Japanese Windows User (Double Byte) cannot evoke scrcpy

[urashita]

I am using SideQuest and scrcpy and found that I can not evoke scrcpy in some cases.

When I use single byte user (urashita) in Windows, SideQuest is installed here
C:\Users\urashita\AppData\Local\Programs\SideQuest

When I first launched SideQuest, scrcpy was downloaded and installed here
C:\Users\urashita\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy

Then I could always evoke scrcpy from SideQuest.

But when I use this user "1階のPC" in Windows, SideQuest is installed here
C:\Users\1階のPC\AppData\Local\Programs\SideQuest

When I first launched SideQuest, scrcpy was downloaded and installed here
C:\Users\1階のPC\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy

Then I could NEVER evoke scrcpy from SideQuest.

I think there may be a reason SideQuest cannot launch scrcpy.
The most possible cause is that scrcpyBinaryPath needs double quote?

I am reading SideQuest source code and skeptical around here.
SideQuest/desktop-app/src/app/app.service.ts
line 400: this.scrcpyBinaryPath = downloadPath;

I am willing to test and check it in my PC if there were a possible fixed code.

Hi there!

I got to testing this today and after I created and setup a new user on my PC with the name 1階の I was indeed able to launch scrcpy without any problem. I am unsure of how else I can test this. Below was the scrcpy command that was output on the SideQuest console just before it opened.

"C:\Users\1階の\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy\scrcpy.exe" --crop 1280:720:1500:350 -b 8000000 --max-fps 0 --max-size 0 -n --window-title "SideQuest Stream" -s 1WMHH814MP0383

And here is it working:

I said "1階のPC", NOT "1階の".

What is going on about this issue?

Hi there, it seems to me the double byte characters are "1階の" and not "PC". I did test the double byte characters and it worked just fine. Im not sure what else you want me to do here.

When you click "Start Stream" sidequest will output the full scrcpy command to the console. To view the console click the little bug icon at the top and then in the section that opens click the "console" tab. From there you can see that the command is indeed encapsulated in double quotes ( it always has been ) and you can copy that command verbatim and paste it into command prompt to try to run scrcpy manually. Can you give this a try?

Hi there, I tested as your advice and I got an interesting results.

1. SideQuest does not open mirroring window and I copy and pasted SideQuest's command into command prompt.

C:\Users\1階のPC>"C:\Users\1階のPC\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy\scrcpy.exe" --crop 1600:900:2017:510 -b 8000000 --max-fps 0 --max-size 0 -n --window-title "SideQuest Stream" -s 1WMHH842XM0492
INFO: scrcpy 1.11 https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
adb: error: cannot stat '.\scrcpy-server': No such file or directory
ERROR: "adb push" returned with value 1
Press any key to continue...

2. Then I set SCRCPY_SERVER_PATH

C:\Users\1階のPC>set SCRCPY_SERVER_PATH=C:\Users\1階のPC\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy\scrcpy-server

C:\Users\1階のPC>"C:\Users\1階のPC\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy\scrcpy.exe" --crop 1600:900:2017:510 -b 8000000 --max-fps 0 --max-size 0 -n --window-title "SideQuest Stream" -s 1WMHH842XM0492
INFO: scrcpy 1.11 https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
adb: error: cannot stat 'C:\Users\1�K��PC\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy\scrcpy-server': No such file or directory
ERROR: "adb push" returned with value 1
Press any key to continue...

3. Finally I set SCRCPY_SERVER_PATH from single byte path

C:\Users\1階のPC>set SCRCPY_SERVER_PATH=C:\Users\urashita\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy\scrcpy-server

C:\Users\1階のPC>"C:\Users\1階のPC\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy\scrcpy.exe" --crop 1600:900:2017:510 -b 8000000 --max-fps 0 --max-size 0 -n --window-title "SideQuest Stream" -s 1WMHH842XM0492
INFO: scrcpy 1.11 https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
C:\Users\urashita\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\scrcpy\scrcpy-server: 1 files pushed. 2.3 MB/s
INFO: Initial texture: 1600x896

Then I got mirroring window.

I found that the problem is not SideQuest but scrcpy.
I will ask this issue to scrcpy project.
Thank you!

[urashita]
