GeForce Now: Streaming Games not Supported in this Browser

Jimprovise

From what I can tell based on general forum/Reddit posts, some Vivaldi users are able to run the GeForce Now game streaming without issue. Has anyone experienced an issue of GeForce stating Vivaldi fails to support game streaming? If so, has anyone found a solution?

I just tested, using ModHeader to mask as Chrome 107 and Edge (Chrome 106) even with the sec-ch-ua header edited. And it still gives the "not supported" message. I'm guessing they use some advanced UA sniffing, maybe based on Local Storage, which is impossible to override.

There's also probably no good technical reason why it shouldn't work, they just can't be bothered supporting anything else than the majors.

This is the kind of BS little browsers have to deal with... disgusting
