Ubuntu Splashtop Streamer reboot issue solution

(Ubuntu 20.04, Splashtop Streamer v2.6.6.0 for Ubuntu)

In the Ubuntu version of Splashtop Streamer, the "Enable auto launch" feature does not work by default. Upon rebooting the computer, the following error occurs:

Fail to connect. Please restart SRStreamer service.

To fix this:

  • In Splashtop Streamer > Settings, check "Enable auto launch".
  • Open "Show Applications" (9-dot grid at the bottom-left of the screen).
  • Find and open "Startup Applications Preferences".
  • There should be a checked option named "Splashtop Streamer". Select it and click "Edit" on the right.
  • Replace the text in "Command" with the following:
/opt/splashtop-streamer/script/streamer-restart.sh
  • Click "Save", then "Close"

Next time when you reboot, the Streamer should start without errors.
