TeamSpeak 6 Screen Sharing inconsistently drops to 0x0 / 0 FPS / 0 Kbps

TeamSpeak 6 Client

Hello,

I am experiencing a very inconsistent issue with screen sharing in TeamSpeak 6.

When I start sharing my screen, the stream may work normally for some time, but then suddenly drops to 0x0 resolution, 0 FPS, and 0 Kbps upstream. At that point, the stream essentially stops sending any data.

The behavior is extremely inconsistent and I have not been able to identify a reliable pattern. It can sometimes even change when I interact with the TeamSpeak client itself. For example, simply moving the TeamSpeak window to another monitor can sometimes cause the screen stream to stop working.

I have also noticed that the behavior can sometimes vary depending on the number of people in the channel, although I cannot confirm that this is directly related to the issue.

I have already tested different encoders:

  • NVIDIA NVENC

  • Intel encoder

  • Internal Software encoder

The issue occurs with all of them.

I have also tested different bitrate settings, ranging from 640 Kbps up to 10,000 Kbps, and the problem still occurs. Because of this, the bitrate itself does not appear to be the cause.

What makes this more interesting is that other users on the same TeamSpeak server are also experiencing screen-sharing problems, including users who appear to be on different computers and networks. This makes me wonder whether there could be an issue related to the screen-sharing/P2P connection itself, rather than something specific to my system.

I also found this existing thread describing a very similar issue:

https://community.teamspeak.com/t/failed-to-join-stream-screen-share-session-already-registered-screen-share-session-is-stuck-on-loading/55152

In particular, the reports of the stream getting stuck at 0x0 / 0 FPS / 0 Kbps seem very similar to what I am experiencing.

Could this potentially be related to the P2P/NAT/connection handling used by TeamSpeak 6 screen sharing?

Has anyone experienced similar behavior, or is there any logging/debugging information I can provide that would help determine why the screen-sharing stream suddenly stops sending data?

Thank you!

0x0 suggests there’s a problem with the decoder. Or that no viewers have joined the stream yet. What’s the situation on the viewers’ end? Do they just see a gray screen, or are they still trying to join the stream and are stuck there? Have the people watching tried different decoders yet?

This is what a stream info looks like when no one is watching yet. Is it the same for you, or is the “target” at the top already 0x0 for you?

With the next update you will be able to set a custom port range, maybe that helps until the SFU releases (if the problem is p2p related and not encode/decoder specific)

I’m actually experiencing all three situations.

Sometimes the viewer sees a gray screen, sometimes another person just gets stuck loading, and occasionally someone can actually see my screen, but then the stream suddenly freezes. When that happens, the stream goes to 0x0, 0 FPS, and the bitrate drops to 0 Kbps or fluctuates between around 10–100 Kbps.

And regarding your screenshot, yes, mine also shows 0x0 and 0 FPS even when nobody is watching my screen.
