case but might help for you).
