Can't play Battlefront II via Steam Link anymore

Hi, I used to play Star Wars Battlefront II on my TV via Steam Link app for mounths. I wanted to replay it after a while without launching the game, and some update of Origin and the game later, I can only see a black screen and ear the music. I've tried to reinstal Origin and the game, this hasn't change anything. I've tried to turn off Origin In-Game tab and it allows me to see something else than a black screen but it doesn't recognize my xbox controller and lag a lot.

Once again, everything was working very fine few mouths before, and I don't have this issues with Burnout Paradise.

I would really like EA to do something to allow me to replay this game normally.

    Hey @SuperGhis  Thanks for the details! 

    Did you try to move the SWBF2 document folder to desktop and start the game and see if that helps. 

    Can you upload a dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have.

    Hi, thanks for the reply, but I have a doubt about your recomandation.
    I'm not sure what you expect by moving my game folder to the desktop. The game itself works fine on my computer, but I can't play the game through Steam Link on my TV.

    This fonction was fully supported before some updates done on the game and it continues to work perfectly with other Origin games (Burtount Paradise actualy).

    So it seems to come from an issue with the game itself introduced by an update that causes conflicts with Steam Link app.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hey @SuperGhis  for the document part is to see if there is anything in there blocking steam link and SWBF2 cooperating with each other.

    Do you have Battlefield V and does it work there with steam link?
