Re: Jedi Survivor not Connecting video on Steam Remote Play

I'm having this same exact issue. I've played Jedi Survivor around 40 hours exclusively through steam remote play to my steam deck and now has stopped working. The game launches on my pc and when I stream to my steam deck it gets stuck on the splash loading screen with the blue loading circle at the bottom right. I can hear the game audio playing through my steam deck, it just never comes off the loading screen.

*Edited to say that every other steam game in my library is able to be streamed using remote play to steam deck with no issue. Seems to only be Jedi Survivor, leading me to believe it is not a Valve/Steam issue.

There is a workaround of adding EAdesktop.exe as a non steam game in your library. For me this appeared to not work at first but after restarting my PC it worked. The steps that worked for me are this:
Add as a non steam game the EADesktop.exe file to your steam library (should be in your program files in the C drive)
Restart your PC
Start up Steam deck, go to the newly added EADestop.exe in library. Don't stream yet
On your host PC make sure the EA App and the EA background service are closed (kill them in task manager)
Stream EADesktop.exe from your deck.
Now on the host PC, start jedi survivor from your steam library (this is what works for me, if I start it from the EA app it does not launch for some reason)
The game stream should appear as expected on your client monitor and audio. Hopefully!
Like I said, these steps are what are currently working for me. Hopefully it also works for you!
