Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: My extension isn't working, am I doing something wrong?
A: The extension should work immediately after install. If the features found in Getting Started are not showing up, please contact me on the Discord server.

Q: Why has my latency gone down from 1.4?
A: The latency statistic in Stadia+ 2.0 has been changed to more accurately represent actual latency. This means most people will see a reduction in displayed latency, despite the perceived latency staying the same.

Q: Where did the frames dropped statistic go?
A: Stadia+ 2.0 uses a different API for network monitoring than Stadia+ 1.4 did. I have not yet been able to find any good statistic showing dropped frames.

Q: What do the statistics in the Network Monitor mean?
A: See the Network Monitor article for information about each of the statistics.

Q: Are the statistics shown in bits or bytes?
A: Statistics shown in bits will be displayed as Xbit (e.g kbit, Mbit, Gbit). Statistics shown in bytes will be displayed as XB (e.g kB, MB, GB).

Q: Which one of VP9 and H264 is better?
A: This largely depends on your system and network setup. I recommend trying both out and choosing whichever feels the best to you. VP9 is required to run 4K.

Q: I am not getting 4K with the force 4K option, what am I doing wrong?
A: The force 4K option is largely dependent on your system, your network and the current situation. It is speculated that Google may have started limiting the amount of clients getting 4K simultaneously due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Q: How can I support you / is there any page I can donate to?
A: At the moment, I do not accept donations. This may change in the future.
