What happened?
Description
After connecting to a Gaming Rig, the mouse cursor starts flickering inside OpenNOW.
The stream itself is perfectly smooth (60 FPS), there is no input lag, and the issue only affects the cursor rendering.
The cursor is normal before connecting to the Gaming Rig.
Closing OpenNOW restores the cursor to normal.
Environment
OpenNOW: v0.5.2
OS: Windows 11
GPU: AMD Radeon 610M
DirectX Backend: D3D11 (also tested Auto and D3D12)
Native Streaming: ON/OFF (same result)
Expected behavior
The cursor should remain smooth after connecting.
Actual behavior
The cursor flickers/blinks whenever it moves.
Additional information
The official GeForce NOW client does not have this issue on the same PC.
